RA Disease Activity Influence the Frequency and Phenotype of Citrulline Reactive CD4 T Cells in DRB1*04:04 ACPA+ RA Patients
Background/Purpose: The presence of ACPA in RA signifies an immune response toward citrullinated auto-antigens in disease pathogenesis and persistence. RA is a T cell mediated…Abstract Number: 2582 • ACR Convergence 2023
Expansion of Circulating HLA-DR+ Peripheral Helper T Cells and CXCR5−CD38+ Mature Naïve B Cells in ACPA-positive Individuals At-risk for and with Classified RA
Background/Purpose: Production of ACPA following T and B cell interactions is a hallmark of ACPA+ RA. Recently identified peripheral helper T (Tph) cells have B…Abstract Number: 0281 • ACR Convergence 2023
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…
