Abstract
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic disease affecting the immune system and it particularly targets synovial joints, bringing about inflammation and causing functional limitations. Objective: To explore the evidence showing the influence of early menopause in women with rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: In this systematic review, all the literature from 2010 to 2019 was searched with specific keywords “menopause, premature menopause, early menopause, rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic diseases” with the use of Boolean operators. Databases that were thoroughly searched included Google Scholar, PubMed and HEC digital library. After careful screening, 10 studies that met the inclusion criteria were included in the review. The quality of these articles was assessed using the AXIS tool for that cross-sectional studies. Results: These studies indicated that post-menopausal women are at higher risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis and they are more likely to have early or premature menopause (in ≤45 years). At baseline, the post-menopausal women had high health assessment questionnaire scores than pre-menopausal women. Conclusion: This review states that menopausal women are highly at risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis, especially those experiencing this at an early age and this condition can also worsen arthritic symptoms. Hormonal changes may influence pathways that are distinct from those leading to severe and progressive rheumatoid arthritis.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that can cause joint pain and damage throughout your body. About 75% of Rheumatoid arthritis patients are women. In fact, 1 – 3% of women may get rheumatoid arthritis in their lifetime. The disease most often begins between the ages of 30 and 50. Rheumatoid arthritis occurs when your immune system attacks the synovium, the lining of the membranes that surround your joints. The resulting inflammation thickens the synovium, which can eventually destroy the cartilage and bone within the joint. The tendons and ligaments that hold the joint together weaken and stretch. Gradually, the joint loses its shape and alignment. It also affects other organs of body like: skin, eyes, heart, kidneys, and lungs. The main risk factors that cause Rheumatoid arthritis are Age, Gender, Genetics, weight, smoking, diet, etc. Three main ways to treat rheumatoid arthritis are Drugs, physical therapies and surgery. There are four main groups of drugs that are used to treat rheumatoid arthritis are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs , disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs and steroids (also known as corticosteroids). Collagen induced arthritis and Adjuvant arthritis are the most commonly used standard animal models in Rheumatoid arthritis. This literature review assessed the sign & symptoms, risk factors, etiology, treatment and standard animal models for Rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract Rheumatoid arthritis is a common chronic inflammatory disease with substantial economic, social, and personal costs. Its pathogenesis is multifactorial and complex. The ultimate goal of rheumatoid arthritis treatment is stopping or slowing down the disease progression. In the past two decades, invention of new medicines, especially biologic agents, revolutionized the management of this disease. These agents have been associated with an improved prognosis and clinical remission, especially in patients who did not respond to traditional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Improvement in the understanding of the rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis leads to the development of novel biologic therapeutic approaches. In the present paper, we summarized the current therapeutics, especially biologic agents, available for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

The purpose of this work is to perform a general analysis of relevant literature on the issue of kidney damage in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Kidney damage in patients with rheumatic diseases is potentially dangerous, as it can lead to the development of terminal renal failure that may require replacement renal therapy. Amyloidosis often leads to kidney failure in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Renal amyloidosis more often develops in patients with acute course of rheumatoid arthritis and under maximal immunological disorders. In patients with renal amyloidosis against the background of rheumatoid arthritis, manifestations of joint affection decrease, while the renal-uremic syndrome takes a predominant role. Signs of nephrotic syndrome and chronic renal failure develop gradually. Kidney damage can be caused by medications for rheumatoid arthritis. The choice of the optimal scheme of individual-centred therapy is vitally important for patients, since every aggravation of both rheumatic disease and secondary renal damage leads to the progression of chronic renal failure.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is commonly involved in various immune-mediated rheumatic disorders accounting for significant disability and impaired quality of life. The aim of our study was to assess inflammatory and immune parameters in patients with TMJ arthritis related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and to identify potential relation with severity and dysfunction of TMJ pathology. We performed a cross-sectional study in a cohort of 433 consecutive RA, 32 JIA, 258 AS, and 103 PsA. Only patients presenting with clinically significant TMJ involvement (273) related to their rheumatic condition were included in the final analysis. TMJ involvement is traditionally described in chronic inflammatory rheumatic disorders, particularly in patients with higher levels of inflammation as detected in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. Disease activity and severity, as well as biological and positive serological assessments (rheumatoid factor, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide, IL-1) remain significant determinants of the severity of TMJ arthritis.

