Disease activity measures in juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) correlate with serum MRP8/14 levels. (A) Mean MRP8/14 concentrations were measured by ELISA in serum from 32 JDM patients and 32 paediatric controls, * P <0.05. (B) Serum MRP8/14 concentrations in JDM patients according to treatment status, n = 15 untreated, n = 12 on prednisolone+/−methotrexate, n = 3 methotrexate alone. (C) Correlation of serum MRP8/14 with physician global assessment (PGA), n = 26, (D) childhood myositis assessment score (CMAS), n = 26, (E) childhood health assessment questionnaire (CHAQ), n = 12 and (F) creatine kinase (CK), n = 25. Spearman’s Rank was used to assess correlations between variables.
