Abstrakt: | The aim of this narrative review is to synthesize existing evidence-based knowledge on juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis (JIA-U). We highlight epidemiology, pathophysiology, causes and genetics, risk factors, clinical features, diagnosis and screening, laboratory biomarkers, treatment options, trials with recent advances, and research challenges pertaining to JIA-U. The prevalence of JIA-U varies with different JIA subtypes, most frequently associated with the oligoarticular subtype. The risk factors involved in the development of JIA-U include younger age, antinuclear antibody (ANA) positivity, and the oligoarticular subtype of JIA, along with some specific major histocompatibility complex genes. Certain laboratory biomarkers, such as ANA, rheumatoid factor, interferon-λ, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and transthyretin, have been used in JIA-U diagnosis, progress monitoring, and prognostication. Clinical features of JIA-U can range from asymptomatic to ophthalmic symptoms like redness, blurred vision, decreased visual acuity, hypopyon, and posterior uveitis, which can lead to retinal detachment and macular edema. The management protocol involves topical and systemic steroids, cycloplegics, disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, biologic drugs, and surgical options. Early detection combined with prompt treatment is crucial to preventing irreversible vision loss in JIA-U. Competing Interests: The authors report no external funding or conflicts of interest.
