Rheumatic Heart Disease in Asia [PDF]

Circulation, 2008
A few years ago, my colleagues and I conducted a systematic review of data relating to the global burden of group A streptococcal diseases.1,2 Population-based data on rheumatic heart disease prevalence from 1985 through 2002 were included. We estimated that there were a minimum of 15.6 million people in the world with rheumatic heart disease, with 282

Genome‐Wide Aggregated Trans Effects Analysis Identifies Genes Encoding Immune Checkpoints as Core Genes for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The sparse effector “omnigenic” hypothesis postulates that the polygenic effects of common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on a typical complex trait are mediated by trans effects that coalesce on expression of a relatively sparse set of core genes.

Deep-learning models improve on community-level diagnosis for common congenital heart disease lesions [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Prenatal diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), two serious congenital heart defects, improves outcomes and can in some cases facilitate in utero interventions. In practice, however, the fetal diagnosis rate for these lesions is only 30-50 percent in community settings. Improving fetal diagnosis of congenital

Clinical Factors Associated With Pneumocystis Pneumonia Despite Its Primary Prophylaxis: When to Stop Prophylaxis?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although previous studies show that primary prophylaxis against Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is effective in patients with rheumatic diseases receiving immunosuppressive treatment, there is limited evidence regarding the optimal timing for prophylaxis withdrawal.

Expert Perspective: How, When, and Why to Potentially Stop Antiresorptive Drugs in Osteoporosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease, and antiresorptive treatments are often continued for many years. Despite their established efficacy in reducing fracture risk, the most commonly used antiresorptive treatments, bisphosphonates and denosumab, have short‐ and long‐term risks that, coupled with their benefits and other unique characteristics, influence ...