The role played by HCV in the genesis of many autoimmune disorders has been reported in several studies. In particular, the onset of arthritis has been described in about 2–3% of HCV infection cases. At present, this HCV-related arthritis is classified as a reactive arthritis, but a real distinction of this form from classical rheumatoid arthritis is often difficult. In this presentation, the Authors distinguish two arthritic forms observed in HCV-related arthritis patients: one, characterized by asymmetrical oligoarticular-involvement, and another, with poly-articular symmetrical involvement. The Authors suggest that the latter can be considered as a form of rheumatoid arthritis, because of the similarity of the main clinical aspects and laboratory findings (rheumatoid factor, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies) to those of classical rheumatoid arthritis, which make the two forms indistinguishable. Therefore, HCV could be considered the etiologic agent of a limited number of cases of rheumatoid arthritis.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are used for pain and to slow the progression of rheumatoid arthritis. Accordingly, the discovery of rheumatoid arthritis active compounds from the ethanol-water fraction Coleus atropurpureus (EWC) was conducted to characterize the isolated compounds as well as the anti-rheumatic effects of the EWC induced Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA). We conducted in vivo study in rats which were randomly divided into 5 groups. Group 1 was only given CFA as a negative control. Group 2 as positive control was orally exposed to diclofenac potassium (9 mg/BW). Three groups were given different EWCs orally as follows: 11.25 mg/BW, 22.5 mg/BW, and 45 mg/BW, respectively. Rheumatism rates were then compared with positive controls using a visual arthritic scoring system. The compounds identified by isolation of the EWC of Coleus atropurpureus predicted forskolin. The ethanol-water fraction Coleus atropurpureus did not act as an anti-rheumatic arthritis agent in CFA-induced rats.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease that can affect many joints simultaneously and whose etiology is unknown. Septic arthritis is suppurative inflammation caused frequently by bacteria and rarely by mycetes. In the event that diagnosis is late and treatment is inadequate, it can cause joint and bone damage that can affect a person for lifetime. For this reason, it should be always considered as an emergency. Septic arthritis is commonly notified in rheumatoid arthritis patients. In this presentation a case that is followed with rheumatois arthritis diagnosis for 2 years and having septic arthritis in oligoarthritis etiology developed during the treatment is presented.

Plectranthus amboinicus(P. amboinicus) is a folk herb that is used to treat inflammatory diseases or swelling symptoms in Taiwan. We investigated therapeutic efficacy ofP. amboinicusin treating Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) using collagen-induced arthritis animal model. Arthritis was induced in Lewis rats by immunization with bovine type II collagen. Serum anti-collagen IgG, IgM and C-reactive protein (CRP) were analyzed. To understand the inflammation condition of treated animals, production of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β from peritoneal exudates cells (PEC) were also analyzed.P. amboinicussignificantly inhibited the footpad swelling and arthritic symptoms in collagen-induced arthritic rats, while the serum anti-collagen IgM and CRP levels were consistently decreased. The production of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were also decreased in the high dosage ofP. amboinicusgroup. Here, we demonstrate the potential anti-arthritic effect ofP. amboinicusfor treating RA, which might confer its anti-rheumatic activity. This differs the pharmacological action mode of indomethacin.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (a chronic inflammatory disease) in comparison to a control group with osteoarthritis (a chronic non-inflammatory degenerative disease) and to identify the sociodemographic and clinical variables associated with depressive symptoms in these patients. METHOD: Sixty-two rheumatoid arthritis patients and 60 osteoarthritis patients participated in the study. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Disability Index of the Health Assessment Questionnaire were applied. RESULTS: The prevalence of depressive symptoms was of 53.2% in rheumatoid arthritis and 28.3% in osteoarthritis (p = 0.005). The prevalence of anxiety symptoms was of 48.4% in rheumatoid arthritis and 50.0% in osteoarthritis (p = 0.859). The mean (and standard deviation) scores in the Disability Index of the Health Assessment Questionnaire were 1.4 (0.8) in rheumatoid arthritis and 1.4 (0.6) in osteoarthritis (p = 0.864). Rheumatoid arthritis patients with depressive symptoms had lower education and higher disease activity and functional disability. CONCLUSION: Although these two rheumatic diseases are similar in terms of the pain and functional disability that they cause, a significantly higher prevalence of depressive symptoms was found in rheumatoid arthritis patients. This difference might be explained by the hypothesis of a neuroimmunobiological mechanism related to cytokines in inflammatory diseases, which has been considered as a candidate to the development of depressive symptoms.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease, which affects about 0.33 to 2.65% of the population. In RA Synovium contain various type of immune cell. In which only one cell population cannot cause rheumatoid arthritis that requires more than one cell population. In normal condition, they act as a switch (active or inactive the cell signaling). It controls cell growth, proliferation or metastasizes. In an autoimmune disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the body's cells and tissues. Mostly cells are present in limited numbers in normal human synovium, but in rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory joint diseases, this population can expand to constitute 5-20% or more of all synovial cells. Recent investigations in a murine model have demonstrated that cells can have a critical role in the generation of inflammation within the joint.

