Carbamylation/citrullination of IgG Fc in bronchiectasis, established RA with bronchiectasis and RA smokers: a potential risk factor for disease
Bronchiectasis (BR) and smoking are risk factors for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) development. The mechanisms by which smoking and BR trigger RA are unknown, but are associated with concurrent rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (anti-CCP) positivity. Anti-carbamylated protein antibodies (anti-CarP) have also been observed in BR patients and can be induced by smok...
متن کاملRA autoantibodies as predictors of rheumatoid arthritis in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis patients.
Two studies have investigated RF in bronchiectasis [5, 6] with no studies to date investigating anti-CCP. In our BRAC RA (Bronchiectasis, Asthma, Control, Rheumatoid Arthritis) study, a prospective, multicentre, case–control, observational study was conducted to determine the relationship between bronchiectasis and RF and anti-CCP. Recruitment was completed over 12 months using identical method...
متن کاملCardiovascular risk factor management in patients with RA compared to matched non-RA patients.

The majority of sufferers from bronchiectasis state that their symptoms began in childhood. There is good evidence for believing that the disease is usually of acquired origin, but in a few cases the presence of other developmental anomalies favours the view that there may also be a congenital factor. Sauerbruch (1934) considered bronchiectasis was due to mechanical crowding, particularly of th...
متن کاملOutcome of Cystic Fibrosis in Patients with Bronchiectasis
Introduction: Bronchiectasis is a common problem in children especially under 5 years. Early diagnosis of disease and its causes could be useful in early treatment and preventing probable complications. This study aimed at evaluating the cystic fibrosis (CF) in patients with bronchiectasis. Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 374 children with bronchiectasis were studied. The diagnosis was ma...
