Recurrent or Incident Pericarditis With Concurrent Autoimmune Disease: Stable Control With Rilonacept Interleukin-1 Pathway Inhibition
Background/Purpose: Up to 30% of patients with incident pericarditis will develop recurrent pericarditis (RP), with severe impact on quality of life. More than 20% of…Abstract Number: 0131 • ACR Convergence 2025
Libman-Sacks Endocarditis in APS: A Case-Control Study of Clinical and Serologic Features
Background/Purpose: Libman-Sacks endocarditis (LSE) is an inflammatory phenomenon, typically involving the mitral or aortic valve, that affects some patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and/or…Abstract Number: 1650 • ACR Convergence 2025
Malondialdehyde-Acetaldehyde and Citrulline Modified Proteins are Overexpressed in Cardiac Tissues in Rheumatoid Arthritis-Associated Heart Failure and Mediate Endothelial Cell Dysfunction
Background/Purpose: Previous reports show that malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde (MAA) adducts are overexpressed in RA, especially in joint/lung tissues, and that they colocalize with citrulline (CIT). This is…Abstract Number: 0065 • ACR Convergence 2025
Expression and Co-Localization of Malondialdehyde-Acetaldehyde and Citrullinated Proteins in Myocardial Tissues Precedes the Development of Cardiac Fibrosis in Collagen-Induced Arthritis

Association of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus With Incident Heart Failure Requiring Hospitalization
Background/Purpose: Cardiovascular complications are increasingly recognized as a significant cause of late mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Although coronary heart disease risk…Abstract Number: 1427 • ACR Convergence 2025
Impact of Biologic Therapy on Subclinical Atherosclerosis and Ventricular Function in Psoriatic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) have an increased cardiovascular (CV) risk due to a higher prevalence of comorbidities and chronic systemic inflammation. In those…Abstract Number: 1328 • ACR Convergence 2025
Mortality Trends of Hypertension in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis in the United States (1999–2020)
Background/Purpose: Hypertension is highly prevalent among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite this established relationship, there…
