Inflammatory disease and related syndromes are growing in prevalence among Western societies. These diseases affect close to 60 million people in the US and place a significant burden on the healthcare system.1 Characterized by relatively slow development, these diseases and syndromes prove challenging to diagnose, leading to delayed treatment against the backdrop of inevitable disability progression.
Patients require healthcare attention but are initially hidden from a clinician's view by the seemingly generalized, non-specific symptoms.
