Management of hepatitis B and C infections in rheumatologic disease
Publication date: December 2018Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, Volume 32, Issue 6Author(s): Jonathan TL. Cheah, John J. Faragon, Kristen M. MarksAbstractHepatitis B and C viruses present dual considerations in rheumatic disease as both etiologic factors and important comorbidities that must be assessed and addressed. This review summarizes the link between hepatitis B and arthritis and polyarteritis nodosa as well as hepatitis C and arthritis, Sicca syndrome and cryoglobulinemic vasculitis. Recent data pertaining to the antiviral management in these conditions, especially regarding the use of the di...

How to investigate: Early axial spondyloarthritis
Publication date: Available online 31 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Pedro D. Carvalho, Pedro M. MachadoAbstractAxial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the axial skeleton that encompasses radiographic and non-radiographic axSpA and that can lead to chronic pain, structural damage, disability, and loss of quality of life. Scientific advances, including the role of MRI assessment, have led to new diagnostic insights and the creation of a new set of classification criteria for axial and peripheral SpA. New criteria allow the identification of SpA patien...

Management of difficult osteoporosis
Publication date: Available online 25 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Linda A. RussellAbstractOsteoporosis and associated low-impact fractures are common. There is associated morbidity and mortality with low-impact fractures. It is critical to identify which patients would benefit from therapy. General treatment considerations are reviewed. Currently available treatment options are discussed. Certain patient populations pose challenges in the treatment of osteoporosis. An in-depth review of clinically challenging scenarios is presented: Treatment of patients with severe osteoporosi...

Suspected very early inflammatory rheumatic diseases in primary care
Publication date: Available online 24 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Louise Warburton, Samantha L. Hider, Christian D. Mallen, Ian C. ScottAbstractAs primary care clinicians are typically the first point of contact for patients with musculoskeletal problems, they are crucial to the early diagnosis and treatment of patients with an incident inflammatory arthritis, like rheumatoid arthritis. Current UK and international guidelines recognise this, recommending the prompt referral of patients with suspected persistent synovitis to secondary care. In England and Wales, this is advised ...

Suspected systemic rheumatic diseases in patients presenting with cytopenias
Publication date: Available online 22 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Dionysis Nikolopoulos, Christina Adamichou, George BertsiasAbstractCytopenias may herald or concur with the onset of various systemic rheumatic diseases. Accordingly, patients with reduced blood cell counts are often referred for possible underlying autoimmune disease. Initial evaluation aims to exclude nonrheumatic causes such as drug toxicity, infections, or hematological/myelopoiesis disorders. Patient interview and physical examination are critical to unravel features related to or suggestive of rheumatic dis...

Early large vessel systemic vasculitis in adults
Publication date: Available online 20 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Miguel A. González-Gay, Diana Prieto-Peña, Isabel Martínez-Rodríguez, Mónica Calderon-Goercke, Ignacio Banzo, Ricardo Blanco, Santos CastañedaAbstractGiant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common vasculitis in individuals older than 50 years in Western countries. In addition to the typical pattern of cranial ischemic manifestations, large vessel vasculitis (LVV) involvement has emerged as a common feature of GCA. Patients with predominant LVV manifestations differ from those with the cranial pattern. They a...

The prevalence and impact of comorbid fibromyalgia in inflammatory arthritis
Publication date: Available online 17 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Sizheng Steven Zhao, Stephen J. Duffield, Nicola J. GoodsonAbstractFibromyalgia (FM) is one of the most common conditions that rheumatologists encounter. It is characterised by chronic widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances and impaired cognition. The prevalence of comorbid FM among populations with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are considerably higher than among the general population, with pooled prevalence estimates of 18–24% in RA, 14–16% in...

Preclinical and early systemic lupus erythematosus
Publication date: Available online 12 July 2019Source: Best Practice & Research Clinical RheumatologyAuthor(s): Mariele Gatto, Francesca Saccon, Margherita Zen, Luca Iaccarino, Andrea DoriaAbstractThe challenge of early diagnosis and treatment is a timely issue in the management of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), as autoimmunity starts earlier than its clinical manifestations. Hence, growing efforts for stratification of patients according to the individual risk of developing specific clinical manifestations and/or predicting a better response to a given treatment have led to the proposal of several biomarkers, which r...
