As the treatment arsenal for children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) has grown in recent decades, follow-up studies are needed on children diagnosed in the biological treatment era to assess whether this has improved results. Our aim was to study the epidemiology and results of JIA in the south of Sweden using a cohort based on the population of children with a validated diagnosis of JIA collected over 9 years. Potential cases of JIA between 2002 and 2010 were collected after searching the database, using the ICD codes M08-M09. The study area was Skåne, the southernmost county in Sweden (1.24 million inhabitants; 17.6% under 16 years of age). The diagnosis of AJI was validated and sub-categorized by the examination of medical records on the basis of criteria defined by the International League of Associations for Rheumatism (ILAR). The parameters on the disease activity and the pharmacological treatment were recorded each year until the end of the study period (December 31, 2015).
