Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: In a significant proportion of patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), serum amyloid A (SAA) remains elevated during attack-free periods, thereby increasing the risk of developing amyloidosis. The aim of the study was to determine various correlates of elevated SAA and evaluate the role of SAA measurement in the diagnosis and management of FMF. METHODS: We reviewed the medical files of all...