This type of research is cross sectional, this study aims to determine the factors that influence the occurrence of rheumatoid arthritis in the elderly at Pematangsiantar Public Health Center. The subjects of this study were the elderly with a sample of 99 respondents. Data collection tools are questionnaires to answer questions and observation sheets. Rheumatoid arthritis is a disorder in the form of stiffness, swelling, pain and redness in the joints and surrounding tissues. Joint sufferers around the world have reached the number, especially in Indonesia, rheumatoid arthritis reaches 23.6% to 31.3%. This figure shows that the incidence of rheumatoid arthritis is high. There are several factors that influence the occurrence of rheumatoid arthritis in the elderly, namely, genetics, obesity, food and activity/work. This genetic factor influences the occurrence of rheumatoid arthritis in the elderly at Pematangsiantar Public Health Center. The highest frequency which has the highest genetic factor is 12 respondents (12.1%) and the lowest frequency is 87 respondents (87.9%). Obesity factors affect the occurrence of rheumatoid arthritis in the elderly at Pematangsiantar Public Health Center 29 respondents (29%) and the lowest is 70 respondents (70.0%) but affects the incidence of rheumatic arthritis in the elderly.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Advances in understanding the biology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have opened new therapeutic avenues. One of these, gene therapy, involves the delivery to patients of genes encoding anti-arthritic proteins. This approach has shown efficacy in animal models of RA, and the first human, phase I trial has just been successfully completed. Hand surgery featured prominently in this pioneering study, as a potentially anti-arthritic gene encoding the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist was transferred to the metacarpophalangeal joints of subjects with RA one week before total joint arthroplasty. This study has confirmed that it is possible to transfer genes safely to human joints. It should pave the way for additional application of gene therapy to arthritis and other orthopaedic conditions.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Hypertension or high blood pressure (BP) is a long-term ailment in which blood pressure in the arteries raises persistently. Blood pressure can be determined using two methods, systolic pressure which is the uppermost pressure and diastolic pressure which is the lowermost blood pressure in the arterial system. It is estimated that worldwide around 1.13 billion persons are suffering from hypertension. In addition, the World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that 13% of all deaths in the world are caused by hypertension. Furthermore, they set a target to reduce its frequency by 25% from the year 2010 to 2025.1,2 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and pain. Approximately 1% of the global population is diagnosed with this disease. Rheumatoid arthritis can be associated with multiple comorbidities that can reduce a patient's quality of life (QoL), upturn the economic burden of the disease, and may increase the rate of mortality. Cardiovascular comorbidities are quite common in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Cardiovascular comorbidity is estimated to be about 1.5 times more frequent in patients with rheumatoid arthritis than in healthy people. Many studies have suggested that of all cardiovascular disorders, hypertension is the most important and changeable risk factor in subjects suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. Based on a pool of 115,867 insurance claims, about 76% of rheumatoid arthritis patients in America were diagnosed with hypertension. These results are similar to studies conducted in Europe and Canada that have shown a higher incidence of hypertension in patients with rheumatoid arthritis compared to the normal group. It is unknown why patients with rheumatoid arthritis pose such a high risk for hypertension. Reduced physical activity, obesity, systemic inflammation, and medications used to treat rheumatoid arthritis can increase the risk of high blood pressure.3 Around 0.55% of the urban population in northern Pakistan suffers from rheumatoid arthritis, while the incidence rate is close to 0.14% in southern Pakistan.4 There are many reasons why people with rheumatoid arthritis have high blood pressure. Chronic inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis results in increased rigidity of arteries leading to increase systolic blood pressure. The first presumed link between low-grade systemic inflammation and hypertension has been identified in previous studies conducted on the general population. In rheumatoid arthritis, elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) increase the likelihood of developing high blood pressure. Several mechanisms may be implicated in the development of hypertension with a high concentration of C-reactive protein. For example, nitric oxide synthesis may be reduced because of the increased concentration of the C-reactive protein that will cause vasoconstriction, platelet activation and thrombosis. Additionally, increased expression of the type 1 angiotensin receptor and stimulation