Is There a Decreased Risk of Developing CF Arthropathy in CF Patients Undergoing Treatment That Targets the F508del Mutation?
Background/Purpose: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by mutations within the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene that result in a defect of the chloride…Abstract Number: 0389 • ACR Convergence 2023
The Role of anti-CCP3 Antibodies in anti-CCP2 Antibody Negative Patients with Musculoskeletal Symptoms
Background/Purpose: To investigate, in primary care, whether testing anti-CCP3 antibodies in anti-CCP2 negative individuals with musculoskeletal (MSK) symptoms, improved the prediction of inflammatory arthritis (IA)/rheumatoid…Abstract Number: 0392 • ACR Convergence 2023
Novel Diagnostic Markers for Rheumatoid Arthritis Including Anti-CarP (Carbamylated Protein), Anti-Sa (Citrullinated Vimentin) and Anti-CEP1 (Citrullinated Enolase Peptide1) Are Frequently Positive in Diagnostic Profiles
Background/Purpose: Despite the diagnostic contribution of Anti-CCP3.1 (cyclic citrillunated peptide) antibody and RF (rheumatoid factor) as classified by the 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria, approximately one-third…Abstract Number: 0835 • ACR Convergence 2023
Abatacept in Individuals at Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis: Results from the Arthritis Prevention in the Pre-clinical Phase of RA with Abatacept (APIPPRA) Trial
Background/Purpose: The definition of higher risk states for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been refined in more recent years through inclusion of serum autoantibodies and symptom…Abstract Number: 0980 • ACR Convergence 2023
Temporal Trends in Incidence Rates of Seropositive and Seronegative Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Danish Nationwide Population-based Study
Background/Purpose: With growing availability of autoantibody testing and autoantibodies gaining more weight in the 2010 ACR/EULAR classification criteria of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an increasing incidence…Abstract Number: 1046 • ACR Convergence 2023
The Level of RF or Anti-CCP Antibody Affect Ultrasound Synovial Findings in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis?
Background/Purpose: Positive for auto-antibodies such as rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (CCP) or having high autoantibody titers is associated with the progression of…Abstract Number: 1363 • ACR Convergence 2023
Plasma Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Remnant Levels Are Lower in Premenopausal Healthy Women Using Oral Contraceptive Pills
Background/Purpose: Women develop RA 3 times more often than men, and several risk factors for RA are female specific. Prior studies demonstrate an association between…Abstract Number: 1741 • ACR Convergence 2023
The Occurrence and Phenotype of Autoreactive T Cells in the At-Risk Phase of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: CD4+ T cells recognizing citrullinated epitopes are present in peripheral blood of anti-citrulline protein antibody (ACPA) positive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients at time of…Abstract Number: 1746 • ACR Convergence 2023
Smoking as a Risk Factor for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Exclusive Association with IgA Autoantibodies
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by autoantibodies to anti-modified protein autoantibodies (AMPAs) like anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and anti-acetylated protein antibodies (AAPA). Smoking is…Abstract Number: 1763 • ACR Convergence 2023
Asthma Severity Is Associated Increased Serum Anti-cyclic Antibody Level at Baseline and in Increase During Longitudinal Follow-up
