To Which Extent May The Familial Risk Of Rheumatoid Arthritis Be Explained By Established Risk Factors?
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex inflammatory disease known to aggregate within families, implicating the crucial role of shared genetic and/or environmental factors in…Abstract Number: 2271 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Dietary Sodium Increases The Risk For Rheumatoid Arthritis Among Smokers – Results From a Nested Case-Control Study
Background/Purpose: Recent studies using animal models and human cells ex vivo have indicated that sodium chloride may affect the immune system by the inducting of pathogenic Th17…Abstract Number: 2000 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Changes In The Prevalence Of Gout In The United States General Population Between 1960 and 2010: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys
Background/Purpose: Despite the widely shared impression that the prevalence of gouty arthritis (gout) has increased over time in the US few population data are available.…Abstract Number: 1773 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
The Contribution Of Environmental Factors To Familial Risk Of Rheumatoid Arthritis By Serologic Phenotypes Among Women In a Longitudinal Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Familial risk of RA is composed of shared genetic and environmental factors. Previous studies exploring familial risk of RA have not incorporated environmental factors…Abstract Number: 2692 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Diet and Other Lifestyle Related Factors and the Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: There is a growing interest in the role of lifestyle in developing chronic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Our aim was to investigate…Abstract Number: 2141 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Effects of Cigarette Smoking On EARLY Arthritis (CONAART)
Background/Purpose: According to recent reports the cigarette smoking persons have 2-4 times greater risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The cigarette smoking is associated with…Abstract Number: 1692 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Lung Microbiome Differs in Subjects with Rheumatoid Arthritis-Related Autoimmunity without Inflammatory Arthritis Compared to Healthy Seronegative Controls
Background/Purpose: Emerging data suggest that microorganisms and mucosal inflammation may play a role in the etiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Furthermore, our published findings…Abstract Number: 1210 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Effect of HLA-DRB1*0901 Suggest Distinctive Mechanisms of Rheumatoid Arthritis Susceptibility
Background/Purpose: Although HLA-DRB1 shared epitope (SE) alleles and DRB1*0901 have repeatedly been shown to be associated with RA susceptibility, the effect of each allele on…Abstract Number: 976 • 2012 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Effect of Interactions Between Validated Rheumatoid Arthritis Genetic Factors and Environmental Factors On Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk
Background/Purpose: Studies have shown associations between environmental factors and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) risk. Also, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic markers associated with RA…
