Present day therapy of juvenile idiopathic arthritis with the use of genetically engineered medicines in a third level regional hospital - results and problems
Background. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is accompanied by severe functional disabilities refractory to standard treatment with methotrexate. Recently introduced genetic engineering has significantly improved the functional state of the patients with persistent disease and stopped the progressive d...
