Progression of Lupus Pathology Is Correlative with Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Abnormalities, Diminished Function, and Inflammatory Histopathology in an Animal Model
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease causing inflammation throughout the body and cardiovascular involvement is a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality…Abstract Number: 297 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
How Useful Is Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in Monitoring Patients with Myositis?
Background/Purpose: MRI is commonly used to assess muscle inflammation in myositis. Muscle edema on fat-suppressed sequences is thought to reflect active inflammation. However, it is…Abstract Number: 3125 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
White Matter Magnetization Transfer Ratio Histogram Peak Height Helps Identifying Inflammatory Neuropsychiatric Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) can be used to detect microstructural cerebral changes in normal-appearing brain tissue of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) patients. Our…Abstract Number: 313 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Magnetic Resonance Imaging Outcomes Using an Intra-Articular Injection (SM04690) in the Treatment of Osteoarthritis of the Knee: Interim, Exploratory Analysis of Results from a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 1 Study
Background/Purpose: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage, subchrondral bone alterations and varying degrees of synovitis. Current OA treatments are limited…Abstract Number: 2986 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Fat Metaplasia on MRI of the Sacroiliac Joints Is a Lead Indicator of Radiographic Progression in the Spine of Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis
Fat Metaplasia on MRI of the Sacroiliac joints is a Lead Indicator of Radiographic Progression in the Spine of Patients with Ankylosing SpondylitisMaksymowych WP, Wichuk…Abstract Number: 2993 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
MRI in Neuropsychiatric Lupus: Correlations with the 1999 ACR Case Definitions
Background/Purpose: Neurological manifestations in SLE are diverse. Because of its varied manifestations and low prevalence, the ACR has developed nomenclature and case definitions for neuropsychiatric…Abstract Number: 2661 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Serum Neuronal Biomarkers and Brain Atrophy in Childhood-Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose We aimedto investigate the association of serum biomarkers and regional and diffuse brain atrophy in cSLE. Methods We included consecutive cSLE patients (disease-onset before…Abstract Number: 2660 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Metabolic Syndrome Features Can Influenciate Cognitive Functions and Brain Lesions in Childhood-Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: The underlying factor for an association between the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and cognitive decline might be a subclinical inflammation. Inflammatory mechanisms are hypothesized to…Abstract Number: 2613 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Positive Spine MRI for Inflammation Predicts Radiographic Progression in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis
Background/Purpose: Inflammation at vertebral corners on MRI has been shown to predict development of syndesmophytes in patients with AS. However, it is unclear at a…Abstract Number: 1183 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Validation of the Omeract Psoriatic Arthritis Magnetic Resonance Imaging Score for the Hand and Foot in a Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial
Background/Purpose The joint involvement in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is heterogeneous, and inflammation is seen in both axial and peripheral joints, including the small joints of…Abstract Number: 1174 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Evaluating MRI-Detected Tenosynovitis of the Hand and Wrist in Early Arthritis
Background/Purpose Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a sensitive method to detect local inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), visualizing synovitis, bone marrow edema and tenosynovitis. The…
