Highly expressed long non ‐coding RNA SNHG14 activated MSU‐induced inflammatory response in acute gout arthritis through targeting miR‐223‐3p
ConclusionIn the AGA cell model, lncRNA SNHG14, as an miR-223-3p sponge, induces a cellular inflammatory response by controlling the level of miR-223-3p, so aggravating the disease progress of AGA. (Source: International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases)

Successful treatment of anti ‐PTX3 positive seronegative rheumatoid arthritis with upadacitinib
AbstractSeronegative rheumatoid arthritis (SNRA) can be a rapid-progressing and highly disabling disease. Anti-PTX3 autoantibody may be a potential biomarker in SNRA diagnosis. SNRA patients could respond well to upadacitinib. (Source: International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases)

Synovial ‐fluid‐derived microparticles express vimentin and GRP78 in their surface and exhibit an in vitro stimulatory effect on fibroblast‐like synoviocytes in rheumatoid arthritis
ConclusionsMicroparticles express vimentin and GRP78 on their surface and stimulate synoviocytes to produce inflammatory molecules, thus sustaining local inflammation in the synovium in RA. (Source: International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases)

SAPHO syndrome complicated by multiple venous thrombosis of left lower limb: A case report and literature review
AbstractSynovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is an uncommon clinical syndrome with the signs of skin problems and osteoarthropathy as its main features. The pathogenesis of SAPHO syndrome has not been fully elucidated, and multiple complications may be present, including thrombosis. A 39-year-old male patient was diagnosed with SAPHO syndrome, complicated by multiple venous thrombosis of the left lower limb. We conducted a brief review of the current available literature on thrombosis in patients with SAPHO syndrome and speculated that the presence of lower extremity thrombosis in this p...

The burden of rheumatoid arthritis and low back pain in North Africa and Middle East from 1990 to 2019: Results from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
ConclusionRA still imposes a significant burden in the NAME region as the burden measures have increased from 1990 to 2019. On the other hand, regarding LBP, a decreasing pattern was observed. Differences among the countries and between ages and genders can have implications, and the results of this study may be helpful for policy-makers in the NAME countries.

Observational longitudinal study to assess the outcome of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myositis using validated tools
ConclusionsIIM patients had good outcomes with the majority achieving remission and near-complete muscle recovery. However, the patients presenting late to the rheumatologists were more likely to have smoldering disease, more immunosuppressive medicines, and greater accumulated damage.
