Comfort Levels and Practice Patterns for Osteoporosis-Related Care Among Persons Living with HIV in Peru: A National Physician Survey
Background/Purpose: As they age, persons living with HIV (PLWH) are at increased risk for osteoporosis due to chronic infection and antiretroviral therapies (ART). In Peru,…Abstract Number: 1318 • ACR Convergence 2022
Low-Dose Prednisolone (≤5 Mg/d) Is Not Associated with Deleterious Effects on Bone Mineral Density: Baseline Findings in a Cohort of Rheumatic Disease Patients with Prior Glucocorticoid Exposure
Background/Purpose: Inflammatory rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (iRMD) are associated with increased systemic bone loss that is mediated by chronic inflammation, treatment with glucocorticoids (GC), and…Abstract Number: 0889 • ACR Convergence 2022
Serum Adipokines Predict Incident Osteoporotic Fracture in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Adipokines are fat and muscle-secreted protein hormones that regulate metabolism. Adiponectin has been associated with fracture in the general population while the role of…Abstract Number: 1319 • ACR Convergence 2022
Prognostic Utility of Metacarpal Bone Mineral Density Measurement in Patients with Recent-onset Arthritis by Assessment of Radiographic Progression at 2-year Follow Up
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoporosis (OP) have a complex interplay in terms of pathogenic mechanisms. In this regard, radiogrammetry (DXR) of the hand, a…Abstract Number: 1276 • ACR Convergence 2022
Bone Density Imaging: Evaluation of Equipment and Process of Care Quality in US Veterans
Background/Purpose: Osteoporotic fractures contribute to significant morbidity and mortality. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a valuable tool to identify osteoporosis, assess fracture risk, and monitor…Abstract Number: 1320 • ACR Convergence 2022
