Elevated Serum Resistin Levels In Rheumatoid Arthritis With Periodontitis
Background/Purpose: Epidemiological relationships between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis (PD) have been revealed recently. However, the pathologic link between RA and periodontitis has remained unclear.…Abstract Number: 2417 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Antibodies To Porphyromonas Gingivalis Peptidylarginine Deiminase In Rheumatoid Arthritis Are Not Directed Against The Autocitrullinated Enzyme
Background/Purpose: Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) has received considerable attention by investigators trying to explain the striking association of periodontal disease (PD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Bacterial…Abstract Number: 2422 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-P. Gingivalis antibody Is Correlated With Severity Of Periodontitis But Not With Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity In RA
Background/Purpose: Periodontitis (PD) has been suggested to be one of risk factors for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. ginvivalis, Pg) is a gram-negative anaerobic…Abstract Number: 2233 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Porphyromonas Gingivalis peptidylarginine Deiminase Exacerbates Collagen-Induced Arthritis In C57BL/6 mice
Background/Purpose: There is increasing molecular and epidemiological evidence linking Porphyromonas gingivalis to RA. P. gingivalis is unique amongst periodontal pathogens in possessing a citrullinating enzyme…Abstract Number: 2217 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Experimental Arthritis Exacerbates Periodontal Disease But Periodontal Infection Does Not Exacerbated Experimental Arthritis
Background/Purpose: There is a proposed link between periodontal disease (PD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A substantial, although not unanimous, body of epidemiological evidence indicates a…Abstract Number: 1378 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Associations Of Periodontitis (PD) With Established Seropositive Rheumatoid Arthritis are Independent of Smoking and Other Risk Factors
Background/Purpose: Periodontitis (PD) has been proposed as a risk factor in RA. Reports have suggested that this association may be due to confounding from smoking…Abstract Number: 1360 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Evaluation Of Biomarkers Involved In Periondontal Disease Including Porphyromonas Gingivalis Antibodies To Predict Response To Infliximab In Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: This study evaluates biological markers of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) severity including matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) serology during infliximab therapy…Abstract Number: 812 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Alveolar Bone Loss Is Associated With Disease Activity and ACPA Expression In Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: Periodontitis (PD) has been implicated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis including the expression of anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA). ACPA, in turn, have been shown…Abstract Number: 517 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Antibody Responses To Oral Bacteria In Patients With Primary Sjögren’s Syndrome and Comparison With Rheumatoid Arthritis and Periodontitis
Background/Purpose: We set out to examine peripheral blood antibody ELISA responses to common oral bacteria in primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) to identify potential bacterial triggers…Abstract Number: 115 • 2013 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association Between History Of Periodontitis and Risk Of Rheumatoid Arthritis In Individuals With and Without Diabetes Mellitus: A Population-Based Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: To examine whether the association between periodontitis (PD) history and the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) risk differs between individuals with and without diabetes mellitus (DM).Methods:…
