Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients with Higher Disease Severity and Subclinical Carotid Plaque Experience More Cardiovascular Events Despite a Favorable Conventional Cadiovascular Risk Profiles
Background/Purpose: It has been shown that patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) experience cardiovascular (CV) events more often than expected. Increased risks of CV diseases in…Abstract Number: 596 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Evolution of Atherosclerosis in Psoriatic Arthritis: Is the Former an Independent Inflammatory Process?
Background/Purpose: A non-invasive study focusing on the structural and functional properties of the carotid arteries was carried out in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients. Increased cardiovascular…Abstract Number: 1267 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Inflammatory Burden Predicts Progression of Carotid Plaque in Rheumatoid Arthritis: A 24-Month Longitudinal Analysis
Background/Purpose: Carotid atherosclerosis, which is associated with the increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease, is increased in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. In our previous study,…Abstract Number: 2663 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Variant in the Osteoprotegerin Gene Is Associated with Coronary Atherosclerosis in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Results From a Candidate Gene Study
Background/Purpose: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have accelerated atherosclerosis. However, this association is not fully explained by traditional cardiovascular risk factors or markers of inflammation. Little is…Abstract Number: 1269 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Serum Cytokines Associated with Carotid Atherosclerosis in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The mechanism for the increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is incompletely understood. In a previous analysis, we found that both…