of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) may contribute to the progression of hypertension. Occasionally, restriction on exercise due to the fear of worsening disease condition is recommended (unwarranted) by healthcare professionals, and it could be a reason for the inactive and sedentary lifestyle of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. In turn, physical idleness can lead to obesity, which may be linked independently to high blood pressure in rheumatoid arthritis. Obesity and familial history of hypertension are significant predictors of premature death. A study has also demonstrated that an increase in sodium (Na) intake and a decrease in potassium (K) intake can play a significant role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis and high blood pressure. The urinary Na/K quotient may be useful as an important parameter of hypertension in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and in normal subjects. Optimal cardiovascular risk management continues to be a major challenge. In this regard, increased awareness and management are needed to reduce the high risk of cardiovascular disorders in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. To date, only a few studies have investigated the potential relationship between high blood pressure and these factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. A lifestyle shift (i.e. exercise, smoking cessation, eating a balanced diet, reducing the use of ethanol and salt) is needed in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis to manage their high blood pressure and improve their quality of life (QoL). To treat rheumatoid arthritis, many medications are routinely prescribed, including cyclooxygenase, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroids, and disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). The use of these drugs in rheumatoid arthritis should always be considered in conjunction with comorbid hypertension. Clinicians should closely monitor such patients for prior diagnosis and, where appropriate, aggressive management of hypertension. Systems for diagnosis, proper treatment, and continuous surveillance of these patients need to be in place in primary and secondary healthcare setups. Furthermore, specially designed clinical trials are required to determine the finest approaches to treat hypertension in patients of rheumatoid arthritis.5-8 References Baharvand-Ahmadi B, Bahmani M, Tajeddini P, Rafieian-Kopaei M, Naghdi N.

Currently, the list of microorganisms that have a possible connection with the development of rheumatoid arthritis continues to be updated. The role of not only traditional pathogens, but also representatives of conditionally pathogenic microflora is being actively studied. A number of domestic and foreign works demonstrate a high degree of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with rheumatic diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis.The aim of the present study is to identify the frequency of detection of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and in adult residents of the city of Tula.Material and methods. The study included 3288 residents of Tula who do not have rheumatic diseases, and 119 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. To detect the infection, FEGDS was performed according to the generally accepted method with the taking of biopsies of the mucous membrane of the antrum and the stomach body, followed by verification of Helicobacter pylori using the Helpil-test test system.Results. According to the results of the data on the infection rate of residents of Tula without rheumatic diseases (n=3288), the largest percentage of infected (78.8%) was detected by an invasive method – express diagnosis of urease activity of the biopsy. The detection rate using a respiratory ammonia test and serological method was lower and amounted to 51.1 and 49.3%, respectively. In total, H. pylori was detected in 1692 people, which was 51.46%. Among patients with rheumatoid arthritis, Helicobacter pylori infection was 81.5%. Signs of damage to the mucous membrane of the upper gastrointestinal tract were often detected: superficial and subatrophic gastritis, single erosions.Conclusions. 1. Based on the study, it was found that the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori in patients with rheumatoid arthritis is at a fairly high level, not significantly different from that in residents without rheumatic diseases, when examined by an invasive method – express diagnosis of urease activity of the biopsy (81.5% and 78.8%, respectively). 2. Among patients with rheumatoid arthritis, there was a tendency to increase the frequency of infection with age and peak values in older age groups (r=0.37; p<0.05). 3. The frequency of detection of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract in infected and uninfected Helicobacter pylori patients with rheumatoid arthritis significantly differed (42.2 and 13.6%) (p=0.03). Key words: Tula population, rheumatoid arthritis, Helicobacter pylori infection>˂ 0.05). 3. The frequency of detection of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract in infected and uninfected Helicobacter pylori patients with rheumatoid arthritis significantly differed (42.2 and 13.6%) (p=0.03).

