2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting: Skin Issues in Rheumatic Diseases Present Challenges

Thomas R. Collins  |  March 15, 2016

SAN FRANCISCO—A 40-year-old woman shows up in the clinic with scarring alopecia, with an area of hyperpigmentation on the rim of her scalp, extending from just behind the temple to behind her ears. An examination with a dermatoscope shows hyperkeratotic follicular plugging. The case—in this example, the discoid form of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (DLE)—is one…

2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting: Research Lends Insight Into Osteoporosis Treatment, New Auto-Inflammatory Disease, Scleroderma

Thomas R. Collins  |  March 15, 2016

SAN FRANCISCO—Post-menopausal women with osteoporosis, previously treated with oral bisphosphonates, had greater increases in bone density when taking denosumab compared with zoledronic acid over a year’s time, according to a study presented at the 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting. The findings were discussed in the Discovery 2015 plenary session, which focused on new research. In the…

Dermatology & Immunology: Skin Issues Can Present Challenges

Insight into Crosstalk Between Bone & Immune Systems

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  February 22, 2016

Osteoimmunology is an emerging field that focuses on the interaction between bone and the immune system. CD4+ T cells play an important role in the bone marrow and modulate the differentiation of bone-resorbing osteoclasts. This article reviews the role of CD4+ T cells as an osteoclastogenic population in inflammatory bowel disease…

Interdisciplinary Collaboration at Wash U Advances Understanding of Immunology, Rheumatology

Gretchen Henkel  |  October 14, 2015

In June 2014, 10 members of a church group returned to St. Louis from Haiti, where they had contracted chikungunya virus (CHIKV), a mosquito-transmitted alphavirus previously unknown in the Western hemisphere that produces inflammatory arthritis symptoms. Because CHIKV-related arthritis mimics seronegative RA, a group of clinicians, immunologists, virologists and geneticists at the Washington University in…

EULAR 2015: Role of ACPA Positivity in Osteoarthritis

Thomas R. Collins  |  September 15, 2015

ROME, Italy—The role of ACPA positivity in osteoarthritis is coming more into focus, with results from recent studies by researchers in Germany showing that ACPA positivity apparently works in concert with rheumatoid factor positivity to enhance bone erosion and that ACPA-positive patients show signs of bone erosion before they have clinical signs of arthritis. The…
