Cryopyrin-Associated Periodic Syndromes (CINCA Syndrome; Chronic Infantile Neurological, Cutaneous, and Articular Syndrome; Cryopyrinopathy; Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome; Familial Cold Urticaria; IOMID; Infantile Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease; Muckle-Wells Syndrome; Multisystem Inflammatory Disease, Neonatal-Onset; NOMID; Neonatal Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease)

A group of rare autosomal dominant diseases, commonly characterized by atypical urticaria (hives) with systemic symptoms that develop into end-organ damage. The atypical hives do not involve T-cell or autoantibody. Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome includes three previously distinct disorders: Familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome; Muckle-Wells syndrome; and CINCA syndrome, that are now considered to represent a disease continuum, all caused by NLRP3 protein mutations.
