Joint Protection Education for Children with Arthritis: Can Handouts Replace Professional Instructionarthritishilar adenopathyerythema nodosum complexObjective. To localize the epitope(s) bound by anti-PM-Scl antibodies in the N-terminal half of the 100-kd protein, the major antigen of the PM-Scl ...
A Step Towards Improved Quality of Life For many individuals suffering from knee arthritis, daily activities can become challenging. Arthrosamid offers hope for a more active and pain-free lifestyle. This treatment is particularly beneficial for those seeking an...
OTs will have the opportunity to practice teaching techniques, joint protection methods and hand exercises. Further details of the programme will be available from the Principal Investigator (KD). Interventions There will be four treatment arms to the study; leaflet and advice; joint protection delive...
The role of novel identified associations, such as IL-23R, will have to be explored, especially as many of the asso- ciated single-nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with a protection against disease. In addition, the potential interaction between HLA-B27, IL-23R polymorphisms, and perhaps...
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disorder which affects the multiple joints especially small joints in hands and feet of both the sides of the body. Even though modern imaging techniques such as MRI, PET, SPECT, color Doppler ultrasound was used to quantify the inflammatory conditions ...
Having said that, the absence of stage Pat:4 animals in all Neolithic and modern wild populations studied as well as in feral Soay sheep is indicative of the fact that animals with Pat:4 conditions could only survive under the protection of humans, since at this advanced stage of the ...
