The Importance of Research and Awareness
Increased awareness can lead to earlier diagnosis, more effective treatments, and improved patient outcomes #research #genetics #autoinflammatoryaware

Diagnosis
Diagnosis typically involves a combination of clinical evaluation, family history, and genetic testing to identify specific mutations associated with the disorder #diagnosing #genetics

Treatment approaches
These therapies, referred to as Interleukin-1 blockers, help prevent the consequential damage to the body's tissues, offering relief and improved quality of life for individuals with these disorders #treatment #qualityoflife

Role of Cytokines
Cytokines play a significant role in the body's immune responses, particularly in inflammation and infection control. #cytokines

Understanding Autoinflammatory Conditions
Autoinflammatory conditions represent a group of disorders characterized by seemingly unprovoked inflammation caused by the innate immune system.#autoinflammatoryaware

We need worldwide patients registries to help inform research and a better understanding of these conditions, globally. #AutoinflammatoryAware #patientregistries #prevalence

Here in the UK, only 24 genes are tested on the NHS. However, there are around 49 genes discovered that are associated to Autoinflammatory conditions. The genes identified can be found on the European Patient Registry, Infevers: infevers.umai-montpellier.fr/web/index.php
