Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Arthritis 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‐

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013 Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome that is increasingly affecting elderly patients. Before 2000, the mean age at diagnosis of HF was 63 years, but has more recently increased to 80 years (1). Similarly, the incidence of newonset HF is much higher in elderly patients compared with younger patients, and registry data show that the proportion of ...
