Role of VEGF Polymorphisms in the Susceptibility and Severity of Interstitial Lung Disease

Biomedicines, 2021
The search for biomarkers that can help to establish an early diagnosis and prognosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is of potential interest. VEGF polymorphisms have been implicated in the development of several lung disorders.

Safety of the first dose of mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases

Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2021
The safety of the SARSCoV-2 mRNA vaccines in patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMD) on immunomodulatory therapy is unknown because these individuals were largely excluded from the vaccine trials.

Improvements in Health‐Related Quality of Life With Treat‐to‐Target Urate‐Lowering Therapy in Gout: A Post Hoc Analysis of a Randomized Multicenter Trial

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Although treat‐to‐target urate‐lowering therapy (ULT) is endorsed as best practice in gout management, limited data exist on its impact on health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). We assessed the impact of treat‐to‐target ULT on HRQoL among participants receiving protocolized gout care, identifying factors associated with HRQoL and HRQoL ...

A DNA methylation-based algorithm for diagnosing rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis Research & Therapy
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), particularly seronegative disease, is difficult to diagnose early, which can delay treatment initiation. This study aims to develop a binary DNA methylation (DNAm)-based algorithm to diagnose RA.

Heterogeneity of Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease by Longitudinal Forced Vital Capacity Trajectory and Associations With Disease Outcomes

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to identify unique disease trajectories within rheumatoid arthritis–associated interstitial lung disease (RA‐ILD) based on longitudinal forced vital capacity (FVC) values and their associated clinical outcomes. Methods We performed a cohort study of RA‐ILD within the Veterans Health Administration from 1999 to 2021.

Economic Burden of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize the economic impact of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on households, health systems, and society in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Methods Electronic databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL were searched using keywords related to RA and cost of illness.
