Lack of association between rheumatoid factor levels and clinical response to certolizumab pegol in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: an observational study

open access: yesDrugs in Context
Background: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) generally have elevated levels of rheumatoid factor (RF), which binds to the crystallizable fraction (Fc) of monoclonal antibodies, diminishing tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) efficacy.

Comparism between Anti-RA33, Anti-CCP antibodies and Rheumatoid Factor in the Diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Iraqi Patients

open access: yesمجلة كلية الطب, 2013
Background: Anti-RA33 antibodies and anti-CCP antibodies are highly specific markers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but are not detectable in all RA patients.

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Gambaran Hasil Pemeriksaan Rheumatoid Factor (Rf) Pada Lansia Dengan Keluhan Nyeri Sendi

open access: yes, 2023
Latar belakang: Rheumatoid Factor (RF) adalah immunoglobulin yang bereaksi dengan molekul immunoglobulin G (IgG). Jika serum penderita mengandung IgG, maka akan terjadi aglutinasi akibat dari kandungan reagen latex yang memiliki IgG, sehingga RF ...

Increased Plasma Microbial tDR‐1 in At‐Risk Individuals Is Associated With Decreased Conversion to Clinical Rheumatoid Arthritis and Reduces an In Vitro Macrophage Type 1 Interferon Response

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Microbial small RNAs can regulate human genes. Higher plasma concentrations of microbial transfer RNA (tRNA)‐derived RNA‐1 (tDR‐1) were previously associated with lower rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. This study examined whether tDR‐1 concentrations differ in anticyclic citrullinated peptide‐3 positive (CCP3+) at‐risk individuals (

Compromised function of regulatory T cells in rheumatoid arthritis and reversal by anti-TNF alpha therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Regulatory T cells have been clearly implicated in the control of disease in murine models of autoimmunity. The paucity of data regarding the role of these lymphocytes in human autoimmune disease has prompted us to examine their function in patients with

RF and Surface Properties of Superconducting Samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The surface resistance Rs of superconducting cavities can be obtained from the unloaded quality factor Q0. Since Rs varies strongly over the cavity surface its value must be interpreted as averaged over the whole cavity surface.

Peripheral Blood DNA Methylation Changes Precede Lymphoma Diagnosis in Primary Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of lymphoma. The molecular mechanisms underlying lymphomagenesis remain poorly understood, and sensitive biomarkers for early identification of patients at high risk of developing lymphoma are lacking.

Pharmacokinetics, Effectiveness and Safety of Certolizumab Pegol in Children and Adolescents With Active Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: 9+‐Year Results From a Multicenter, Open‐Label Study

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics, effectiveness, safety, and immunogenicity of certolizumab pegol (CZP) in polyarticular‐course juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pcJIA). Methods Pediatric Arthritis Study of Certolizumab Pegol (NCT01550003), a multicenter, open‐label study, enrolled patients aged 2 to 17 years with ...

Anti–Carbamylated Fibrinogen Autoantibodies of IgG and IgA Isotypes Contribute to a Better Prognostic Stratification in Very Early Rheumatoid Arthritis: Data From the French National ESPOIR Cohort

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and longitudinal evolution of anti–carbamylated fibrinogen antibodies (ACa‐Fib) of IgG and IgA isotypes in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and determine whether these antibodies provide additional diagnostic and prognostic information beyond anti–cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti‐CCP ...
