AOSD adult onset Still’s disease, RA rheumatoid arthritis, HC healthy controls, ESR erythrocyte sedimentation rate, CRP C-reactive protein, AST aspartate transaminase, ALT alanine transaminase, ANA antinuclear antibody, RF rheumatoid factor. DAS-28, disease activity score including 28 joints. All values are presented as numbers (with percentages) or means ± standard deviations. The systemic scoring system of Pouchot et al. [28] assigns a score from 0 to 12 with 1 point for each of the following manifestations: fever, typical rash, pleuritis, pneumonia, pericarditis, hepatomegaly or abnormal liver function test data, splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, leukocytosis ≥ 15,000/mm2, sore throat, myalgia, and abdominal pain
