- Still syndrome
- Adult onset Still's syndrome (AOSD)

Note(s)This section has been translated automatically.
Initially, the term "autoinflammatory syndromes" was coined for a small group of familial fever syndromes(see below Fever syndromes, hereditary, periodic; see below. Immunodeficiency primary (autoinflammatory diseases). This term has since been expanded to include an increasing number of acquired disorders. In 2010, a drug-induced autoinflammatory syndrome was described, the "autoinflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA)." The "Gulf War Syndrome" also belongs to this acquired group of diseases.
Such reactions are interpreted as adverse drug reactions(ADR) occurring as a consequence of vaccination (see also AEFI ).