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common autoimmune inflammatory arthritis in adults. Pharmacological treatment is quite effective to overcome it, but in some cases, especially in elderly RA sufferers, pharmacological treatment such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids and DMARD (Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs) have an impact on drug side effects, namely gastrointestinal disorders that cause toxic effects on liver and kidney. The developed natural medicine treatment has been supported by several previous studies that provide anti-inflammatory benefits, namely, ginger (Zingiber Officinale Rosc.). Ginger (Zingiber Officinale Rosc.) The method used is descriptive. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of respondents who suffer from rheumathoid arthritic therapy with essential ginger oil and resisted active movement.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory rheumatic disease with unknown etiology characterized by symmetric, chronic and erosive arthritis (synovitis) of the peripheral joints and systemic inflammatory involvement of the viscera. Lung pathology, including interstitial lung disease, is one of the common extra-articular manifestations at the гheumatoid arthritis. The leading diagnosis method of interstitial lung disease is a computed tomography high resolution, which allows to identifying interstitial lung changes in 70% of the cases. The study of prognosis in patients with rheumatoid arthritis interstitial lung disease has been the subject of several studies in the past decade. In most studies it was stated that the average life expectancy from diagnosis is around 3 years. This work is devoted to study of interstitial lung disease as one of the most frequent extra-articular ma-nifestations of rheumatoid arthritis. The authors defined the significance of computed tomography high resolu-tion for the diagnosis of pulmonary interstitial lung changes at rheumatoid arthritis. They give comparative clini-cal and immunological, instrumental characteristics of rheumatoid arthritis patients with interstitial lung disease and without it. The role of smoking and positivity of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) according to antibodies are determined as risk factors of interstitial lung disease development in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The interrelation of the X-ray tomography symptom of interstitial lung disease "ground glass opacity" with the activity and duration of rheumatoid arthritis is revealed. "Ground glass opacity" symptom is associated with high index of DAS28 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis with interstitial lung disease.

Rheumatic diseases are not fatal, but they result in shorter life expectancy of the patients suffering from them. This applies to all inflammatory rheumatic diseases, especially rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Rheumatic diseases, in which most of all the joint inflammatory process develops with progressive joint damage, are the cause of patients’ disability, prevent patients from working and everyday functioning, also at home, and affect all aspects of social life. The objective of rehabilitation in RA is to relieve pain, reduce or inhibit inflammation, and maintain the proper functioning of the locomotor system while slowing down or ceasing structural lesions in the joints.

Abstract The growth of synovial fibroblast-like cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and rats with streptococcal cell wall (SCW)-induced arthritis in vitro under anchorage-independent conditions is inhibited by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). Because this growth factor is present in rheumatoid synovial fluids, we studied whether this cytokine might be secreted by cells in rheumatoid synovial tissue. We show that synovial tissues from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, and rats with SCW-induced arthritis, contain TGF-beta-1 mRNA. TGF-beta, predominantly type 1, was spontaneously secreted in vitro by synovial tissue explants and synovial fibroblast-like cells. In addition, TGF-beta could be detected immunohistochemically in cells throughout rheumatoid and SCW-induced arthritic rat synovial tissues. Finally, exogenous TGF-beta induced collagen and inhibited collagenase mRNA levels by cultured synoviocytes. These data support an autocrine role for TGF-beta in the regulation of synoviocytes in rheumatoid arthritis and, in light of its demonstrated effects on the immune system, suggest that TGF-beta might also have important paracrine effects on infiltrating inflammatory cells.

