Vanessa Caceres  |  September 15, 2015

The controversy over vitamin D is hearty enough to confuse even seasoned rheumatologists, says Nathan Wei, MD, The Arthritis Treatment Center, Frederick, Md. “It’s like what you hear with coffee.

Susan Bernstein  |  September 15, 2015

Summer is a season for travel, so if your immunocompromised patients plan to journey to regions where there are outbreaks of infections, such as chikungunya, tuberculosis, typhoid, yellow fever or other diseases, communication and preparation may prevent serious health events. “The world teems with disease-causing organisms, and almost every infection is more serious in the…

Mindfulness May Improve Medical Efficacy in Rheumatology Patients

Kimberly Retzlaff  |  September 15, 2015

Every day, rheumatology patients live with the realities of having a chronic disease that requires a lifetime of treatment.

KeMo Disease: A Newly Recognized Debilitating Musculoskeletal Disease

John F. Beary, MD  |  September 15, 2015

Dr. Simon Helfgott’s essay, “Barking at the Moon,” in the July 2015 issue of The Rheumatologist, about the unintended consequences of EHRs (electronic health records) prompted me to share my experience regarding the newly recognized KeMo disease.

Her strawberry-blond curls were offset by a high-neck, loose-fitting, burgundy sweater. Her pale skin matched her trim slacks. She had…
