Short‐Term Response to Biologic Therapy in Psoriatic Arthritis Is Not Influenced by Disease Duration at Initiation of Therapy

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naive psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods Patients with PsA who started on biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis.

Microphysically derived expressions for rate-and-state friction parameters, a, b, and Dc [PDF]

, 2017
Rate-and-state friction (RSF) laws are extensively applied in fault mechanics but have a largely empirical basis reflecting only limited understanding of the underlying physical mechanisms.

An anthropometric based subject-specific finite element model of the human breast for predicting large deformations

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2015
The large deformation of the human breast threatens proper nodules tracking when the subject mammograms are used as pre-planning data for biopsy. However, techniques capable of accurately supporting the surgeons during biopsy are missing. Finite Element (

Beyond Visual Scoring: Computational Computed Tomography Analysis for High‐Resolution Computed Tomography–Based Quantification of Interstitial Lung Disease in Inflammatory Rheumatic Disease

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic disorders (IRDs). High‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is widely considered the gold standard for the noninvasive assessment of ILD; however, its interpretation is constrained by substantial interobserver variability and the ...

Intracrystalline deformation of calcite [PDF]

, 1991
It is well established from observations on natural calcite tectonites that intracrystalline plastic mechanisms are important during the deformation of calcite rocks in nature.

An experimental investigation of the behaviour of steels over large temperature and strain rate ranges [PDF]

, 2013
During forging and machining manufacturing processes, the material is subject to large strains at high strain rates which provoke local heating and microstructural changes.

The geometry and thickness of deformation-band fault core and its influence on sealing characteristics of deformation-band fault zones [PDF]

, 2005
Deformation-band faults in high-porosity reservoir sandstones commonly contain a fault core of intensely crushed rock surrounding the main slip surfaces.

Contact Dynamic Behaviors of Magnetic Hydrogel Soft Robots

Gels
Magnetic hydrogel soft robots have shown great potential in various fields. However, their contact dynamic behaviors are complex, considering stick–slip motion at the contact interface, and lack accurate computational models to analyze them.

Estimating the prevalence and incidence of symptomatic hand OA in the Netherlands using primary care electronic health records.

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective This study estimated the incidence and prevalence of symptomatic hand osteoarthritis (OA) in the Dutch population using a validated algorithm that integrates free‐text data from primary care electronic health records (EHRs). Methods This retrospective cohort study used the Integrated Primary Care Information (IPCI) database, including EHRs ...
