Pain Linked to Inflammatory Lesions in Knee Osteoarthritis

Kathy Holliman  |  September 12, 2016

Inflammation in the knee was found to be associated with development of pain sensitization in recent research with a cohort from the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study (MOST). This research finding may indicate that targeting of inflammation could help reduce pain severity in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Tuhina Neogi, MD, PhD, says that her and her colleagues’ research,…

Gout Treatment & Care Remain Suboptimal

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  September 12, 2016

A recent analysis compared the care of patients with RA with that received by patients with gout, finding that hospitalization and costs for patients with gout have increased, but both are decreasing for patients with RA. Unlike RA, significant advances in treatment have not been made for gout, despite its increasing prevalence, and patients may land in the hospital unnecessarily…

Blacks, Asians at Higher Risk for Allopurinol-Related Skin Reactions

Deborah Levenson  |  September 8, 2016

Be careful when prescribing allo­purinol to black and Asian gout patients, a study newly advises. Black and Asian patients who take this ubiquitous, more-than-40-year-old medication are at much higher risk of certain serious skin reactions than are Caucasians or Hispanics. Compared with Caucasians, blacks who take allopurinol to lower blood urate levels have an increased…

Treating Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia Could Lower Risk of Developing Chronic Conditions

Martin Garber, DO  |  August 12, 2016

When uric acid becomes elevated in the human body, a variety of problems can develop, most notably gout—a painful, inflammatory arthritis caused by uric acid crystal deposition in joints. Chronically elevated uric acid can also lead to painful kidney stones. The majority of patients found to have hyperuricemia, however, never go on to develop gout…

How HLA-B27 Research Landmarks, Advances Relate to Ankylosing Spondylitis Pathogenesis

How HLA-B27 Research Landmarks, Advances Relate to Ankylosing Spondylitis Pathogenesis

Joerg Ermann, MD  |  July 13, 2016

The mechanistic link between human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is one of the great enigmas in rheumatology. The introduction of biological therapies that target tumor necrosis factor (TNF) or the interleukin (IL) 23/IL-17A axis has had a major impact on the quality of life for many patients with AS, and one…

Why Rheumatologists Should Focus on Patients’ Cardiovascular Health

Simon M. Helfgott, MD  |  July 10, 2016

Baseball is a great sport. It’s fascinating to watch the evolving duel between pitcher and batter. As the former employs their remarkably powerful and versatile rotator cuff and forearm flexor muscles to hurl blazing pitches, the latter engages their exceptionally honed hand–eye neural link to make contact with the ball. Baseball is the ultimate summertime…

Diagnostic Tests, Tips for Gluten-Induced Celiac Disease

Thomas R. Collins  |  June 13, 2016

CHICAGO—Celiac disease—the gluten-induced illness that can be seen alongside rheumatic diseases—has been seen much more commonly over the past 20 years than it was previously, but the illness can come with questions that are not always straightforward, an expert said at the ACR’s State-of-the-Art Clinical Symposium. The disease, in which the small intestine becomes inflamed…

Role of Dietitians in Rheumatology

Deanna Yamamoto, NP, on behalf of the ARHP Practice Committee  |  May 13, 2016

What do dietitians do to help manage patients with rheumatic disease? Dietitians are well integrated, for example, in the practice of nephrology and diabetes, but few are active in the specialty of rheumatology. However, dietitians are recognized as part of the team of providers designated to care for patients with rheumatic disease by the ACR….

The Microbiome in Pediatric Rheumatic Diseases

The Microbiome in Pediatric Rheumatic Diseases

Matthew Stoll, MD, PhD  |  April 15, 2016

The human intestinal microbiota is home to more than 1,000 bacterial species, containing approximately 3 million genes, many of which code for functions that have the potential to affect human physiology.1 Smaller numbers of organisms are also present in the skin, upper gastrointestinal tract, female reproductive tract and the oro- and nasopharynx. As tools have…

Rheumatologists, Physical Therapists Partner to Offer Patients Pain Relief, Improved Quality of Life

Linda Childers  |  February 16, 2016

When rheumatoid arthritis (RA) left Stefanie Gluckman fighting chronic pain and relegated to a wheelchair, she turned to Lori Rubenstein Fazzio, DPT, PT, MAppSc, YTRX, of Mosaic Physical Therapy in Los Angeles, for relief. Dr. Rubenstein Fazzio knows what it’s like to suffer from excruciating pain. After sustaining career-threatening injuries in a horseback accident in…
