Objective The objective was to identify factors determining acute arthritis resolution and safety with colchicine and prednisone in acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis. Methods We conducted a post hoc analysis of the COLCHICORT trial, which compared colchicine and prednisone for the treatment of acute CPP crystal arthritis, using a ...

Computation of Bounds for Polynomial Dynamic Systems
Bounds for positive definite sets such as attractors of dynamic systems are typically characterized by Lyapunov-like functions. These Lyapunov functions and their time derivatives must satisfy certain definiteness conditions, whose verification usually ...

Absence of Non-Trivial Fuzzy Inner Product Spaces and the Cauchy–Schwartz Inequality
First, we show that the non-trivial fuzzy inner product space under the linearity condition does not exist, which means a fuzzy inner product space with linearity produces only a crisp real number for each pair of vectors. If the positive-definiteness is

Inspired by the construction of a new Liapunov functional for linear Volterra integrodifferential equations, we prove some general stability theorems for functional differential equations with infinite delay and weaken the usual requirement for positive ...

Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging for the Evaluation of the Sacroiliac Joint in Pediatric Patients
Background Maturational signal in the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) of skeletally immature youth is often misinterpreted as inflammation. Diagnostic tools that improve specificity are greatly needed. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values from diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI), when used with standard imaging, may enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Beyond Inflammation: Why Understanding the Brain Matters in Inflammatory Arthritis
Persistent pain remains a major challenge in inflammatory arthritis, even when joint inflammation is well controlled. Pain and associated symptoms such as fatigue cannot be explained by peripheral inflammation alone but reflect altered central pain processing. These changes may arise through “top‐down” mechanisms, reflecting pre‐existing dysfunction in
