Survival Outcomes in Older Adults With Axial Spondyloarthritis and Concomitant Cancer
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective The objective of this study was to determine survival outcomes in older adults with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and concomitant cancer. Methods We conducted a population‐based study using Medicare claims data linked to Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data to determine overall survival (OS) and cancer‐specific survival (CSS) in

Positive Affect Is Associated With Better Physical Function in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective This study examined the association between positive affect and physical function in individuals with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods We analyzed baseline data from 129 adults with early RA (persistent joint symptoms for ≤24 months) and active disease enrolled in the Central Pain in RA 2 (CPIRA‐2) study.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective This study aimed to determine whether gout flare resolution is associated with physical activity and sleep. These findings were intended to inform the future development of a definition for flare resolution. Methods Data from 81 participants with gout who experienced at least one flare during a six‐month prospective observational study were ...
