Use and perceptions of nutrition information resources in systemic sclerosis: a Scleroderma Patient-centred Intervention Network (SPIN) cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Respondents used many different diet and nutrition information resources. They preferred resources from conventional health care providers, affiliated with credible institutions (e.g., SSc patient organisations), or with personal connections (e.g., SSc support groups). Future research should address the limited evidence base on nutrition in SSc and assess the quality of information provided by different information resources.PMID:38573100 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/dt5hae (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)

Systemic lupus erythematosus: one year in review 2024
Clin Exp Rheumatol. 2024 Mar;42(3):583-592. doi: 10.55563/clinexprheumatol/mnvmvo. Epub 2024 Mar 27.ABSTRACTSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is classically regarded as the landmark of systemic autoimmune diseases, characterised by protean, multi-systemic manifestations and a highly variable clinical course.Over the last years, both clinical and translational clinical research efforts led to significant steps forward in management and treatment of SLE. However, numerous aspects of SLE, from pathogenesis to treatment, still remain challenging, and several unmet needs persist for both patients and physicians. Following the ...

Anti-SSA Ro52 and anti-Ro60 autoantibodies: association with clinical phenotypes
CONCLUSIONS: Anti-Ro52+ antibody alone is frequently found in patients with non-rheumatic diseases. In addition, anti-Ro52+ antibody is also prevalent in patients with CTD and associated with clinical phenotypes that are different from anti-Ro60+ antibody.PMID:38530658 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/puxml7 (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)

Detection of IgE-autoantibodies to nuclear antigens in patients with systemic sclerosis and analysis of their clinical relevance
CONCLUSIONS: IgE-autoantibodies against CENP-A/B and topo-I occur in SSc underlining the concept that SSc may be a T helper cell type 2 mediated disease. IgE-anti-CENP-A-antibodies correlated with disease activity, but this has to be confirmed in larger studies.PMID:38530662 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/s3pvx0 (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)

Effectiveness of tofacitinib monotherapy for patients with IgG4-RD or idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis
CONCLUSIONS: Tofacitinib is a potentially effective treatment for IgG4-RD and IRF and it is reasonable to conduct clinical trial to validate its efficacy. The JAKs were expressed in the inflammatory lesions of IgG4-RD and IRF and they may share a common pathogenesis pathway that is independent of IgG4 production.PMID:38530663 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/61mt03 (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)

Factors associated of long-term retention rate of Janus kinase inhibitors in a multi-failure rheumatoid arthritis population
CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, our study supports the clinical effectiveness of JAKi in RA, even in the multi-failure subgroup of patients, where the risk/benefit ratio overcomes the safety risk. The presence of ACPA and the concurrent use of + cs-DMARD may increase the survival on JAKi in the long term.PMID:38530664 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/za0hpu (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)

JAK inhibitors in the treatment of adult patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: a retrospective monocentric experience
CONCLUSIONS: JAKi may represent an effective and safe treatment option for adult JIA patients with low/moderate disease activity, particularly in case of oligoarticular involvement.PMID:38530666 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/4yoas8 (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)

Prevalence of remission in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in daily clinical practice: long-term data from a tertiary care centre
CONCLUSIONS: Most patients achieved remission at least once within the observation period and almost 50% of patients also achieved SR. This study shows that the target of achieving remission should be constantly pursued, as we were able to show that even in the fourth year of treatment, patients still achieved remission.PMID:38530668 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/66rnqb (Source: Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology)