Abstract PI3Kδ plays an essential role in antigen-receptor signaling, proliferation, activation and function of lymphocytes. Mice deficient in PI3Kδ activity show substantial reduction in immunoglobulin levels, partial impairment in chemoattractant-induced neutrophil migration as well as defects in signaling and function of macrophages. Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), a commonly used model for studying antirheumatic drugs, requires participation of both B and T cells to initiate disease and reproduces many of the pathogenic mechanisms detected in human rheumatoid arthritis. In this study, we have investigated the ability of IC87114, a selective PI3Kδ inhibitor, to reverse the rheumatoid arthritic like state in the CIA model of arthritis. Clinical arthritis was initiated by immunizing animals with collagen followed by a booster dose on day 7. IC87114 or control treatment was initiated when at least one hind paw was significantly inflamed and continued for an 18-day treatment course. IC87114-treatment of arthritic rats reduced the progression and severity of clinical arthritis that was evident within 6 days after initiation of therapy. IC87114-treatment significantly reduced the level of anti-collagen antibodies. Arthritic rats treated with IC87114 had significantly lower radiographic scores compared with control, indicating that treatment with IC87114 was effective in protecting bone integrity. Histopathological evaluation demonstrated that IC87114 was effective in reducing the histological changes induced by rheumatoid arthritis. The effect of IC87114-treatment on these parameters together suggests a therapeutic potential for PI3Kδ-selective compounds to ameliorate rheumatoid arthritis.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractIn the pathogenesis of several rheumatic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, alterations in osteoblast growth, differentiation and activity play a role. In particular, in rheumatoid arthritis bone homeostasis is perturbed: in addition to stimulating the pathologic bone resorption process performed by osteoclasts in course of rheumatoid arthritis, proinflammatory cytokines (such as Tumor Necrosis factor-α, Interleukin-1) can also inhibit osteoblast differentiation and function, resulting in net bone loss. Mouse models of rheumatoid arthritis showed that complete resolution of inflammation (with maximal reduction in the expression of pro-inflammatory factors) is crucial for bone healing, performed by osteoblasts activity. In fact, abnormal activity of factors and systems involved in osteoblast function in these patients has been described. A better understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms involved in osteoblast dysregulation could contribute to explain the generalized and focal articular bone loss found in rheumatoid arthritis. Nevertheless, these aspects have not been frequently and directly evaluated in studies. This review article is focused on analysis of the current knowledge about the role of osteoblast dysregulation occurring in rheumatoid arthritis: a better knowledge of these mechanisms could contribute to the realization of new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate levels of physical activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia and to compare the results with both healthy subjects and each other. Methods: A group of 50 rheumatoid arthritis patients, 95 osteoarthritis patients, 82 fibromyalgia patients and 110 healthy subjects were included in this study. Physical activity levels were assessed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Results: There were significant differences in walking and total physical activity scores in IPAQ between the rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis (OA), fibromyalgia (FMS) patients and the control group (p<0.05). 36.6% of the fibromyalgia group, 28.4% of the osteoarthritis group, 38% of the rheumatoid arthritis group and 22.7% of the healthy subjects were found to be inactive. 45.1% of the fibromyalgia group, 42.1% of the osteoarthritis group, 46% of the rheumatoid arthritis group and 36.4% of the healthy subjects were found to be insufficiently active. Conclusion: As a result, when compared to healthy people, physical activity levels were significantly decreased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia. The decreases in the physical activity levels were clearer in patients with rheumatoid arthritis than in patients with osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia. Recommending regular physical activity should be integral to rheumatic disease management and walking offers a potentially accessible, inexpensive, and acceptable physical activity intervention.

