Risk factors of mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease: a single-centre prospective cohort study
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease that frequently accompanies extra-articular manifestations such as rheumatoid nodules; vasculitis; and pulmonary, cardiovascular, and haematological diseases [1, 2]. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) was first reported in 1984 [3] and is a serious complication in patients with RA that leads to increased mortality [4, 5]. Although... Lire la suite

Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of gouty arthritis in the general population aged > 30
Gouty arthritis is a chronic disease characterized by recurrent attacks of severe joint pain and swelling (gout flare) due to an inflammatory reaction directed against monosodium urate (MSU) crystals [1–4]. When gout is improperly managed, chronic joint inflammation may develop, as well as tophi, which can damage bone and cartilage permanently [1–4]. The deposition of MSU in the joint cavity...

Detection Ewingella americana from a patient with Andersson lesion in ankylosing spondylitis by metagenomic next-generation sequencing test: a case report...
Ankylosing spondylitis mainly affects the sacroiliac joint and spine, with clinical manifestations characterized by pain, lack of segmental movement, and spinal stiffness, and finally ends up with osteopenia and vulnerability to trauma [1, 2]. It was first reported by Anderson in 1937 that as AS lesions develop over the long term, non-invasive vertebral and intervertebral disc destructive lesions may... Lire la suite

Cutibacterium acnes biofilm formation is influenced by bone microenvironment, implant surfaces and bacterial internalization
The constant evolution of biomaterials dedicated to prosthesis and 3D printing scaffolds responds to the increase in demand for implants of bone and joint prostheses due to population aging. However, arthroplasty procedures still face the additional risk factor of infection [1]. Prosthesis joint infections (PJI) occurs in 1–2% of primary arthroplasties and have become a major clinical issue [2].... Lire la suite
