Identification of Risk Factors for Incident Cardiomyopathy in Patients with Systemic Sclerosis
Background/Purpose: Cardiac involvement in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is one of the leading causes of scleroderma-associated death. There are limited data examining risk factors for incident…Abstract Number: 1098 • ACR Convergence 2024
Prognostic Value of Hyperuricemia in Developing Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Arthritis: A 10-Year Prospective Study
Background/Purpose: The role of concurrent hyperuricemia as a cardiovascular risk factor in patients with chronic inflammatory arthritis (CIA) has yet to be studied. We aim…Abstract Number: 1505 • ACR Convergence 2024
Incidence of Cardiovascular and Venous Thromboembolic Events in Four Autoantibody-defined Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Clusters
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients have higher cardiovascular (CV) risk compared to the general population, with a standardized CV mortality rate of 2-3 and…Abstract Number: 1957 • ACR Convergence 2024
Assessing Left Ventricular Hemodynamic Forces in Systemic Sclerosis Patients: Pilot Study
Background/Purpose: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a connective tissue disease marked by inflammation, microvascular changes and fibrosis. Cardiac comorbidities are the leading cause of mortality. Early…Abstract Number: 2414 • ACR Convergence 2024
A Retrospective Comparative Analysis of Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and Statin Use as Secondary Prevention in a Cohort of Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus versus Without Rheumatological Disease from a Single-Center Patient Registry
Background/Purpose: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have increased prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (RFs), which predispose to higher risk of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease…Abstract Number: 0098 • ACR Convergence 2024
Anti-HSP90α as a Protective Natural Antibody Against Secondary Antiphospholipid Syndrome in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Heat shock protein 90 alpha (HSP90α) is an epichaperone present ubiquitously inside the cell, whose dimers function as a foldase that helps the correct…Abstract Number: 0469 • ACR Convergence 2024
SCORE2 Is Superior to SCORE in Predicting the Presence of Carotid Plaques and Intima-media Thickness in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: A Cross-sectional Study with Carotid Ultrasound
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) escalates the risk of premature mortality, predominantly through cardiovascular diseases. Although SCORE and its updated version, SCORE2, are employed to assess…Abstract Number: 0735 • ACR Convergence 2024
ANCA-associated Vasculitis (AAV) and Long-term Risk of Cardiovascular Disease: Large-scale Propensity-matched Global Retrospective Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: In spite of significantly improved therapy during the last years, long-term morbidity and mortality has remained high in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). The main causes…Abstract Number: 1100 • ACR Convergence 2024
Coronary Dual-Energy Computed Tomography for the Detection of Monosodium Urate Crystal Deposition in the Arteries of Individuals with and Without Gout (CORODECT): A Multi-Center Prospective Imaging Study
Background/Purpose: Prior dual-energy CT (DECT) studies have suggested that monosodium urate (MSU) crystals may be present in the coronary arteries of patients with gout. However,…
