Nunzio Bottini & Gary S. Firestein Published online: 22 September 2015 p623 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.126 Defining key advances in any medical discipline can be challenging, but is especially so in rheumatology—a rapidly advancing field so broad that it defies traditional classifications. Here, we approach the Sisyphean task of summarizing the translational advances in rheumatology in the past decade within several broad categories of basic research.

Seza Ozen Published online: 22 September 2015 p625 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.130 The study of rheumatic diseases that affect children has thrived in the past 10 years. A look at several important advances in this area illustrates how organized collaborations and advanced technologies are contributing to the understanding and, ultimately, to improving the treatment of these disorders.

William H. Robinson & Rong Mao Published online: 06 October 2015 p626 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.137 Technological advances over the past decade have revolutionized many areas of rheumatology, ranging from diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic development to the mechanistic understanding of rheumatic diseases. This overview highlights key technological innovations and discusses the major impact that these developments are having on research and clinical practice.

John D. Isaacs Published online: 13 October 2015 p628 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.138 In the past 10 years, the rheumatology community has seen an explosion in the number of new therapies licensed for use across the rheumatic diseases, many with outstanding clinical success. Here, the drugs and strategies that constitute landmarks in the management of rheumatic diseases are highlighted. Full Text | PDF | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Epidemiology research in rheumatology—progress and pitfalls Deborah P. M. Symmons Published online: 07 July 2015 p631 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.92 Epidemiological research—the study of the distribution and determinants of disease in populations—relies on knowledge of different data sources, solid study designs and the accurate interpretation of study results. Understanding the methodology of population and clinical epidemiology studies is vital for the study of the distribution and determinants of outcomes in patients with rheumatic diseases.

| Neurogenic neuroinflammation in fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome Geoffrey Littlejohn Published online: 04 August 2015 p639 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.100 Fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) share many pathophysiological mechanisms. Central mechanisms predominate in both disorders, although peripheral mechanisms such as neurogenic neuroinflammation also contribute to their clinical features, albeit to differing degrees. This article discusses the evidence suggesting that neurogenic neuroinflammation is an important and potentially targetable link between the two disorders.

| Global epidemiology of gout: prevalence, incidence and risk factors Chang-Fu Kuo, Matthew J. Grainge, Weiya Zhang & Michael Doherty Published online: 07 July 2015 p649 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.91 This comprehensive overview brings together the latest data on the epidemiology of gout in various parts of the world. The authors discuss regional and temporal patterns in gout prevalence and incidence as well as known risk factors for the disease.

| Pathogenesis and targeted treatment of skin injury in SLE Guo-Min Deng & George C. Tsokos Published online: 04 August 2015 p663 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.106 Ultraviolet light, immune cells, cytokines and deposition of immunoglobulins all seem to have a role in the development of skin lesions in SLE. This Review discusses recent advances in understanding of the cellular, cytokine and molecular processes underlying the cutaneous manifestations of SLE, focussing on processes or molecules that could potentially be exploited therapeutically.

| Redox distress and genetic defects conspire in systemic autoinflammatory diseases Georg Varga, Marco Gattorno, Dirk Foell & Anna Rubartelli Published online: 04 August 2015 p670 | doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2015.105 Inflammation can be initiated by exogenous pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or by endogenous damage-associated molecular patters (DAMPs), but the contribution of each activation mechanism to reduction-oxidation (redox) stress and, ultimately, to the immunopathogenesis of autoinflammatory diseases remains elusive. In this Review, Varga and colleagues discuss how improved knowledge of mechanisms of inflammation initiation and propagation might help identify new therapeutic targets for patients with autoinflammatory diseases.
