The highest risk of uveitis in Juvenile idiopathic ahritis (JIA) is associated with _______: (A) RF positive polyahritis, (B) Systemic JIA, (C) ANA-positive oligoahritis, (D) Enthesis-related ahritis
Answer is C. ANA positive oligoahritis is associated with the highest risk for uveitis. The presence of a positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) confers increased risk for uveitis in children with JIA and requires periodic slit-lamp examination.
