Lung ultrasonography as a tool to detect interstitial lung disease in rheumatoid arthritis: A meta‐analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
A systematic review and meta‐analysis were conducted to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of lung ultrasonography (LUS) to high‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in detecting rheumatoid arthritis (RA)‐interstitial lung disease (ILD). Nine studies with a total of 845 participants were included.

Predictors of systemic sclerosis patients with interstitial lung disease progression: A retrospective study

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
The final systemic sclerosis patients with interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) progression prediction model was composed of 6 significant risk factors: male, type 2 diabetes mellitus, pericardial effusion, anti‐Ro52, hypoproteinemia, and elevated C‐reactive protein. Our model demonstrated excellent prognostic utility.

Noninvasive electrical stimulation enhances the diabetic osseointegration via alleviating mitochondrial damage

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
A high‐glucose environment induced an imbalance in mitochondrial homeostasis, which resulted in the inhibition of bone tissue regeneration. In this study, we first introduce the exogenous noninvasive direct current electric field (DCEF) strategy for regulating mitochondrial homeostasis and explore its effect on bone regeneration in high‐glucose ...
