Association of Elevated Platelets and C‐Reactive Protein With Severe Disease and Poor Survival in Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

An alternative but short proof of a result of Zhu and Lu concerning general sum-connectivity index

open access: yes, 2018
Recently, Zhu and Lu, [On the general sum-connectivity index of tricyclic graphs, J. Appl. Math. Comput. 51(1) (2016) 177–188] determined the graphs having maximum general sum-connectivity index among all [Formula: see text]-vertex tricyclic graphs.

Beyond Visual Scoring: Computational Computed Tomography Analysis for High‐Resolution Computed Tomography–Based Quantification of Interstitial Lung Disease in Inflammatory Rheumatic Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic disorders (IRDs). High‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is widely considered the gold standard for the noninvasive assessment of ILD; however, its interpretation is constrained by substantial interobserver variability and the ...

DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF ATOM BOND SUM CONNECTIVITY INDEX

open access: yes, 2023
We introduce some new atom bond sum connectivity indices: second, third and fourth atom bond sum connectivity indices of a graph. In this paper, we compute the atom bond sum connectivity index, the second, third and fourth atom bond sum connectivity indices and neighborhood sum atom bond connectivity index of some important chemical drugs such as ...

Facial Cosmetic Therapy Use Among Patients With Systemic Sclerosis: An Australian Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is associated with numerous facial manifestations for which patients may engage in cosmetic therapies. It is unclear how patients with SSc use these therapies. This study sought to characterize patient engagement and experiences with cosmetic therapies for SSc‐related and non‐SSc–related facial changes.

Linear model based on neighborhood ABS index for graph energy in benzenoid hydrocarbons and maximum index cactus graphs

open access: yesScientific Reports
The atom-bond-sum (ABS) connectivity index, developed by integrating the degree information from the atom-bond and sum connectivity indices, has attracted significant attention for its effectiveness in correlating thermodynamic properties of chemical ...

Sharp Bounds for the General Sum-Connectivity Indices of Transformation Graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2017
Given a graph G, the general sum-connectivity index is defined as χα(G)=∑uv∈E(G)dGu+dGvα, where dG(u) (or dG(v)) denotes the degree of vertex u (or v) in the graph G and α is a real number.

Clinical Characteristics and Concordance of Anti‐MDA5 Antibodies: A Multicenter Australian Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective In Australia, anti‐MDA5 antibodies are exclusively tested by a line immunoblot assay (LIA). The clinical concordance of an LIA‐positive anti‐MDA5 result is unclear. We aimed to describe the clinical features and determine the clinical concordance of patients with anti‐MDA5 antibodies. Methods Electronic records of a multisite cohort (patients

Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...
