'Pregnancy in adult-onset idiopathic inflammatory myopathy': Report from a cohort of myositis patients from a single center

摘要

Background and purpose: Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are systemic diseases, characterized by the presence of an inflammatory muscle infiltrate. Although more frequent in women, its relationship with pregnancy has not been extensively studied. Our goal was to analyze the interaction between pregnancy and myositis in a cohort of IIM women from a single center.
