OBJECTIVE: We aimed to compile evidence for the efficacy and safety of therapeutic options for the peripheral arthritis domain of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) for the revised 2021 Group in Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA) treatment recommendations.METHODS: A working group consisting of clinicians and patient research partners was convened. We reviewed the evidence from new randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for PsA treatment from February 19, 2013, to August 28, 2020. We used the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE)-informed approach to derive evidence for the classes of therapeutic options for 3 patient groups: (1) naïve to treatment, (2) inadequate response to conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs), and (3) inadequate response to biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs). Recommendations were derived through consensus meetings.RESULTS: The evidence review included 69 RCTs. We derived GRADE evidence for each class of therapeutic options and achieved consensus for the recommendations. For patients naïve to treatment, the working group strongly recommends csDMARDs (methotrexate, sulfasalazine, leflunomide) and phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors, and emphasizes regular assessment and early escalation to achieve treatment target. bDMARDs (tumor necrosis factor inhibitors [TNFi], interleukin 17 inhibitors [IL-17i], IL-12/23i, IL-23i) and Janus kinase inhibitors ( JAKi) are also strongly recommended. For patients with inadequate response to csDMARDs, we strongly recommend TNFi, IL-17i, IL-12/23i, IL-23i, and JAKi. For those who had prior experience with bDMARDs, we strongly recommend a second TNFi, IL-17i, IL-23i, and JAKi. The evidence supporting nonpharmacological interventions was very low. An expert panel conditionally recommends adequate physical activity, smoking cessation, and diet to control weight gain.CONCLUSION: Evidence supporting optimal therapy for

Since the neonatal stage, early detection of behavioral markers of subtle impairments in neurodevelopment is a field still under growth. The objective of this review is to describe the mechanisms underlying neonatal behavior during the habituation scale of NBAS, that emphasizes the visual pathway. The role of habituation and the regulation of behavioral states are highlighted during the first stimuli and the second to ten stimuli, during performance of NBAS. Those processes represent a fundamental capacity for newborns´ adaptation and are discussed in line to later cognitive performance., Desde la etapa neonatal, la detección temprana de marcadores conductuales de alteraciones sutiles en el neurodesarrollo, es un campo todavía en crecimiento. El objetivo de esta revisión es describir los mecanismos que subyacen a la conducta del neonato durante la aplicación de la subescala de habituación que forma parte de la Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS), con especial énfasis en la vía visual. Se destacan el papel de la habituación y la regulación de los estados de conciencia como los mecanismos fundamentales durante el primer estímulo y del segundo al décimo estímulo, en dicha escala. Estos procesos representan una capacidad fundamental para la adaptación del recién nacido y se discuten sus posibles implicaciones en el desempeño cognitivo posterior.
