Systemic levels of IL-23 are strongly associated with disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis but not spondyloarthritis [PDF]

, 2009
Objectives Th17 cells are an effector T-cell population that plays a role in chronic inflammatory conditions and is dependent on IL-23 for their survival and expansion. More recently, a genetic association was discovered between polymorphisms in the gene

Evaluating a Pragmatic Strength Alternative for Frailty Measurement and Assessing Its Predictive Capacity Against Established Frailty Instruments in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

Relationship between Anxiety Score and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) in Hemodialysis Patient

Indonesian Journal of Medicine, 2020
Background: Anxiety in hemodialysis pati­ents often impaired quality of life. Complex interaction between Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and anxiety are dynamic and multifac­torial, including socio-economic, lifestyle and biological factors. Biological factors are close­ly related to anxiety in CKD including the im­mune system, inflammatory pathways of ...

Differential response of serum amyloid A to different therapies in early rheumatoid arthritis and its potential value as a disease activity biomarker [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The aim was to compare the effect of etanercept (ETN) and conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) therapy on serum amyloid A (SAA) levels and to determine whether SAA reflects rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease ...
