Cervical Spinal Cord Magnetization Transfer Ratio and Its Relationship With Clinical Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The cervical spinal cord (cSC) is highly relevant to clinical dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) but remains understudied using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We assessed magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), a semi‐quantitative MRI measure sensitive to MS‐related tissue microstructural changes, in the cSC and its ...

Placebo Effect Sizes in Clinical Trials of Knee Osteoarthritis Using Intra‐Articular Injections of Biologic Agents

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with knee osteoarthritis rely on symptomatic treatments, in which up to 75% of the pain reduction can be attributed to the placebo effect. This effect may vary based on treatment type (eg, biologics vs nonbiologic injection) and route of administration (eg, intra‐articular vs topical vs oral).

Longitudinal Relationship Between Pain and Depression in People With Inflammatory Arthritis: A Narrative Review

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
As many patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) have chronic pain, understanding how to best assess and manage pain in IA is a priority. Comorbid depression is prevalent in adults with IA, affecting 15% to 39% of people. Although pain and depression are thought to be associated in IA, this concept is largely based on cross‐sectional data.

Analysis of the Longitudinal Behavior of Serum Levels of Soluble Flt1 and Placental Growth Factor in Pregnant Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study analyzed longitudinal trajectories of soluble Flt1 (sFlt1) levels, placenta growth factor (PlGF) levels, and sFlt1:PlGF ratios in a cohort of pregnant patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Blood samples were collected (14–18, 24–26, 30–32, 34–36, and 38–40 weeks), stored at −80°C, and evaluated for serum levels ...

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Understanding Contributors of Resilience in Youth With Childhood‐Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Through a Socioecological Lens: A Mixed‐Methods Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to identify themes contributing to resilience in childhood‐onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE), distinguish between profiles of resilience, and examine how they relate to underlying themes and patient characteristics. Methods We conducted a mixed‐methods study of 21 patients with cSLE aged 11 to 19 years at a Canadian ...

Gastrointestinal Perforation as a Safety Concern Among Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis Receiving JAK Inhibitor Therapy: A Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Gastrointestinal perforation (GIP) is a rare and life‐threatening safety concern associated with JAK inhibitors (JAKi). We aimed to review the evidence regarding the risk of GIP associated with the use of JAKi in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using a systematic review and network meta‐analysis approach.
