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

open access: yesArthritis 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.

Associations of Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity with Frailty Over Five Years of Follow‐up

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective To evaluate whether rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity is associated with frailty both in cross‐section and longitudinally. Methods Participants within the Veterans Affairs Rheumatoid Arthritis registry enrolled from 2003 to 2022 were included. The exposure was RA disease activity measured by Disease Activity Score in 28‐joints (DAS28)

Cracking the Code: Which Ocular Symptoms Predict Dry Eye Signs? Insights from a large international sicca registry

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Purpose The study aimed to identify symptom‐based predictors of dry eye disease (DED) signs in the Sjögrens International Collaborative Clinical Alliance (SICCA) cohort. Methods Retrospective analysis examining 16 ocular symptoms (most graded 0‐4) and artificial tear (AT) use (graded 0‐3) as predictors of DED signs [abnormal ocular surface staining ...

Algorithm for Fatigue Crack Initiation Assessment Based on Industrial Photogrammetry

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Industrial photogrammetry is a reliable method to achieve submillimeter accuracy when mapping 2D or 3D objects. In the field of fatigue testing of steel welded details, it can be used to find a new method of crack initiation assessment.

The association of physical function with psychosocial patient‐reported outcomes in people with systemic lupus erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective To evaluate how modifiable psychosocial factors and fatigue relate to physical functioning in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods In this cross‐sectional study of two demographically distinct cohorts [Approaches to Positive, Patient‐centered Experiences of Aging with Lupus (APPEAL) and California Lupus Epidemiology Study
