Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a group of inflammatory joint conditions that affect children and teens under the age of 16.
An Australian study has documented the physical, mental, social and financial burden of these conditions on young people and their families.
It has identified "unacceptable delays" in diagnosis, and an ongoing lack of awareness among health professionals.
