Inclusion criteria: - Male or female juvenile idiopathic arthritis patients, between 6 months and 18 years of age, inclusive. - History of JIA documented at an experienced pediatric rheumatology clinic. All JIA subtypes can be included if patients have at least 1 low ESR (*20 mm/Hr) and/or CRP (*10 mg/L) value measured at a preceding visit (timelines of the precedent visit is defined as per the patient standard of care) or at the study visit, and assessed as being independent from concomitant anti-inflammatory/anti-infective treatments at the discretion of the investigator. - Signed informed consent/assent obtained from patient and patient*s legal representative (parents or guardians) according to local regulations.

(Patients who have been screened for MPS through urinary GAG and tested normal may be included in the study). - Patients with at least 1 high ESR (>20 mm/Hr) and/or CRP (>10 mg/L) value measured at a preceding visit or at the study visit, not related to an identified concomitant infection or intercurrent illness at the discretion of the investigator. - Patient has any medical condition or extenuating circumstance which, in the opinion of the Investigator, could interfere with the patient*s ability to complete the study procedure, or with the interpretation of study results.
