Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2014
The term autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) encompasses a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by joint involvement along with a wide spectrum of systemic manifestations. The most common ARDs are rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Nevertheless, all these conditions share similar pathophysiological mechanisms [

Towards Super-Resolution CEST MRI for Visualization of Small Structures [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings, German Workshop on Medical Image Computing (2022) 210-215, 2021
The onset of rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis is typically subclinical, which results in challenging early detection of the disease. However, characteristic changes in the anatomy can be detected using imaging techniques such as MRI or CT.

Rheumatic diseases in Africa [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Rheumatology, 2021
Historically, rheumatic diseases have not received much attention in Africa, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, possibly owing to a focus on the overwhelming incidence of infectious diseases and the decreased life span of the general population in this region.

The clinical spectrum of SMA‐PME and in vitro normalization of its cellular ceramide profile

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1941-1952, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective The objectives of this study were to define the clinical and biochemical spectrum of spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy (SMA‐PME) and to determine if aberrant cellular ceramide accumulation could be normalized by enzyme replacement.

Spine and Rheumatic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
Rheumatic diseases include a wide spectrum of diseases involving musculoskeletal and immune system. Spinal disorders, whether mechanical or inflammatory, are main manifestations in daily clinical practice of rheumatologists, neurologists, orthopaedics, and general physicians.

Frailty in Rheumatic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Frailty is a syndrome characterized by the decline in the physiologic reserve and function of several systems, leading to increased vulnerability and adverse health outcomes. While common in the elderly, recent studies have underlined the higher prevalence of frailty in chronic diseases, independent of age.

Yoga in Rheumatic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Rheumatology Reports, 2013
Yoga is a popular activity which may be well suited for some individuals with certain rheumatic disorders. Regular yoga practice can increase muscle strength and endurance, proprioception and balance, with emphasis on movement through a full range of motion to increase flexibility and mobility.

Glycobiology of rheumatic diseases

open access: yesNature Reviews Rheumatology, 2022
Glycosylation has a profound influence on protein activity and cell biology through a variety of mechanisms, such as protein stability, receptor interactions and signal transduction. In many rheumatic diseases, a shift in protein glycosylation occurs, and is associated with inflammatory processes and disease progression.

Photosensitivity in Rheumatic Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 2004
There have been a number of recent advances in the genetic understanding of photosensitive rheumatic diseases, especially subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis. These advances support the concept that increased numbers of ultraviolet light-induced apoptotic cells in skin lead to a supra-threshold concentration of antigenic peptides.
