1. Juvenile chronic arthritis : a population based study on epidemiology, natural history and outcome
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Rho-GTPases in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Sammanfattning : The success of alleviating rheumatoid arthritis (RA) symptoms is complicated by both heterogeneity of the disease and lack of predictive markers to guide treatment options. Deregulated Rho-GTPases, a family of hydrolase enzymes catalyzing guanosine triphospate (GTP) to guanosine diphospate (GDP), have a detrimental role in many diseases including RA. LÄS MER
3. Aspects on inflammation and cardiovascular comorbidity in rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : There is an increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) comorbidity among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with premature atherosclerosis, and a higher incidence of CV events, compared with the general population. Disease related factors add to the CV risk, and interact with the traditional CV risk factors. LÄS MER
4. B cell subpopulations in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : B cell depleting therapy has proven to be an effective treatment in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against citrullinated proteins (ACPA) and the Fc portion of IgG (rheumatoid factor, RF). This demonstrates the vital role B cells play in the disease. LÄS MER
5. Cardiovascular morbidity and metabolic signature in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : Background and objectives: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease with excess risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The treatment of RA by anti-inflammatory drugs has dramatically been improved over the resent decades. LÄS MER
