Objective
To study the incidence of systemic connective tissue diseases (CTD) and of systemic onset juvenile arthritis (S-JA) in children aged 0 to 15 years.
Methods
A nationwide, prospective, hospital based series of new patients from Finland collected during a 4-year period and supplemented with data from the National Hospital Discharge Register.
The population at risk was 1.02 million.
Classification criteria developed for adult CTD and the American Rheumatism Association criteria for JA were used.
Results
The annual incidence rates found were as follows : systemic lupus erythematosus 0.37, polymyositis/dermatomyositis (PM/DM) 0.30, mixed connective tissue disease 0.10, scleroderma 0.05, and S-JA 0.47/100,000.
