Monocyte LOXHD1 and RHOB Expression Predictive of Progressive Systemic Sclerosis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A leading cause of death among patients with scleroderma (SSc), interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

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 ...

Adipose Tissue-Derived Stromal Cells Induce a Highly Trophic Environment While Reducing Maturation of Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2020
Allogeneic cell-based therapies using adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ASCs) offer an off-the-shelf alternative to autologous therapy. An underlying assumption is that ASC can modulate the immune response of the recipient.

Association between C-reactive protein with all-cause mortality in ELSA-Brasil cohort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: High-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) has been proposed as a marker of incident cardiovascular disease and vascular mortality, and it may also be a marker of non-vascular mortality.
