To determine the contribution of fibromyalgia (FM) to the subjective components of the Disease Activity Score 28-joints (DAS28) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to analyse the discriminatory performance of the derived DAS28 patient-reported components (DAS28-P) to identify patients...
Rheumatoid arthritisis inflammation of the joint lining caused by the immune system attacking these tissues (autoimmune disorder). The small joints of the hands and feet are more commonly affected. The exact cause is unknown but it appears to be linked to genetic factors and may be triggered by...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is autoimmune inflammatory arthritis of unknown etiology. The involvement of distal interphalangeal joint in RA is rare and review of literature does not reveal much about inflammatory arthritis of distal interphalangeal joint in RA with joint destruction. We report a case ...
Objective Infiltration of neutrophils into the joints plays an important role in bone erosion and articular destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Neutrophil trafficking during inflammation is a process that involves activation of chemotactic receptors. Recent findings suggest that changes in chemotactic ...

A series of patients with clinically early inflammatory joint disease due to rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and Reiter's syndrome were examined by plain film radiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The spin echo T1-weighted precontrast, T2-weighted, and, especially, T1-weighted ...
Insufficient apoptosis of inflammatory macrophages and osteoclasts (OCs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) joints contributes toward the persistent progression of joint inflammation and destruction. Here, we deliver celastrol (CEL) to selectively induce apopt
rest and upon movement, while with non-inflammatory causes ofathralgia, the pain may ease at rest and exacerbate upon movement. Stiffness of the joints should also be noted as it is often a sign of an inflammatory response and often eases with movement as is seen in rheumatoid arthritis. ...
