Cost‐Effectiveness of Low‐Dose Colchicine Prophylaxis When Starting Allopurinol Using the “Start‐Low Go‐Slow” Approach for Gout: Evidence From a Noninferiority Randomized Double‐Blind Placebo‐Controlled Trial

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the cost‐effectiveness of low‐dose colchicine prophylaxis for preventing gout flares when starting allopurinol using the “start‐low go‐slow” approach. Methods Participants with gout, fulfilling the American College of Rheumatology recommendations for starting urate‐lowering therapy and with serum urate

Interval estimation for parameters of a bivariate time varying covariate model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper investigates several asymptotic confidence interval estimates, based on the Wald, likelihood ratio and the score statistics for the parameters of a parallel two-component system model, with dependent failure and a time varying covariate, when ...

Bayesian Regression Models for Interval-censored Data in R

open access: yesThe R Journal, 2017
The package icenReg provides classic survival regression models for interval-censored data. We present an update to the package that extends the parametric models into the Bayesian framework.

Adipokines and Associations With Incident Osteoporotic Fracture in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We assessed whether circulating adipokines are associated with incident fractures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Three adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, and fibroblast growth factor [FGF]‐21) were measured using banked enrollment serum from participants in a longitudinal RA cohort.

Sex Differences in Medication Discontinuation in Axial Spondyloarthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined sex differences in medication discontinuation among patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) initiating tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi), interleukin‐17 inhibitors (IL‐17i), or JAK inhibitors (JAKi). Methods Using data from the Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness (RISE) Registry (2003–2025), we assessed ...

The temporal trends and short‐ and long‐term mortality of people with acute myocardial infarction and rheumatoid arthritis: a nationwide cohort study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Aims We investigated whether a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects the quality of inpatient acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care and long‐term mortality post‐AMI. Methods We analysed data from 784,091 adults, 6,047 with a diagnosis of RA, from England and Wales hospitalised with AMI between 2005 and 2019 from the MINAP registry, linked ...

SmoothHazard: An R Package for Fitting Regression Models to Interval-Censored Observations of Illness-Death Models

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2017
The irreversible illness-death model describes the pathway from an initial state to an absorbing state either directly or through an intermediate state. This model is frequently used in medical applications where the intermediate state represents illness

E-Bayesian Prediction for the Burr XII Model Based on Type-II Censored Data with Two Samples

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2020
Type-II censored data is an important scheme of data in lifetime studies. The purpose of this paper is to obtain E-Bayesian predictive functions which are based on observed order statistics with two samples from two parameter Burr XII model.

MYCOPHENOLATE MOFETIL TREATMENT REDUCES THE RISK OF TREATMENT ESCALATION DUE TO VASCULAR COMPLICATIONS IN LIMITED CUTANEOUS SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS: EMULATION OF A TARGET TRIAL FROM ITALIAN RHEUMATOLOGY SOCIETY SPRING REGISTRY

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon due to the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of the vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.
