Global surface ultraviolet radiation intensity may modulate the clinical and immunologic expression of autoimmune muscle disease.

Arthritis and rheumatism - 1 Aug 2003

Okada Satoshi, Weatherhead Elizabeth, Targoff Ira N, Wesley Robert, Miller Frederick W

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine if geoclimatic factors may influence the nature and frequency of dermatomyositis (DM), polymyositis, and associated autoantibodies around the world. METHODS: We assessed, in the first global evaluation of these conditions, the relationship between 13 geoclimatic variables that may modulate disease and the relative proportion of DM and its associated autoantibody anti-Mi-2, directed against...
