Radiomics Non-Invasively Conveys Time-Resolved Molecular Pathway Activity in Experimental Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease
Background/Purpose: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a major cause of mortality in patients with autoimmune-related CTD such as SSc and RA. Molecular characterization of the…Abstract Number: 1558 • ACR Convergence 2024
Mapping in Healthy Subjects Different Body Areas for Dermal Thickness and Skin Hardness by High Frequency Sonography and Durometry
Background/Purpose: Skin involvement is a prominent feature of systemic sclerosis (SSc). The reliability of non-invasive tools such as high frequency skin ultrasound (HFSU) and durometry,…Abstract Number: 1956 • ACR Convergence 2024
Artificial Intelligence Enhanced Analysis of Nailfold Capillaries by Dermatoscopy in Rheumatology Centers
Background/Purpose: The use of dermatoscopes in rheumatology has been established for several years. However, the application of artificial intelligence for the detection of abnormalities in…Abstract Number: 2119 • ACR Convergence 2024
IL-17 Blockade Therapy Improves Symptoms in Patients with Active Axial Spondyloarthritis Without Occurrence of New Vertebral Fractures
Background/Purpose: Axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) is characterized by abnormal bone formation and, paradoxically, bone loss accompanied by increased bone fragility and vertebral fracture risk. Tumor necrosis…Abstract Number: 0218 • ACR Convergence 2024
Incidental Findings on Whole Body 18F-FDG PET/CT in a Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Trial Population
Background/Purpose: Performing whole body imaging inevitably reveals incidental findings in the majority of cases. A clinical trial was conducted to determine whether different treatment strategies…Abstract Number: 0633 • ACR Convergence 2024
Novel LINE-1 Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors Can Suppress Type I Interferon Responses and Are Promising Therapeutics for Lupus
Background/Purpose: Long Interspersed Element-1 (LINE-1) retrotransposon encodes for two proteins, ORF1p and ORF2p. ORF1p is a chaperone protein while ORF2p contains reverse transcriptase (RT) and…Abstract Number: 1092 • ACR Convergence 2024
Chronic Kidney Disease Is Associated with Increased Glucose Uptake-associated Metabolic Activity of Visceral Adipose and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue in Gout Patients
Background/Purpose: Gout, a condition characterized by elevated uric acid levels, is linked to multiple complications, including coronary artery disease, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus.…Abstract Number: 1567 • ACR Convergence 2024
Systemic Sclerosis Is Associated with Sub-Clinical Abnormalities in Myocardial Energetics, Perfusion and Increased Fibrosis
