Response to allopurinol and febuxostat according to the fractional excretion of urate in men with gout

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background Body mass index (BMI), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and pretreatment urate levels have been reported to influence the urate‐lowering response to allopurinol. We investigated whether the fractional excretion of urate (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations. We further evaluated its potential influence

Role of Prednisone and 25(OH) Vitamin D on Bone Mineral Density and Osteoporosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective We evaluated the role of 25‐hydroxy vitamin D, prednisone and other risk factors for bone mineral density (BMD) loss and osteoporosis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods We calculated the association between 25‐hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and other potential risk factors with BMD measures (spine T‐scores) and osteoporosis ...

Smart Nanogels as Enzyme‐Driven Nanomotors for Navigating Viscous Physiological Barriers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two families of urease‐powered nanomotors (NMs), with and without a p‐(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (p‐HEMA) shell, have been successfully prepared. Both types exhibit effective motion in highly viscous synovial fluid media at low urea concentrations (25 mM).
