Knees and ankles were the joints commonly involved. The incidence of elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C reactive protein, with haemoglobin levels below 10 g/dl was highest in the systemic onset variety. The polyarticular and systemic onset group responded well to aspirin, while the pauciarticular group responded well to indomethacin.engArthritis, Juvenile Rheumatoid --bloodAspirin --therapeutic useChildChronic DiseaseFemaleHumansIbuprofen --therapeutic useIndiaIndomethacin --therapeutic useMalePattern of rheumatic diseases in south India.
