Tocilizumab in management of refractory juvenile idiopathic arthritis, 10 years of experience at tertiary university hospital
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - - 2021
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most prevalent pediatric rheumatic disorder. Progress in modalities of therapy improves the disease outcome. We aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab (TCZ) in the management of systemic (sJIA) and polyarticular (pJIA) in children who are resistant to conventional as well as other biological therapies. In this retrospective study, we se...... hiện toàn bộ

Predictive factors for progression of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a 1-year study
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - Tập 42 Số 3 - Trang 111-119 - 2015
The cause of scoliosis remains unknown in 80–85% of adolescent patients. Treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) remains a complex challenge. The goal of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of different factors [age, initial Risser’s score and initial Cobb’s angle, surface electromyography (SEMG), activity of both paraspinal muscles at the apex of the curve] in the progressi...... hiện toàn bộ
Subclinical heart failure in juvenile idiopathic arthritis: a consequence of chronic inflammation and subclinical atherosclerosis
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - Tập 43 - Trang 78-83 - 2016
Chronic inflammation is the basis of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Hence, it is expected that JIA may produce harmful effects on the cardiovascular system. The aim of this study was to explore the presence of subclinical atherosclerosis and subclinical heart failure in JIA patients without manifest cardiovascular disease and to examine the risk factors that may be associated with the subcli...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of obesity on functional and laboratory parameters in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - Tập 43 - Trang 21-26 - 2016
Overweight patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have more disease activity, lower rates of remission, and twice as likely to require a tumor necrosis factor inhibitor. Provided that the prevalence of obesity is increasing, this may significantly affect RA incidence. An association between obesity and RA is logic, as biologic mechanisms of inflammation are present in fatty tissue, and it may be ...... hiện toàn bộ
Risk factors for acute coronary events in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - Tập 44 - Trang 164-171 - 2017
The aim of this study was to assess the role of disease activity, line of treatment, and carotid atherosclerosis in the risk for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. In this prospective study, we ascertained ACS on 124 patients with RA. Disease activity score 28 was used for the assessment of RA activity. Insulin resistance was evaluated using homeostasis model asse...... hiện toàn bộ
Health economics: direct cost of osteoporotic hip fracture in Egypt—an analysis for the Egyptian healthcare system by the Egyptian Academy of Bone Health
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - Tập 50 - Trang 1-8 - 2023
This work studies the direct cost of hip fractures in Egypt. The direct cost was calculated based on the incidence of hip fracture in Egypt retrieved from the national database. The result of this work raises red flags to the policy makers in Egypt that such fragility fractures are preventable, should appropriate approaches be implemented. This study provides an analysis for the healthcare system ...... hiện toàn bộ
Comparative effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, local corticosteroid injection, and conventional physiotherapy in treatment of chronic lateral epicondylitisAbstract Background Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is a popular overuse syndrome involving the forearm’s extensor tendons. Corticosteroid (CS) injection is the popular injection used for management of LE. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a noninvasive alternative inducing the neovascularization, tendon repairing, and decreasin...

Healing effects of prolotherapy in treatment of knee osteoarthritis healing effects of prolotherapy in treatment of knee osteoarthritis
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation - Tập 43 - Trang 47-52 - 2016
Pelotherapy is an injection therapy for chronic musculoskeletal pain. We conducted a two-arm controlled trial to assess the efficacy of prolotherapy for knee osteoarthritis (OA). A total of 104 adults with at least 6 months of painful primary knee OA were treated with dextrose prolotherapy (group I). They were divided into two subgroups: Ia and Ib. Subgroup Ia was treated with both techniques of p...... hiện toàn bộ
