The Risk Factors of Developing Adult T Cell Leukemia (ATL) in Human T Cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) Positive Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis in Endemic Area, Japan; A Retrospective Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the causative agent of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). ATL is an aggressive T-cell malignancy caused…Abstract Number: 1464 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2016
Utility of Relative Cardiovascular Risk Score Scales and Vascular Age Predictors in Patients with Reumathoid Arthritis UNDER 50 YEARS of Age
Background/Purpose: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is associated with a greater cardiovascular mortality than the general population of the same age and gender. Cardiovascular events prediction scales,…Abstract Number: 1506 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2015
EULAR Recommendations for Cardiovascular Risk Management in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Other Inflammatory Joint Diseases – 2015 Update
Background/Purpose: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (and other inflammatory joint diseases (IJD)) have an increased cardiovascular (CV) risk. In 2009 a EULAR taskforce recommended screening,…Abstract Number: 2103 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
Benefits of Early Onset of DAS28 (CRP) <2.6 on Physical Functioning, Quality of Life and Resource Use Among RA Patients in a Clinical Practice Setting
Background/Purpose: Guidelines in RA recommend that treatment should be aimed at reaching a target of remission or low disease activity (LDA) as soon as possible,…Abstract Number: 1362 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
Impact of Rapid Attainment of Stringent Measures of Efficacy in Rheumatoid Arthritis on Patient-Reported Outcomes
Background/Purpose: Treatment guidelines in RA recommend that therapies aim to reach a target of remission or low disease activity (LDA) and that these targets should…Abstract Number: 1141 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
Comparisons of Quality of Life, Resource Use and Physical Functioning in RA Patients Classified As High, Moderate or Low Risk for Rapid Radiographic Progression
Background/Purpose: We developed and validated a prognostic model to identify subjects with elevated risk of rapid radiographic progression (RRP). The objective of this study was…Abstract Number: 898 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
Traditional Cardiovascular Risk-Factor Management in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Compared with Matched Non-Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients in a US Managed Care Setting
Background/Purpose: Studies have suggested suboptimal care of traditional cardiovascular risk factors (CRF) in patients (pts) with RA as a reason for elevated CV risk compared…Abstract Number: 385 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
Validation of a Prognostic Model to Predict Structural Damage Assessed By X-Ray in Patients with RA Using MRI Data from a Clinical Trial
Background/Purpose: We developed and validated a prognostic model for rapid radiographic progression (RRP) using X-ray data to identify RA patients (pts) at risk of structural…Abstract Number: 96 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
Comparison of Cardiovascular Risk Factor Management in Patients with RA and Matched Non-RA Patients
Background/Purpose : The relative risk of acute myocardial infarction in RA patients (pts) has been shown to range from 1.5 to 2.0, with a 1.4–2.7-fold…
