New Biomarkers in Hand Osteoarthritis: The Micro-RNA Signature
Background/Purpose: Hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is a highly prevalent disease, associated with important disability and socio-economic burden. Erosive HOA, almost exclusively found in women, induces more…Abstract Number: 0300 • ACR Convergence 2022
Exposure-Response Analyses of Upadacitinib Effects on Plasma Biomarkers in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Upadacitinib (UPA) is an oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor approved for the treatment of moderately-to-severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Previous investigations demonstrated UPA modulates…Abstract Number: 0536 • ACR Convergence 2022
Change in Urinary Biomarkers at Three Months Predicts 1-year Treatment Response of Lupus Nephritis Better Than Proteinuria
Background/Purpose: A decline of urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) to < 0.5 is associated with better long-term preservation of kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN). UPCR…Abstract Number: 0656 • ACR Convergence 2022
Association Study Identified HLA-DQA1 as a Genetic Risk of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus-associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Background/Purpose: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare and severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) gene variants in the major…Abstract Number: 0933 • ACR Convergence 2022
Exploratory Study of the Usefulness of TNFAIP3 Genetic Variants in Predicting Response to Methotrexate in Early Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: We recently described that methotrexate (MTX) could exert its immunomodulatory effect through the induction of A20 expression , a protein that negatively regulates NFkB…Abstract Number: 1163 • ACR Convergence 2022
Proteomic Investigation to Identify Urinary Biomarker for Ankylosing Spondylitis
Background/Purpose: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease that affects the spine and peripheral joints, and the exact etiology is still unknown. Diagnosis…Abstract Number: 1478 • ACR Convergence 2022
Urine ALCAM Is a Strong Predictor of Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: T cells play a critical role in the pathogenicity of SLE and lupus nephritis (LN). Hence, identifying T cell co-stimulatory pathways and mediators that…Abstract Number: 1650 • ACR Convergence 2022
Systemic Immune Inflammation Index Predict All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The systemic immune inflammation index (SII) is an inflammation-based biomarker that is an influential prognostic factor in diseases with an inflammation-related etiology. This index…Abstract Number: 1874 • ACR Convergence 2022
Autoantibodies Are Common in Patients with Idiopathic Interstitial Lung Disease Suggesting a High Prevalence of Undiagnosed Autoimmune Connective Tissue Disease
Background/Purpose: In some patients, interstitial lung disease (ILD) may be the dominant or even sole overt manifestation of an otherwise unrecognised autoimmune connective tissue disease…Abstract Number: 2096 • ACR Convergence 2022
Role of Cell-Bound Complement Fragments as Biomarkers to Determine Disease Activity in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: The prompt identification of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) at risk of or in flare strongly influences the prognosis of the disease. Cell-bound…
