Comparing bone mineral density in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis
Background: Changes in patients’ bone mineral density (BMD) is one of the problems in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, which can be due to the use of corticosteroid drugs to reduce patients' symptoms or due to the aging process in patients. In this study, we decided to compare BMD in patients with psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: This study as a cross-sectional descrip...
متن کاملJuvenile psoriatic arthritis and acquired sensorineural hearing loss in a teenager: is there an association?
Autoimmune inner ear disease is a cause of sensorineural hearing loss, first described in 1979 by McCabe. The occurrence during rheumatic diseases is already documented in adults, but to our knowledge, this evidence is still lacking in children. A 13-yr-old girl affected by juvenile psoriatic arthritis, treated with etanercept, developed a bilateral and asymmetric sensorineural deafness. The pa...
متن کاملPsoriatic arthritis is associated with bone loss of the metacarpals
BACKGROUND BoneXpert (BX) is a newly developed medical device based on digital X-ray radiogrammetry to measure human cortical bone thickness. The aim of this study was to quantify cortical bone loss of the metacarpals in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and compare these findings with other radiological scoring methods. METHODS The study includes 104 patients with verified PsA. The BX ...
متن کاملPsoriatic Arthritis.
Psoriatic arthritis occurs in 5 - 42% of patients with psoriasis. It is an inflammatory arthritis distinct from rheumatoid, being usually sero-negative, asymmetrical and often affecting the spine, sacro-iliac and distal interphalangeal joints. It runs a very variable course, from a mild non-destructive disease to a severe rapidly progressive erosive arthropathy, producing an 'arthritis mutilans...
متن کاملPsoriatic arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disease which develops in patients with psoriasis. It is characteristic that the rheumatoid factor in serum is absent. Etiology of the disease is still unclear but a number of genetic associations have been identified. Inheritance of the disease is multilevel and the role of environmental factors is emphasized. Immunology of PsA is also ...
