The clinical characteristics of pharyngeal and laryngeal lesions in anti-MDA5-positive dermatomyositis patients
1. Pharyngeal and laryngeal lesions are not uncommon in anti-MDA5-positive DM, these patients have poorer nutritional status and more severe lung lesions; 2. Positive anti-Ro-52 antibodies and high serum ferritin levels are closely associated with pharyngeal and laryngeal involvement in anti-MDA5-positive DM; 3. Electronic laryngoscopy plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and evaluation of pharyngeal and laryngeal conditions.
