Quantitative ultrasound and bone mineral density: discriminatory ability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and controls with and without vertebral deformities.
BACKGROUND Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) is a reliable tool for discriminating between subjects with and without vertebral deformities in postmenopausal osteoporosis. Less is known about osteoporosis caused by inflammatory diseases or corticosteroid use. OBJECTIVES (1). To compare in patients with rheumatoid arthritis the ability of QUS and dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) to discrimina...

متن کاملOccipitosacral Fusion for Multiple Vertebral Fractures with Kyphotic Deformity in a Patient with Mutilating Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Case Report.
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures are well-known complications of rheumatoid arthritis. The management of multiple vertebral fractures with kyphotic deformity is controversial. We present a case of a patient with mutilating rheumatoid arthritis who had multiple vertebral fractures with kyphotic deformity after occipitothoracic fusion for rheumatoid cervical disorder. Occipitosacral fusion was ef...
متن کاملCorrelation between anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA), rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides antibodies (Anti-CCP) and percentage and type of pulmonary involvement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, Booali Hospital Tehran (2016-2
Background: Controlling the pulmonary involvement, as one of the most common extra-articular consequences in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), can improve the life quality and survival rate of patients. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between disease-related inflammatory factors and the severity and type of lung involvement in patients, which is a practical step toward early detection and...
