| ==Overview==
| |
| '''Neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease''' (also known as '''NOMID''', '''Chronic Neurologic Cutaneous and Articular Syndrome''', or '''CINCA''') is a [[rare disease|rare]] genetic [[periodic fever syndrome]] which causes uncontrolled inflammation in multiple parts of the body starting in the newborn period. Symptoms include skin rashes, severe [[arthritis]], and chronic [[meningitis]] leading to neurologic damage.
| |
| | |
| NOMID can result from a mutation in the [[CIAS1]] gene, which helps control inflammation. Mutations in this gene also cause [[familial cold urticaria]] and [[Muckle-Wells syndrome]]. NOMID has been successfully treated with the drug [[anakinra]].
