Abstract:
Various criteria have been proposed to classify the inflammatory myositides (IIMs) polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM). However, none have received universal acceptance. Our aim was to assess the performance of the main criteria used to classify IIM. Specialist consultant diagnosis was considered the gold standard.
