Knee Surgery Outcomes Linked with Education Level

Lisa Rapaport  |  December 7, 2017

(Reuters Health)—Patients who live in low-income communities and lack a college education may have worse pain after knee replacement surgery than their more educated neighbors, a recent study suggests. Two years after total knee replacement surgeries, patients in poor communities who hadn’t gone to college had average pain scores that were about 10 points worse…

Safety, Tolerability & Pharmacodynamics of ABT-122 in Patients with RA

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  December 5, 2017

The introduction of biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) has greatly expanded the treatment options for managing rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In many patients, biologic DMARDs improve clinical symptoms, improve function and slow disease progression. Biologic DMARDs are recommended as add-on treatment to conventional synthetic DMARDs, such as methotrexate (MTX) in patients who experienced an incomplete response…

Lacrimal & Tear Fluid Yield Clues to Dry Eye Disease

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  December 4, 2017

A recent study suggests novel markers of dry eye disease can be found in the lacrimal fluid and tear fluid of patients. Researchers analyzed the proteins in these fluids and found immune response-related proteins are upregulated at the protein level in lacrimal fluid of patients with dry eye disease and may be an important biomarker…

Multimodal Imaging May Uncover Neural Mechanisms in Pediatric Neuropsychiatric Lupus

Carina Stanton  |  December 1, 2017

In clinical practice, many unknowns exist about how SLE affects the brain—particularly in children. To help these young children battling pediatric SLE, Andrea Knight, MD, MSCE, is examining how advanced neuroimaging techniques may uncover potential inflammatory and non-inflammatory mechanisms of neuropsychiatric dysfunction in lupus…

Obesity’s Effects on Inflammatory Markers in Patients with RA

Arthritis Care & Research  |  November 29, 2017

New research has examined the effect of obesity on inflammatory markers, specifically C-reactive protein (CRP) level and erythrocyte sedimentation rate, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Researchers found higher BMIs were associated with higher CRP levels in women both with and without RA, suggesting the phenomenon is related to adiposity and not an indication of disease activity. For men with RA, low BMI was associated with higher CRP levels, which proved to be RA-specific but not a direct causal effect of adiposity…

European Commission Approves Subcutaneous Belimumab for SLE; FDA Safety Alert for Febuxostat

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  November 29, 2017

Subcutaneous belimumab has been approved in the EU to help treat patients with active autoantibody-positive SLE…

SIRT1: A Therapeutic Target for Osteoporosis?

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  November 27, 2017

New research has found the sirtuin family of proteins may be a positive regulator of bone mass. In the study, pharmacological activation of SIRT1 in mice resulted in increased bone mass, suggesting the pharmacological activation of SIRT1 may protect against osteoporosis…

Bisphosphonate Drug Holiday & Hip Fracture Risk

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  November 21, 2017

New research found women on bisphosphonate therapy who take a drug holiday experience a higher rate of hip fracture…

Year in Review: Expert Covers 2017’s Key Clinical Findings

Thomas R. Collins  |  November 20, 2017

In a Year in Review session at the 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting, Daniel Solomon, MD, MPH, highlighted the latest and most intriguing aspects of clinical research on rheumatic diseases from 2017. His discussion touched on medical therapy, genetics, the effects of bariatric surgery and diet, cancer risk and more…

Psoriasis Tied to Higher Risk of Serious Liver Disease

Lisa Rapaport  |  November 13, 2017

(Reuters Health)—People with chronic inflammatory disorders, such as psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), may have an increased risk of developing serious liver damage, a recent study suggests. These inflammatory disorders are often treated with methotrexate, a medication linked to an increased risk of liver disease. For the current study, researchers followed more than 1 million…
