For three-quarters of a century, glucocorticoids (GCs) have been used to treat rheumatic and autoimmune diseases. Over these 75 years, our understanding of GCs binding to nuclear receptors, mainly the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and their molecular mechanisms has changed dramatically. Initially, in the late 1950s, GCs were considered important regulators of energy metabolism. By the 1970s/1980s, they were characterised as ligands for hormone-inducible transcription factors that regulate many aspects of cell biology and physiology. More recently, their impact on cellular metabolism has been rediscovered. Our understanding of cell-type-specific GC actions and the crosstalk between various immune and stromal cells in arthritis models has evolved by investigating conditional GR mutant mice using the Cre/LoxP system. A major achievement in studying the complex, cell-type-specific interplay is the recent advent of omics technologies at single-cell resolution, which will provide further unprecedented insights into the cell types and factors mediating GC responses. Alongside gene-encoded factors, anti-inflammatory metabolites that participate in resolving inflammation by GCs during arthritis are just being uncovered. The translation of this knowledge into therapeutic concepts will help tackle inflammatory diseases and reduce side effects. In this review, we describe major milestones in preclinical research that led to our current understanding of GC and GR action 75 years after the first use of GCs in arthritis.

Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) and adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) are considered the same disease, but a common approach for diagnosis and management is still missing.
Methods
In May 2022, EULAR and PReS endorsed a proposal for a joint task force (TF) to develop recommendations for the diagnosis and management of sJIA and AOSD. The TF agreed during a first meeting to address four topics: similarity between sJIA and AOSD, diagnostic biomarkers, therapeutic targets and strategies and complications including macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). Systematic literature reviews were conducted accordingly.
Results
The TF based their recommendations on four overarching principles, highlighting notably that sJIA and AOSD are one disease, to be designated by one name, Still’s disease.
Fourteen specific recommendations were issued. Two therapeutic targets were defined: clinically inactive disease (CID) and remission, that is, CID maintained for at least 6 months. The optimal therapeutic strategy relies on early use of interleukin (IL-1 or IL-6 inhibitors associated to short duration glucocorticoid (GC). MAS treatment should rely on high-dose GCs, IL-1 inhibitors, ciclosporin and interferon- inhibitors. A specific concern rose recently with cases of severe lung disease in children with Still’s disease, for which T cell directed immunosuppressant are suggested. The recommendations emphasised the key role of expert centres for difficult-to-treat patients. All overarching principles and recommendations were agreed by over 80% of the TF experts with a high level of agreement.
Conclusion
These recommendations are the first consensus for the diagnosis and management of children and adults with Still’s disease.
