Autoimmune/inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants. Vertaald: Autoimmuun/ontstekingssyndroom gestimuleerd door hulpstoffen. Bij ASIA is silicone de hulpstof (adjuvans) die het immuunsysteem activeert.

Vanwege de chronische prikkeling door het siliconen borstimplantaat, in combinatie met een genetische gevoeligheid, kan een auto-immuunreactie ontstaan met typerende klachten. (zie hieronder bij criteria)

Belangrijkste criteria ASIA  >> 

• Blootstelling aan externe prikkels  door infecties, vaccinatie, siliconen (adjuvant)

• Verschijnselen van een van de klinische verschijnselen:  

• Spierpijn, myositis (spierontsteking) of spierzwakte                  

• Gewrichtspijn of gewrichtsontsteking

•  Chronische vermoeidheid, slecht slapen of slaapstoornis

• Neurologische verschijnselen die geassocieerd worden met demyelinisatie

• Cognitieve veranderingen, geheugenverlies

•  Koorts, droge mond

• Door het verwijderen van het hulpmiddel van siliconen, treedt  verbetering op

• Typische biopsie van de betrokken organen

Minder belangrijke criteria

• Verschijnen van auto-antistoffen gericht tegen de verwachte adjuvantia

• Andere klinische verschijnselen (zoals prikkelbare darm syndroom)

• Specifieke HLA (Humaan Leukocyten Antigen) (zoals HLA DRB1, HLA DQB1)

• Inleiding van een auto-immuunziekte (zoals Multiple Sclerose, Systemische Sclerose) >> 

De symptomen lijken erg op die van Fibromyalgie, zoals ernstige vermoeidheid en spierklachten >>

Ook lijken de symptomen op het Syndroom van Sjögren, zoals droge ogen en droge mond >>
