Overview
In 1972, Gordon C.Sharp was the first physician who defined MCTD. It has been the first rheumatic disease syndrome defined by a serologic test. In 1976, Alarcon-Segovia proposed criteria for classifying MCTD among all types of connective tissue diseases. It demonstrates the close association between MCTD and Sjogren's syndrome.
Historical Perspective
- In 1972, Gordon C.Sharp was the first physician who defined MCTD.
- MCTD has been the first rheumatic disease syndrome that has represented by a serologic test (positive U1RNP).[1][2]
- In 1976, Alarcon-Segovia proposed criteria for MCTD classifying between all types of connective tissue diseases. It represents the close association between MCTD and Sjogren's syndrome.
- In 1987, Sharp, Alarcon-Segovia and The Research Committee of Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare for MCTD (JMHW) suggested three groups of criteria for diagnosing MCTD.[3]
