Populærvitenskapelig sammendrag av avhandlingen:

 

Arthritis of the jaw with pain or no symptoms, reduced mouth opening and abnormal growth is common in chronic childhood arthritis (juvenile idiopathic arthritis, JIA). In this thesis new knowledge was obtained from cross-sectional, observational multicenter studies and a systematic literature review. We found that arthritis in the jaw was associated with reduced quality of life, higher disability and disease activity. Clinicians should pay special attention to the jaw in children with cervical spine involvement, a polyarticular course or longer disease duration. Bacteria associated with chronic inflammation are more common in saliva in JIA compared to healthy, and is associated with increased disease activity. Single steroid injection in jaw arthritis reduced joint inflammation without side effects and may supplement systemic treatment in older children. Finally, existing literature although with low evidence, supports surgical corrections of jaw deformities in patients with JIA.
