Arthropathy in Dressler's syndrome.
نویسنده
چکیده
Three patients developed a polyarthritis in association with Dressler's (post-myocardial infarction) syndrome. Joint involvement was more pronounced in the upper limbs and persisted many months after other features of Dressler's syndrome had settled. In 2 cases the findings in the joints were slight and might have been overlooked but for the persistently raised ESR. There was a prompt symptomatic response to prednisone.

In this paper,we translate Dressler's nonmonotonic ATMS with out-assumption [Dr88] into an annotated logic program with strong negation(ALPSN) which was proposed in [NS94]. Nonmonotonic justi cations and assumption nodes of Dressler's ATMS are translated into annotated logic program clauses with strong negation. The most important semantics for Dressler's ATMS is the extension. On the other han...
