  • Rheumatology Certification Exam Blueprint
    Rheumatology Certification Examination Blueprint Purpose of the exam The exam is designed to evaluate the knowledge, diagnostic reasoning, and clinical judgment skills expected of the certified rheumatologist in the broad domain of the discipline. The ability to make appropriate diagnostic and management decisions that have important consequences for patients will be assessed. The exam may require recognition of common as well as rare clinical problems for which patients may consult a certified rheumatologist. Exam content Exam content is determined by a pre-established blueprint, or table of specifications. The blueprint is developed by ABIM and is reviewed annually and updated as needed for currency. Trainees, training program directors, and certified practitioners in the discipline are surveyed periodically to provide feedback and inform the blueprinting process. The primary medical content categories of the blueprint are shown below, with the percentage assigned to each for a typical exam: Medical Content Category % of Exam Basic and Clinical Sciences 7% Crystal-induced Arthropathies 5% Infections and Related Arthritides 6% Metabolic Bone Disease 5.5% Osteoarthritis and Related Disorders 5% Rheumatoid Arthritis 13% Seronegative Spondyloarthropathies 6.5% Other Rheumatic and Connective Tissue Disorders (ORCT) 16.5 % Lupus Erythematosus 9% Nonarticular and Regional Musculoskeletal Disorders 7% Nonrheumatic Systemic Disorders 9% Vasculitides 8.5% Miscellaneous Topics 2% 100% Exam questions in the content areas above may also address clinical topics in geriatrics, pediatrics, pharmacology and topics in general internal medicine that are important to the practice of rheumatology.

Abstract Metabolic bone disease is a frequent condition in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. In order to prevent the disease, the provision of high amount of calcium and phosphate in parenteral nutrition solutions and during transition to the full enteral feedings is crucial. Current practice supports early aggressive mineral supplementation. In this review, we will discuss data from the recent literature regarding the recommendation for supplementation of calcium, phosphate and vitamin D in VLBW infants and the interpretation of indirect markers of bone metabolism for screening, diagnosis and monitoring high risk infants, as well as to guide treatment.

  • Osteopetrosis Associated with Familial Paraplegia: Report of a Family
    Paraplegia (1975), 13, 143-152 OSTEOPETROSIS ASSOCIATED WITH FAMILIAL PARAPLEGIA: REPORT OF A FAMILY By SKIP JACQUES*, M.D., JOHN T. GARNER, M. D., DAVID JOHNSON, M.D. and C. HUNTER SHELDEN, M. D. Departments of Neurosurgery and Radiology, Huntington Memorial Hospital, Pasadena, Ca., and the Huntington Institute of Applied Medical Research, Pasadena, Ca., U.S.A. Abstract. A clinical analysis of three members of a family with documented osteopetrosis and familial paraplegia is presented. All patients had a long history of increased bone density and slowly progressing paraparesis of both legs. A thorough review of the literature has revealed no other cases which presented with paraplegia without spinal cord com­ pression. Although the etiologic factor or factors remain unknown, our review supports the contention that this is a distinct clinical entity. IN 1904, a German radiologist, Heinrich Albers-Schonberg, described a 26-year­ old man with multiple fractures and generalised sclerosis of the skeleton. The disease has henceforth commonly been known as Albers-Schonberg disease or marble osteopetrosis, a term first introduced by Karshner in 1922. Other eponyms are bone disease, osteosclerosis fragilis generalisata, and osteopetrosis generalisata. Approximately 300 cases had been reported in the literature by 1968. It has been generally accepted that the disease presents in two distinct forms, an infantile progressive disease and a milder form in childhood and adolescence. The two forms differ clinically and genetically. A dominant pattern of inheritance is usually seen in the benign type whereas the severe infantile form is usually inherited as a Mendelian recessive. This important distinction has not been well emphasised.

  • Metabolic Bone Disease in Chronic Kidney Disease
    Disease of the Month Metabolic Bone Disease in Chronic Kidney Disease Kevin J. Martin and Esther A. Gonza´lez Division of Nephrology, Saint Louis University, St. Louis, MO Metabolic bone disease is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is part of a broad spectrum of disorders of mineral metabolism that occur in this clinical setting and result in both skeletal and extraskeletal consequences. Detailed research in that past 4 decades has uncovered many of the mechanisms that are involved in the initiation and maintenance of the disturbances of bone and mineral metabolism and has been translated successfully from “bench to bedside” so that efficient therapeutic strategies now are available to control the complications of disturbed mineral metab- olism. Recent emphasis is on the need to begin therapy early in the course of CKD. Central to the assessment of disturbances in bone and mineral metabolism is the ability to make an accurate assessment of the bone disease by noninvasive means. This remains somewhat problematic, and although measurements of parathyroid hormone are essential, recently recognized difficulties with these assays make it difficult to provide precise clinical practice guidelines for the various stages of CKD at the present time. Further research and progress in this area continue to evaluate the appropriate interventions to integrate therapies for both the skeletal and extraskeletal consequences with a view toward improving patient outcomes.

  • Blueprint Genetics Osteopetrosis and Dense Bone Dysplasia Panel
    Osteopetrosis and Dense Bone Dysplasia Panel Test code: MA2001 Is a 25 gene panel that includes assessment of non-coding variants. Is ideal for patients with a clinical suspicion of osteopetrosis. The genes on this panel are included in the Comprehensive Growth Disorders / Skeletal Dysplasias and Disorders Panel. About Osteopetrosis and Dense Bone Dysplasia Autosomal dominant osteopetrosis (ADO, also known as Albers-Schönberg disease) is typically an adult-onset, more benign form whereas autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO), also termed malignant infantile osteopetrosis, presents soon after birth, is often severe and leads to death if left untreated. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO) is a genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous disease; most forms result from late endosomal trafficking defects that prevent osteoclast ruffled‐border formation. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can cure ARO if given in early life to patients with osteoclast‐intrinsic disease without neurodegenerative complications. New treatments that target RANKL/RANK signaling offer promise in ARO subtypes that currently cannot be cured by HSCT and to prevent hypercalcemia after HSCT. Paget’s disease is a common metabolic bone disease characterized by focal abnormalities of increased bone turnover affecting one or more sites throughout the skeleton, primarily the axial skeleton. Bone lesions in this disorder show evidence of increased osteoclastic bone resorption and disorganized bone structure. Genetic factors play an important role in the disease. In some cases, Paget’s disease is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner and the most common cause for this is a mutation in the SQSTM1 gene. Mutations in TNFRSF11A, TNFRSF11B and VCP have been identified in rare syndromes with Paget’s disease- like features.
