Ultrasonographyc Evaluation of Metacarpophalangeal Joints Can be Useful in the Differential Diagnosis of Early Rheumatoid Arthritis and Early Spondyloarthritis. Α Monocentric Preliminary Study
Background/Purpose: A number of studies have demonstrated that musculoskeletal ultrasonography (MSUS) is more sensitive in diagnosing arthritis than clinical examination although, as underlined in a…Abstract Number: 955 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
In Vitro Effects of CR6086, a Potent ProstaglandinE2 Subtype 4 Receptor Antagonist, on Bone Erosive Pathways
Background/Purpose: CR6086 is a selective EP4 receptor antagonist immunomodulator in clinical development for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In animal models of RA, it demonstrated a superior…Abstract Number: 2042 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Referral Criteria to an Early Arthritis Clinic: Poor Agreement between Referring Physicians and Rheumatologists
Background/Purpose: Prompt identification and referral of patients with suspected inflammatory arthritis to a rheumatology clinic are crucial for early diagnosis and treatment. In the referral…Abstract Number: 1250 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Outcomes in Real-World Patients with Early Aggressive Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The window of opportunity to address early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in patients (pts) is well documented. However early aggressive (agr) RA needs further study…Abstract Number: 2375 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Does the Body Mass Index Have Any Influence in the Characteristics of Early Arthritis Patients?
Background/Purpose: Obesity has been proposed as a risk factor to develop rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and it has been associated with a worse response to several…Abstract Number: 1253 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Patient Reported Outcomes Explain the Lack of Agreement between Physician and Patient Perceived Remission in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients increasingly reach a state of absence of disease activity, or remission. However, the proportion of patients classified as in remission…Abstract Number: 2390 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Trends and Predictors of Guideline Adherence for Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis Prevention in an Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Cohort
Background/Purpose: RA patients are at a high risk of osteoporosis and fracture, in part due to frequent glucocorticoid use. Despite recommendations from ACR guidelines on…Abstract Number: 1356 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Is ACPA-Positive RA Still a More Severe Disease Than ACPA-Negative RA? a Longitudinal Cohort Study in RA-Patients Treated from 2000 Onwards
Background/Purpose: Anti-citrullinated-protein antibodies (ACPA)-positive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is considered as more severe than ACPA-negative RA, because of its association with joint destruction. Clinically relevant joint…Abstract Number: 2391 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Incidence of Infections in Early Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Few studies have focused on analyzing infection risk in recent-onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA).The main objective of this study was to estimate the incidence of…Abstract Number: 1369 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Interferon Gamma Signature Genes and CXCL10 As New Biomarkers in Early Stage of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore new biomarkers for early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). For better discrimination power, we especially investigated…Abstract Number: 2426 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Altered Frequencies of Circulating Follicullar T Helper Cell Counterparts and Their Subsets but Not of Peripheral Helper T Cells, Are Associated with Increased Circulating Plasmablasts in Seropositive Early RA Patients
Background/Purpose: Follicular T helper (Tfh) cells are typically located in lymphoid organs where they promote B cell differentiation and function. Circulating CD4 T cells expressing…Abstract Number: 1386 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Tenosynovitis in the Forefoot at Disease Presentation Is Specific for RA: Results from a Cross-Sectional MRI Study in Early Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The foot is a preferential location for rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-manifestation, but physical examination of the metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints is difficult. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)…Abstract Number: 2456 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Disease Flares Among Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Treated with Continued Methotrexate Either Alone or in Combination with Adalimumab (Humira)
Background/Purpose : Some rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (pts) may experience flares in their disease even after reaching stable low disease activity (sLDA), but the consequences…Abstract Number: 1393 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Patient Characteristics, Treatment Strategy or Investigator Effect: An Analysis of Factors Driving Variation in Outcomes in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Outcomes in ERA are largely thought to reflect individual prognostic factors and treatment strategy employed. We hypothesize that an additional factor may be the…Abstract Number: 2939 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Clinical Correlate of Synovial Proliferation in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis
Clinical Correlate of Synovial Proliferation in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Background/Purpose: To determine whether semi-quantitative, quantitative assessment of synovitis severity or synovial perfusion data correlates best…
