Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) significantly impacts employment capacity. This study aimed to investigate the impact of burden of disease activity, damage, and treatment on employment outcomes and transitions in patients with SLE. Methods Using data from a single center, we analyzed employment transitions, adjusted mean disease activity ...

Objective This study investigated the association between frailty and cancer incidence and mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It aimed to identify how frailty influences cancer risk and cancer‐specific outcomes. Methods This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from the Veterans’ Affairs Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry (2002–2023).

Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...
