Pathogenesis of gout: Exploring more therapeutic target
AbstractGout is a chronic metabolic and immune disease, and its specific pathogenesis is still unclear. When the serum uric acid exceeds its saturation in the blood or tissue fluid, it is converted to monosodium urate crystals, which lead to acute arthritis of varying degrees, urinary stones, or irreversible peripheral joint damage, and in severe cases, impairment of vital organ function. Gout flare is a clinically significant state of acute inflammation in gout. The current treatment is mostly anti-inflammatory analgesics, which have numerous side effects with limited treatment methods. Gout pathogenesis involves many asp...

Construct validity, reliability, and threshold value for treatment goals of the Thai version of the 12 ‐item Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease Questionnaire for patients with psoriatic arthritis
ConclusionsThe Thai-PsAID is a valid, reliable, and feasible tool for measuring PsA prognosis. A cutoff of 2.7 accurately discriminates MDA and PASS and indicates no need for medication escalation. The Thai-PsAID may be used as a standalone measure. (Source: International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases)

Routine biomarker profile for the prediction of clinical phenotypes of adult ‐onset Still's disease using unsupervised clustering algorithm
ConclusionThe study demonstrates the potential of integrating traditional biomarkers with unsupervised clustering algorithms in understanding the heterogeneity of AoSD. These findings suggest new avenues for developing personalized treatment strategies, though further validation in larger, prospective studies is necessary.

Association between genetically proxied PCSK9 inhibition and systemic lupus erythematosus risk: A mendelian randomization study
ConclusionsThis Mendelian randomization study showed that PCSK9 was associated with SLE pathogenesis, and its inhibition was associated with a reduced risk of SLE. This study has offered a prospective therapeutic avenue for intervening in the progression of SLE by inhibiting PCSK9 levels. (Source: International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases)

Risk factors for initial and recurrent severe infections in first hospitalized patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: A retrospective study of a Chinese cohort
ConclusionIn this cohort of SLE, patients with severe infection had a higher risk of reinfection, and low immunoglobulin, anti-dsDNA antibody positivity, and cyclophosphamide use were independent risk factors for recurrent severe infection. (Source: International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases)

A bibliometric analysis of miRNAs in rheumatoid arthritis from 2001 to 2022: Research hotspots and trends
ConclusionsIn the past two decades, extensive and continuous research has been conducted to investigate the role of miRNAs in RA, and miRNAs are widely recognized in the pathogenesis of RA. Related research has mainly focused on miR-146a and miR-155 that have shown promising results as key factors in RA experimental models. Focusing on clinical applications and translational research may be the future research direction and hotspot based on molecular biology basic research and mechanism exploration.
