Introduction

Abstract

Welcome to the Thai Journal of Rheumatology, now entering its second year with this inaugural issue of Volume 2, Issue 1. This journal remains dedicated to serving as a reliable academic resource and platform for knowledge exchange in the field of rheumatology, committed to delivering high-quality content to enhance the understanding of diseases and improve patient care.

In this second year, we are proud to present articles covering significant topics. In the research section, we feature the link between the psoriatic arthritis comorbidity index and clinical characteristics in patients with psoriatic arthritis. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive review on immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy and an intriguing case report titled Sertraline-induced vasculitis and The Seroconversion for Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated protein5 (Anti-MDA5), which offers valuable insights for patient care. Furthermore, this issue includes an academic quiz designed to stimulate knowledge and engage our readers.

On this occasion, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to the editorial team, authors, and contributors who made this journal possible. We hope that readers find the articles in this journal beneficial and inspiring.
