The Association of Obesity with Pediatric Psoriatic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Obesity is associated with a significantly increased risk of inflammatory arthritis in adult patients with psoriasis. Obese adults with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) also…Abstract Number: 397 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Comorbidities Associated with Pediatric Psoriatic Arthritis
Background/Purpose: In adults, psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is associated with an increased prevalence of obesity, hypertension, and diabetes. It is not yet known if pediatric patients…Abstract Number: 1194 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Low Body Mass Index and Smoking Are Associated with a Lower Risk of Sarcoidosis: A Population-Based Nested Case-Control Study
Low Body Mass Index and Smoking Are Associated With a Lower Risk of Sarcoidosis: A Population-Based Nested Case-Control Study Background/Purpose: Sarcoidosis is a systemic disorder…Abstract Number: 1543 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Obese Patients with RA Have a More Seropositive and a More Active Disease with Less Deformities
Background/Purpose: An association between obesity and RA activity has been proposed in the literature. Kuwait has the highest obesity rate in The Middle East and…Abstract Number: 2139 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
High Fat Diet Induced Longitudinal Metabolic Changes Contribute to Acceleration of Osteoarthritis in Mice
Background/Purpose: The contribution of metabolic changes induced by high fat diet (HFD) to OA is poorly understood. We sought to determine if diet regulates…Abstract Number: 2289 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Obesity and Echocardiographic Changes in the Different Stages of Gout
Background/Purpose: Studies on gout and its stages as a cardiovascular (CV) risk factor are few and with contradictory results. We compared echocardiographic parameters, known as…Abstract Number: 2352 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Obesity-Related Systemic Inflammation and Knee Synovitis
Background/Purpose: Obesity, a major risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (OA), is a state of systemic inflammation through elaboration of adipokines (pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines) from…Abstract Number: 2369 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Obesity and Severity of Joint Space Narrowing Are Associated with Viscosupplementation Failure in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis. Post-Hoc Analysis of a Double-Blind, Controlled, Multicentre, Randomized Trial
Background/Purpose: Viscosupplementation (VS) is still controversial. One of the key points is the lack of well-identified factors of response. We aimed to identify clinical…Abstract Number: 2996 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
High Fat Diet-Induced Osteoarthritis Progression Is Dependent on Toll-like Receptor 4
Background/Purpose: Obesity is considered the primary preventable risk factor for OA, increasing the risk of developing OA in weight-bearing joints, especially the knee, as…Abstract Number: 3069 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Weight Loss in the Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Period Is Associated with Subsequent Increased Mortality in RA Patients and Matched Comparators: Evidence Against an RA-Specific Obesity Paradox
Background/Purpose : Weight loss may explain the obesity paradox for mortality, since those who unintentionally lose weight to reach normal BMI may have higher mortality…Abstract Number: 3087 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association of Weight Loss with Improved Disease Activity in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose : Obesity has been associated with worsened RA outcomes and increased disease activity. However, few longitudinal studies have investigated whether weight loss might improve…Abstract Number: 3193 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Is an Intensive Diet and Exercise Regimen Cost-Effective for Obese and Overweight Patients with Symptomatic Knee OA?
Background/Purpose: About 50% of persons with knee OA are obese. Quality-adjusted life-year losses due to knee OA and obesity exceed 3.5 per person. The results…Abstract Number: 2305 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Relationship Between Anxiety, Depression, Sleep, Fibromyalgia and BMI in Patients with Rheumatic Disease
Background/Purpose: Patients with rheumatic diseases often have comorbidities that complicate their psychological well-being and affect prognosis. In this study, we looked at 216 patients with…Abstract Number: 2407 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Comparison of Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment in the Non-Obese Versus Obese Populations Across Different Medical Specialties
Background/Purpose: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in the obese population is underdiagnosed and routinely undertreated, as providers often attribute pain to excess weight without considering articular…Abstract Number: 2596 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Less Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Power Doppler Activity Seen in Obese Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Studies report that obese and overweight patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are less likely to attain remission and more likely to have limited therapeutic…
