A Metabolomic Signature Predicts Gout Flare Clinical Outcome Associated With Colchicine Prophylaxis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective This study investigated that serum metabolomics, before urate‐lowering therapy (ULT) initiation, could serve as a biomarker for responsiveness to colchicine prophylaxis in patients with gout commencing treat‐to‐target ULT. Methods We studied a multicenter prospective cohort (n = 409) initiating treat‐to‐target ULT plus colchicine prophylaxis.

ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and the Risk of Steroid‐Induced Osteonecrosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.

Intravenous lanadelumab for the treatment of moderately ill COVID‐19 patients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Kallikrein‐kinin system (KKS) dysregulation is hypothesized to play a pathogenetic role in COVID‐19‐associated pulmonary oedema.
