The Effect of Arthroscopic Partial Meniscectomy in Patients with Osteoarthritis on Meniscal Body Extrusion
Background/Purpose: Meniscal damage and extrusion are both strongly associated with the progression of knee OA. Concerns have recently been raised that arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM)…Abstract Number: 2942 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Longitudinal Analyses of Progression of Brain Athrophy in Childhood-Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: The CNS involvement in cSLE has been described to occur from 25-90% in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE). The aim of the study was…Abstract Number: 854 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Golimumab Versus Pamidronate for the Treatment of Axial Spondyloarthropathy (SpA): A 48-Week Randomized Controlled Trial
Background/Purpose To compare the efficacy of golimumab(GLM) and pamidronate(PAM) in the treatment of SpA.Methods Inclusion criteria: (1) patients ≥18 years of age; (2) fulfills the…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
