The diagnosis and classification of amyopathic dermatomyositis: a historical review and assessment of existing criteria
Diagnostic criteria are used to identify a patient having a disease in a clinical setting, whereas classification criteria create a well‐defined population for research purposes. The diagnosis and classification of amyopathic dermatomyositis (ADM) have not been recognized by most existing criteria for idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs). To address this, several criteria were proposed to define ADM either as a distinct disease entity or as a subset of the spectrum of IIMs.
