ObjectiveTo develop and validate an international set of classification criteria
for primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS) using guidelines from the American College
of Rheumatology (ACR) and the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR). These
criteria were developed for use in individuals with signs and/or symptoms
suggestive of SS.MethodsWe assigned preliminary importance weights to a
consensus list... hiện toàn bộ

ObjectiveTo develop and validate new classification criteria for adult and
juvenile idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) and their major
subgroups.MethodsCandidate variables were assembled from published criteria and
expert opinion using consensus methodology. Data were collected from 47
rheumatology, dermatology, neurology, and pediatric clinics worldwide. Several
statistical methods were uti... hiện toàn bộ
Release of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps by Neutrophils Stimulated With Antiphospholipid Antibodies: A Newly Identified Mechanism of Thrombosis in the Antiphospholipid Syndrome Tập 67 Số 11 - Trang 2990-3003 - 2015
Srilakshmi Yalavarthi, Travis J. Gould, Ashish N. Rao, Levi F. Mazza, Alexandra E. Morris, Carlos A. Núñez‐Álvarez, Diego F. Hernández‐Ramírez, Paula Bockenstedt, Patricia C. Liaw, Antonio R. Cabral, Jason S. Knight
ObjectiveAntiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), especially those targeting
β2‐glycoprotein I (β2GPI), are well known to activate endothelial cells,
monocytes, and platelets, with prothrombotic implications. In contrast, the
interaction of aPL with neutrophils has not been extensively studied. Neutrophil
extracellular traps (NETs) have recently been recognized as an important
activator of the coagulati... hiện toàn bộ
18F‐Fluorodeoxyglucose–Positron Emission Tomography As an Imaging Biomarker in a Prospective, Longitudinal Cohort of Patients With Large Vessel Vasculitis Tập 70 Số 3 - Trang 439-449 - 2018

ObjectiveTo assess the clinical value of18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron
emission tomography (PET) in a prospective cohort of patients with large vessel
vasculitis (LVV) and comparator subjects.MethodsPatients with Takayasu arteritis
and giant cell arteritis were studied, along with a comparator group consisting
of patients with hyperlipidemia, patients with diseases that mimicLVV, and

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in 3 randomized,
placebo‐controlled studies in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (SpA).
Studies 1 and 2 included patients with radiographic axial SpA (anti–tumor
necrosis factor [anti‐TNF]–naive patients and patients with inadequate response
or intolerance to anti‐TNF, respectively); study 3 patients had nonradiographic
axial SpA.Meth... hiện toàn bộ
Intraarticular Sprifermin (Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 18) in Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Trial Tập 66 Số 7 - Trang 1820-1831 - 2014
Stefan Lohmander, Scarlett Hellot, Don Dreher, Eduard F. W. Krantz, Dawie Kruger, Ali Guermazi, F. Eckstein
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraarticular sprifermin
(recombinant human fibroblast growth factor 18) in the treatment of symptomatic
knee osteoarthritis (OA).MethodsThe study was a randomized, double‐blind,
placebo‐controlled, proof‐of‐concept trial. Intraarticular sprifermin was
evaluated at doses of 10 μg, 30 μg, and 100 μg. The primary efficacy end point
was change in centr... hiện toàn bộ
Inhibition of Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity by Interleukin‐6: Implications for the Pathogenesis of Macrophage Activation Syndrome Tập 67 Số 11 - Trang 3037-3046 - 2015
Loredana Cifaldi, Giusi Prencipe, Ivan Caiello, Claudia Bracaglia, Franco Locatelli, Fabrizio De Benedetti, Raffaele Strippoli
ObjectiveSystemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is associated with high
levels of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) in the serum and synovial fluid, and impairment
of natural killer (NK) cell function is often observed. This study was
undertaken to evaluate a possible link between these 2 biologic findings and
whether they may be associated with the development of macrophage activation
syndrome, a condit... hiện toàn bộ
Review: Synovial Cell Metabolism and Chronic Inflammation in Rheumatoid Arthritis Tập 70 Số 7 - Trang 984-999 - 2018
Jane Falconer, Anne N. Murphy, Stephen P. Young, Andrew R. Clark, Stefano Tiziani, Mònica Gumà, Christopher D. Buckley
Metabolomic studies of body fluids show that immune‐mediated inflammatory
diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are associated with metabolic
disruption. This is likely to reflect the increased bioenergetic and
biosynthetic demands of sustained inflammation and changes in nutrient and
oxygen availability in damaged tissue. The synovial membrane lining layer is the
principal site of inflammati... hiện toàn bộ
