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.

MC1R variants in childhood and adolescent melanoma: a retrospective pooled analysis of a multicentre cohort.
Germline variants in the melanocortin 1 receptor gene (MC1R) might increase the risk of childhood and adolescent melanoma, but a clear conclusion is challenging because of the low number of studies and cases. We assessed the association of MC1R variants with childhood and adolescent melanoma in a large study comparing the prevalence of MC1R variants in child or adolescent patients with melanoma to that in adult patients with melanoma and in healthy adult controls.
