EULAR/PRES recommendations for vaccination of paediatric patients with autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases: update 2021
ObjectivesRecent insights supporting the safety of live-attenuated vaccines and novel studies on the immunogenicity of vaccinations in the era of biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in paediatric patients with autoimmune/inflammatory rheumatic diseases (pedAIIRD) necessitated updating the EULAR recommendations.MethodsRecommendations were developed using the EULAR standard operating procedures. Two international expert committees were formed to update the vaccination recommendations for both paediatric and adult patients with AIIRD. After a systematic literature review, separate recommendations were formulated for paediatric and adult patients. For pedAIIRD, six overarching principles and seven recommendations were formulated and provided with the level of evidence, strength of recommendation and Task Force level of agreement.ResultsIn general, the National Immunisation Programmes (NIP) should be followed and assessed yearly by the treating specialist. If possible, vaccinations should be administered prior to immunosuppressive drugs, but necessary treatment should never be postponed. Non-live vaccines can be safely given to immunosuppressed pedAIIRD patients. Mainly, seroprotection is preserved in patients receiving vaccinations on immunosuppression, except for high-dose glucocorticoids and B-cell depleting therapies. Live-attenuated vaccines should be avoided in immunosuppressed patients. However, it is safe to administer the measles–mumps–rubella booster and varicella zoster virus vaccine to immunosuppressed patients under specific conditions. In addition to the NIP, the non-live seasonal influenza vaccination should be strongly considered for immunosuppressed pedAIIRD patients.ConclusionsThese recommendations are intended for paediatricians, paediatric rheumatologists, national immunisation agencies, general practitioners, patients and national rheumatology societies to attain safe and effective vaccination and optimal infection prevention in immunocompromised pedAIIRD patients.

Clinical and autoantibody phenotypes of juvenile dermatomyositis
Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is a heterogeneous autoimmune inflammatory myositis with symmetrical proximal muscle weakness and a characteristic rash. Juvenile dermatomyositis is characterized by variable presentation and phenotypes. Detection of myositis autoantibodies is useful in improving JDM diagnosis and predicting the prognosis.
In this literature review based on case series we analyze clinical and autoantibody phenotypes of JDM in four patients who were hospitalized in one regional center in Ukraine during the last 3 years and three of them presented in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. The reviewed literature showed the last updates for the JDM diagnosis and the role of myositis autoantibodies in the prediction of disease course, systemic involvement, and malignancy risk.
The presence of anti-synthetase syndrome in all presented patients, mainly due to anti-PL-7 autoantibodies, encourages further study with more patients and with detection of other myositis-specific autoantibodies to identify or refute certain regional features.

Heroes of COVID-19
While COVID-19 made it necessary for many workers to stay home when cases were high in communities, some people still needed to provide important services. Essential workers like paramedics, farmers, grocery store workers, delivery drivers, manufacturers, government leaders and many others are everyday heroes who continue to make sure the food, care, and information we need is still accessible.
