Prevention of Stroke in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

The risk of cerebrovascular disease is increased among rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and remains an underserved area of medical need. Only a minor proportion of RA patients achieve suitable stroke prevention. Classical cardiovascular risk factors appear to be under-diagnosed and undertreated

Tocilizumab and the risk for cardiovascular disease: a direct comparison among biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs for rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Multiple studies have observed seemingly unfavorable changes in lipid profiles associated with IL6 receptor antagonists (IL-6R) and some other rheumatoid arthritis (RA) therapies. The real-world cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk associated with the first approved anti IL-6R medication for

The risk of cardiovascular events associated with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in rheumatoid arthritis

Only registered users can translate articles

Objective: To examine the comparative effects of biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) and tofacitinib against conventional synthetic (cs) DMARDs on incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with rheumatoid

Rheumatoid arthritis and ischemic strokes in a young woman. Are these conditions interrelated?

Only registered users can translate articles

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease which is associated with an increased risk of cardio and cerebrovascular pathology. A 48-year old Caucasian female was admitted for diffuse arthralgias. She was diagnosed eight years before with seropositive RA and she received

Potential benefits of biologics on stroke and mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: A nationwide population-based cohort study in Taiwan.

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a vasculitis of unknown etiology that affects medium-sized and large arteries, and is the most common form of vasculitis in populations of predominantly Northern European ancestry. If left untreated, GCA can lead to significant morbidity including blindness, stroke,

Association Between Ischemic Stroke and Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitor Therapy in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) may influence risk and mortality after ischemic stroke by reducing inflammation. This study was undertaken to examine the association of TNFi with the risk of incident

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To examine disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) treatments and estimate risk of a subsequent cardiovascular (CV) event following an initial CV event in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), or psoriasis (PsO). METHODS We analyzed data from MarketScan®

Comparative Risk of Cardiovascular Events with Biologic and Synthetic Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the comparative effects of tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors (TNFi), non-TNFi biologic and conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) on cardiovascular risk in rheumatoid arthritis

Genetic Variants of the NLRP3 Inflammasome Are Associated with Stroke in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Inflammasomes are intracellular protein complexes important for the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Studies have suggested that the NLRP3 inflammasome influences both the severity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and development of atherosclerosis. Therefore, we investigated whether
