Correlation Between Metacarpal Cortical Bone Mineral Density Measured By Dual X-Ray Densitometry and Radiogrammetry on Early Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Low bone mass at metacarpal (MC) diaphysis measured by radiogrammetry (DXR) has been described as a poor prognostic factor in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However,…Abstract Number: 350 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Change in Bone Mineral Density with High-Dose Prednisone in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Recently, we showed that treatment with COBRA-light therapy including prednisone with initially 30 mg/day, was as effective as the original COBRA scheme, with initially…Abstract Number: 359 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Association of Scheuermann’s Disease with Osteoporotic Vertebral Fracture Risk
Background/Purpose: Scheuermann’s disease is one of the most frequent illnesses of the spine in teenagers. Its evolution over time is poorly understood. Spinal deformities, by…Abstract Number: 365 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head Is Associated with Low Bone Mass.
Background/Purpose: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is characterized by epiphyseal necrosis that can lead to sub-chondral fracture, femoral head collapse and hip replacement. Osteoporosis…Abstract Number: 513 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Low Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Level Is Not Associated with Decreased Bone Mass or Bone Quality in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Vitamin D deficiency in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is commonly observed. Previous studies have investigated the relationship between vitamin D deficiency and RA…Abstract Number: 1024 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Superior Gains in Bone Mineral Density and Estimated Strength at the Hip for Romosozumab Compared with Teriparatide in Women with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Transitioning from Bisphosphonate Therapy: Results of a Phase 3, Open-Label Clinical Trial
Background/Purpose: STRUCTURE was a phase 3, open-label study evaluating the effect of romosozumab or teriparatide for 12 months in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis transitioning from…Abstract Number: 1531 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Decrease in Bone Mineral Density during Three Months of Early RA Measured By DXR Predicts Radiographic Joint Damage after One Year
Background/Purpose: Digital X-ray radiogrammetry (DXR) is a method to calculate peripheral bone mineral density (BMD) which calculates BMD of the hands (DXR-BMD). The aim…Abstract Number: 2541 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Glucocorticoid Use and Low Thoracic Bone Mineral Density Are Predictors for Clinical Fractures in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: Five-Year Findings of the Tomorrow Study
Background/Purpose: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have muscle weakness and stiff or painful joints might be at increased risk of falls and fractures. The…Abstract Number: 2593 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Effect of Tofacitinib on Bone Mineral Density in Patients with Methotrexate-Resistant Active Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: To analyze the effects of therapy with tofacitinib (Tofa), a Janus kinase inhibitor on the bone mineral density (BMD) of the lumbar spine and…Abstract Number: 2986 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Trends and Determinants of Osteoporosis Prevention and Management in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Compared to Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Despite more aggressive treatment strategies and new biologic DMARDs, the prevalence of osteoporosis (OP) leading to fracture in RA remains high. It is unknown…Abstract Number: 2 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)-Related Autoimmunity and Lumbar Bone Mineral Density in a Multi-Ethnic Community-Dwelling Population
Background/Purpose: Previous studies suggest that antibodies to citrullinated protein antigens (ACPA) contribute to decreased hand bone mineral density (BMD) in RA-free individuals. No evidence exists…
