The Relationship between Periodontitis and the Treatment Response to Biologics in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients; A Post-Hoc Analysis Using [18F] Fluorodeoxyglucose-Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) and periodontitis have been suggested to be related, and they share many clinical and pathologic features. Both diseases are chronic inflammatory diseases…Abstract Number: 487 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
ARE ANTI-Citrullinated Protein Antibody Levels Associated with Periodontal Disease in Rheumatoid Arthritis?
Background/Purpose: Positivity of anti-citrullinated peptides antibodies (ACPA) indicates severity in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). There is evidence for chronic periodontitis (PD) in RA autoimmune response by…Abstract Number: 5 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Rheumatoid Arthritis and Periodontitis: Association and Characteristics of Chronic Periodontitis
Background/Purpose: Recent clinical-epidemiological data suggest that periodontitis (P) shows higher prevalence in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. However, due to the scarcity of epidemiological studies, the…Abstract Number: 517 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association of Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity and Clinical Profile with Chronic Periodontitis
Background/Purpose: Recent clinical data show a clear association between periodontitis (P) and RA. However, there is controversy over whether severity of P is associated with…Abstract Number: 524 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Plasma Concentrations of Antibodies to Porphyromonas Gingivalis Are Increased before Onset of Symptom of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Chronic periodontitis has been considered as an important determinant in both occurrence and severity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It has been hypothesized that citrullination…Abstract Number: 2014 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Performance of Self-Reported Measures for Periodontitis in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis
Background/Purpose: Periodontitis (PD) is associated with many chronic health conditions including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Affecting one-third to one-half of the US population, the high prevalence…Abstract Number: 1402 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Parameters of Periodontitis Correlate with Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibodies and P. Gingivalis Antibody Titers in Patients with Early or Chronic Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose Emerging evidence suggests that periodontitis and periodontal pathogens, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), may be an environmental trigger for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We found…Abstract Number: 441 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Arthritis Associated Autoantibodies in Non-Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients with Mucosal Inflammation
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) associated autoantibodies, such as anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA), rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-carbamylated protein antibodies (anti-CarP), can be present in serum…
