Hydroxychloroquine Associated With Lower Glomerular Filtration Rate Decline in Lupus Nephritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) protects kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN) by preventing flares, yet some cohort studies show no significant benefit in kidney function with HCQ. Clarifying these conflicting findings by showing early and long‐term benefits of HCQ on kidney function preservation is critical.

Serum uric acid levels in older adults: Associations with clinical outcomes and implications for reference intervals in those aged 70 years and over

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Reports have linked both high and low serum uric acid (SUA) levels to adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to establish a reference interval for SUA in older adults and assessed its association with clinically relevant outcomes in relatively healthy, community‐dwelling individuals aged 70 and older.
