To assess the usefulness of serum levels of 14-3-3 ETA in the diagnosis of RA. This is a case-control study which involved 3 groups group 1 included 30 RA patients, group 2 included 30 primary osteoarthritis patients and group 3 included 30 healthy controls. All study subjects were assessed using laboratory investigations as CBC, ESR, CRP, RF, ACPA as well as serum levels of 14-3-3 ETA protein which were measured through ELISA technique. Mean ± SD levels of 14-3-3 ETA were significantly higher among RA compared to OA and control groups (0.7(0.5), 0.2 (0.1) and 0.3(0.1) ng/ml, respectively) with a sensitivity of 79.3%, specificity of 81.7%, positive predicted value of 86% and negative predicted value of 81%. 14-3-3 ETA also had high diagnostic OR (1478.04). A statistically significant correlation (r= 0.259) was found between serum levels of 14-3-3 ETA and ESR. In conclusion, 14-3-3 ETA is a novel marker for RA that should be used in conjunction with RF and ACPA for diagnosis of the disease.Psoriasis vulgaris (PsV) is common, incurable, pro-inflammatory systemic disease with waving course that impacts the life quality. This justifies the need for discovering simple biomarkers with key roles in monitoring systemic inflammation and assessing the disease severity. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and mean platelet volume (MPV) have been suggested as markers of inflammation. We aimed to investigate the role of NLR, PLR and MPV as biomarkers for PsV disease and to examine their possible association with disease severity assessed by Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI score) in Egyptian psoriatic patients. This case control study included 36 PsV