Rheumatoid arthritis has been treated with Hyptis suaveolens (L) poit. seeds. There has been no pharmaceutical assessment for rheumatoid arthritis. A study aims to assess the anti-arthritic properties of aqueous extract of Hyptis suaveolens (L) poit… seeds (AEHS). Standard techniques were used for phytochemical analysis. Tested anti-arthritic potential in-vitro (25-800µg/ml egg albumin) and in vivo (200 and 400 mg/kg egg albumin induced arthritic model). Chemicals such alkaloids, sugars, flavonoids, phenols, and terpenoids were found. Results showed 75% reduction of protein denaturation at 800µg/ml in-vitro. According to the Egg albumin model, AEHS considerably (P < 0.0001) inhibits changes in paw volume, joint diameter, and body weight. It also improves hematological, biochemical, and histopathological levels. The findings confirm the traditional usage of Hyptis suaveolens(L)poit. seeds to treat rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract Objective We aimed to determine whether calprotectin and α-defensins could discriminate septic from other inflammatory arthritides. Methods Synovial fluids with a predominance of neutrophils from patients with septic arthritis, pseudogout and RA were prospectively collected. Neutrophil-related proteins calprotectin and human neutrophil α-defensins levels were assessed in synovial fluids. Demographic parameters and biomarkers with P-value ⩽0.05 for differentiating septic from non-septic arthritis were included in a multivariable model. Multivariable logistic regression with stepwise selection was performed to build the final combined model. Results A total of 74 patients were included: septic arthritis (n = 26), pseudogout (n = 28) and RA (n = 20). Patients with septic arthritis were more likely to be male and young, and to display higher synovial neutrophil count. Calprotectin was significantly increased in patients with septic arthritis. The multivariable model included calprotectin, synovial fluid neutrophil count and gender. Calprotectin was the only biomarker that discriminated septic arthritis from non-septic inflammatory arthritides, with 76% sensitivity, 94% specificity and a positive likelihood ratio = 12.2 at the threshold for calprotectin of 150 mg/l. Conclusion Synovial fluid calprotectin is a relevant biomarker to discriminate septic arthritis from other inflammatory arthritides. This biomarker should be tested in an independent cohort.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Rheumatoid cachexia is associated with rheumatoid arthritis and it increases mortality and morbidity. Adjuvant-induced arthritis is an experimental model of rheumatoid arthritis that causes anorexia and muscle wasting. α-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) has anti-inflammatory actions, and it is able to decrease inflammation in several inflammatory diseases including experimental arthritis. In this study we tested whether systemic α-MSH treatment is able to ameliorate cachexia in arthritic rats. On day 8 after adjuvant injection control and arthritic rats were treated with α-MSH (50 μg/rat ip) twice a day, until day 16 when all rats were euthanized. Arthritis decreased food intake, but it increased hypothalamic expression of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and Agouti-related peptides (AgRP) as well as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA. In arthritic rats, α-MSH decreased the external signs of arthritis and increased food intake ( P < 0.01). In addition, α-MSH decreased hypothalamic expression of IL-1β, COX-2, proopiomelanocortin, and prohormone-converting (PC) enzymes PC1/3 and PC2 mRNA in arthritic rats. In control rats, α-MSH did not modify food intake or hypothalamic expression of aforementioned mRNA. α-MSH prevented arthritis-induced increase in gastrocnemius COX-2, muscle-specific RING-finger protein-1 (MuRF1), and atrogin-1 expression, and it increased fast myofiber size. In conclusion our data show that in arthritic rats peripheral α-MSH treatment has an anti-cachectic action increasing food intake and decreasing muscle wasting.

The objective of the study – identify early preclinical signs of myocardial dysfunction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.Material and methods. We examined 142 people with verified rheumatic diseases. All patients were divided into 2 groups. The first group consisted of patients with rheumatoid arthritis – 95 people. The second group – patients with ankylosing spondylitis – 47 people. The control group included 70 practically healthy individuals. In addition to standard diagnostic tests, all patients underwent tissue dopplerography of the heart using the GE Vivid E9 ultrasound device using the two-dimensional deformation technique (speckle tracking) to assess the deformation and rate of myocardial deformation, as well as determining the level of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in the blood serum.Results. Among patients with rheumatoid arthritis, diastolic dysfunction of both the left ventricle and both ventricles was more common than in the control group. The same pattern was observed in the group with ankylosing spondylitis. The calculation of the relative risk showed that the presence of rheumatoid arthritis in 4,42 times increases the risk of diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle in comparison with practically healthy people (CI 1,6–12,2). In individuals with rheumatoid arthritis also results in a deterioration of systolic function of both ventricles. The level of matrix metalloproteinase metalloproteinase-9 was highest and most often increased in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Among patients with rheumatoid arthritis, the average level of metalloproteinase-9 was low, but the incidence was higher than in the control group. The obtained results indicate that in these rheumatic diseases there is a marked degradation of the extracellular matrix components.Conclusion. