87 Patients with rheumatoid arthritis are more likely than age-matched controls to develop carpal tunnel syndrome and are more likely to develop carpal tunnel syndrome when they have hand flexor tenosynovitis.88,89 The carpal tunnel syndrome can improve with successful treatment of the arthritis or ...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the archetypal inflammatory arthritis. Inflammatory changes detectable by ultrasound (US) in RA include synovial effusion, synovial hypertrophy and increased vascularization. The main structural changes are bone erosions, cartilage damage and tendon tears. Joint cavity widening...
Musculoskeletal pains are sometimes misdiagnosed in some diseases, like rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis, erosive OA, etc. Secondary hyperparathyroidism was not considered a differential diagnosis for RA, despite the fact that it can cause arthralgia or arthritis. Also, fibromyalgia is a psychosomatic...

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, inflammatory joint condition characterized by overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. We aimed to assess TNF-α levels in both serum and synovial fluid in effusive knees in RA patients and find out if synovial fluid levels correlate with ultrasound (US...
