Dear Colleagues,

This is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal published by MDPI and listed under PubMed as clinical and preclinical research with an impact factor of 2.835.
This issue offers authors with the opportunity to publish their latest studies on practice-based learning in the care of children with rheumatic diseases for primary care providers and supportive literature advocating for medications that may need authorization from insurance companies. We welcome original research papers and reviews on autoimmune, autoinflammatory, and immune dysregulatory conditions in children.