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis are characterized by a deterioration in the diastolic function of the left ventricle or both ventricles simultaneously, which is accompanied by an increase in the level of metalloproteinase-9.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a crippling disease that is often associated with severe pain, suffering, and diminished function, thereby detracting from an optimal quality of life. Over the past decade a greater appreciation of the pathophysiology of rheumatoid arthritis has been gained. In the past “decade of pain research,” biologic agents which may modify rheumatoid arthritis have emerged as potent therapeutic antirheumatic drugs. Biologic agents include 5 tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitors (etanercept, infliximab, adalimumab, golimumab, certolizumab pegol), interleukin-1 blockers (anakinra), monocloncal antibodies against B cells (rituximab), T cell costimulation blocker (abatacept), and interleukin-6 inhibitors (tocilizumab). Currently, utilizing therapy aimed at targeting various abnormalities of rheumatoid arthritis may be possible. It appears that the combined use of etanercept and methotrexate may improve the imbalance of Th1/Th2 and Th17/regulatory T cells (Treg) (and related cytokines) often seen in rheumatoid arthritis. Furthermore, this improvement in Tcell ratios/cytokines is also associated with improvement in clinical indicators of rheumatoid arthritis severity. Although rheumatologists are generally the specialists “called on” to manage complex patients with rheumatoid arthritis, pain specialists may be asked to join interdisciplinary teams managing patients with advanced refractory rheumatoid arthritis with severe pain since one of the most common and debilitating symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis is pain. Thus, pain specialists should have some appreciation of the current thoughts regarding rheumatoid arthritis pathophysiology and treatment. This narrative review of rheumatoid arthritis is intended to familiarize the interventional pain specialist with current concepts surrounding rheumatoid arthritis. Key words: Rheumatoid Arthritis, Pain, DMARDs, biological agengs, TNF inhibitors

The pediatrician frequently encounters children and adolescents with musculoskeletal complaints that raise the possibility of rheumatic disease. The purposes of this article are: to review an approach to the evaluation of "joint" symptoms and to review the pharmacology, use, and adverse effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. RHEUMATOLOGIC HISTORY Systematic collection of the historical details is fundamental in the evaluation of "joint" complaints (Table 1). Age and Sex The child's age and sex provide initial clues. For example, suspicion that a young girl (less than 5 years of age) with knee swelling might have monoarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is heightened simply because of her age and sex. (At onset of their disease, almost 20% of all patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis are young girls with pauciarthritis, most commonly involving the knee.) Suspicion that an older boy (10 years of age or older) with axioskeletal complaints might have an enthesopathy syndrome is increased, in part, because of his age and sex. of the age and sex predilections of various rheumatic conditions is, therefore, helpful. Chief Complaint The chief complaint is often directive. For example, the complaint "his knees hurt every night" or "his legs hurt at night" is not characteristic of children who have juvenile rheumatoid arthritis or other well-defined inflammatory arthritides.

Aim of the study was to clarify the body composition in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis before starting therapy with synthetic basic anti-inflammatory drugs, genetically engineered biological drugs and glucocorticoids using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and to assess the effect of inflammation and metabolic syndrome on body composition.Material and methods. The study included 37 patients (31 women and 6 men) with early rheumatoid arthritis. The control group consisted of 19 healthy donors without rheumatic diseases. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis and the control group were measured by waist size, height and weight, and body mass index was calculated. Body composition was determined by means of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry using the “Whole Body” program on the HOLOGIC device (USA). The presence of metabolic syndrome was assessed according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF).Results. Patients with early rheumatoid arthritis had less lean tissue mass, which was negatively correlated with inflammatory markers (ESR and C-reactive protein levels). Overweight and obesity were diagnosed in 24% and 27% of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis, respectively. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis and metabolic syndrome had a higher body weight, body mass index, waist size, and adipose tissue mass than patients without metabolic syndrome. With the help of instrumental methods, it is shown that in rheumatoid arthritis there is a redistribution of fat mass in the body, its predominant accumulation in the trunk area and a parallel decrease in the volume of muscle tissue.Conclusion. Rheumatoid inflammation and metabolic syndrome affect body composition of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis before the start of antirheumatic therapy.
