Intranasal calcitonin for the prevention of bone erosion and bone loss in rheumatoid arthritis.
The effect of intranasal salmon calcitonin on pain, erosion progression, and bone loss in 40 women with rheumatoid arthritis was investigated. The study design was double blind, placebo controlled for the first four months and open for the next 36 months, allowing for cross over to active drug treatment or to the control group. Morning stiffness was reduced in the group treated with salmon calc...
متن کاملComparing 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 کاملBone mineral density loss in postmenopausal onset rheumatoid arthritis is not greater than premenopausal onset disease
Background: Postmenopausal onset rheumatoid arthritis (post-RA) is expected to have greater bone mineral density (BMD) loss than premenopauasal onset (pre-RA) due to estrogen deficiency and aging. This study aimed to compare the BMD status of the two RA groups with age-matched non-RA controls. Methods: The patients with RA on follow-up examination were stratified according to age of onset. ...

متن کاملThe impact of rheumatoid factor and ACPA on bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis.
In their letter, Van Steenbergen and colleagues present data on the radiographic progression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients stratified for anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) and rheumatoid factors (RFs) in two different patient cohorts. They show that the presence of ACPA is associated with a more pronounced progression of structural damage when scoring conventional radiographs b...
