Objective Osteoporosis causes fractures that further increase the disease burden of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, osteoporosis treatment rates remain low. Although several studies have reported that biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs) can prevent or improve osteoporosis in RA, our large‐scale, real ...

Objective Nerve growth factor (NGF), a key mediator of pain, is increased in osteoarthritic (OA) joints. Antibodies against NGF show analgesic effects in painful knee OA, but clinical development was stopped because of side effects in the joints. Knowledge about the biologic effects of NGF on joint tissues is limited. Therefore, we explored the effects
