Course of uveitis in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA): Five years follow-up data from a prospective multicenter Inception Cohort of Newly diagnosed patients with JIA (ICON-JIA) study
Despite intensified DMARD treatment, almost half of the children experience JIAU-related ocular complications after 5 years of disease; however, visual acuity mostly remains good. Uveitis inactivity can be achieved frequently, but is often limited in duration. Lower JIA activity appears to correlate with uveitis inactivity on and off medication.
