At the world’s premier arthritis conference, the American College of Rheumatology Annual Meeting (ACR), taking place in San Diego on November 3rd-8th, leading investigators from the United States, Canada and Egypt will present new data on the 14-3-3η blood test. Several of these studies grow the body of evidence of 14-3-3η’s important role as an early diagnostic test that assists with rheumatoid arthritis patient management along the disease course. As a highlight of these new data are two studies describing how 14-3-3η testing can assist with arthritis diagnosis in children. Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is an ambiguous disease, with several subtypes, that new blood tests like 14-3-3η can help better characterize. As a marker of joint damage progression risk, it is expected that 14-3-3η will have an increasingly important role in the management of multiple types of arthritis.
