Cohorte d'Adultes et d'Enfants Avec Maladie de Still

Adult Onset Still Disease (AOSD) and Systemic onset Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (SoJIA) are two rare multifactorial diseases associated with systemic inflammation. These two forms AOSD and SoJIA are considered to be two facets of the same syndrome, combining four cardinal symptoms \[hectic fever\> 39 °, arthralgia or arthritis, skin rash, a leukocyte formula with more than 80% of neutrophils\]; lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly may also be found. There is an important biological inflammatory syndrome with elevation of the reactive C protein, of serum ferritin with a dramatic drop in the glycosylated fraction. The incidence of the disease is low, around 0.1/100,000 for adults and 0.6/100,000 for children. Its prevalence is approximately 1 to 3/100,000 and 3/100,000 for children, so there are approximately 500 to 1,500 adults and 450 children affected in France. It is subdivided into pediatric and adult forms according to the age of onset before or after 16 years. The prognosis of the disease is functional and vital. Macrophage activation syndrome (SAM) is frequently associated with either the onset of the disease or the initiation of treatment or concomitantly with viral reactivation. The course over time has mainly been studied in children and is variable: regression, course by flare-ups with term regression and chronic joint development. In adults we can also observe these 3 evolutionary modes. However, differences seem to exist between AOSD and SoJIA. The various clinical questions posed by this disease are as follows: * Why does it differentially affect two age groups of the population? * Why is the clinical expression heterogeneous with pure systemic or articular forms, the frequency of SAM, and rare organ damage? * Why is the evolution over time different with resolving monocyclic forms or polycyclic forms and sometimes chronic evolutions? These differences could be explained by distinct underlying pathogenic mechanisms. But at present, the pathophysiology of this entity remains unknown, although several hypotheses can be formulated involving several pathophysiological pathways. The pathogenesis of Still's disease has not yet been elucidated but there is a significant inflammatory reaction without the production of autoantibodies, which makes this disease a form of autoinflammatory syndrome with abnormalities of the innate immunity (activation of macrophages, strong elevations of pro-inflammatory cytokines: interleukins 1 and 18, possible abnormalities of inflammasomes and NK cells). The treatment is based on anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids with the usefulness of methotrexate and anti-TNF in the event of significant joint damage. Interleukin 1 and 6 inhibitors have been shown to be effective in this disease. In adults and children, there are forms that are refractory to treatment, with a risk of AA amyloidosis for these patients. The expected outcomes of this work are to improve knowledge of Still disease and patient management on the following aspects: * Comparison of pediatric and adult forms (which has never been done on a large number of patients), * Better understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of the disease, * The identification of early diagnostic/prognostic markers, * The possibility of promoting the evaluation of new therapies to come thanks to the constitution of an active file of patients with a standardized follow-up. The ACOSTILL study group is thus a unique collaboration of adult clinicians (rheumatologists and internists) and pediatricians, who have decided to unite their efforts to increase knowledge about the pathogenesis of Still disease in order to better understand the disease and improve care pathways. Many of them participated in the development of the national diagnostic and care protocol published in 2018.
