Cardiovascular Safety of Tocilizumab versus Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitors in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis – a Multi‐database Cohort Study
Conclusion: This multi‐database population‐based cohort study found no evidence of an increased CV risk among RA patients who switched from a different biologic drug or tofacitinib to TCZ versus to a TNFi. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Herpes Zoster and the Risk of Stroke in Patients With Autoimmune Diseases
ConclusionIn patients with autoimmune diseases, incident HZ was associated with as much as a 2‐fold increased risk of stroke in the subsequent few months. These data underscore the urgency of developing strategies for reducing the risk of varicella‐zoster virus.

Risk of Myocardial Infarction and Stroke in Patients With Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (Wegener's): A Population ‐Based Study
ConclusionPatients with GPA have a significantly increased risk of MI and a non–statistically significant trend toward an increased risk of ischemic stroke. Monitoring for this complication and vigilance in modifying risk factors are particularly warranted in this patient population, especially early after the diagnosis of GPA.

Herpes Zoster and the Risk for Stroke in Patients with Autoimmune Diseases
Conclusion: In patients with autoimmune diseases, incident HZ was associated with up to a two‐fold increased risk for stroke in the subsequent few months. These data provide urgency for developing strategies to reduce the risk of VZV. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Trends in Hospitalizations Due to Acute Coronary Syndromes and Stroke in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, 1996 To 2012
Conclusion: Increased awareness of the burden of CVD in patients with SLE has not yet translated into decreases in hospitalizations for acute myocardial infarction or stroke. This may be due to barriers in implementation of CVD risk factor modification, or SLE‐specific risks that have not yet been identified or effectively targeted. This article is protected by copyright.

Association Between Ischemic Stroke and Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitor Therapy in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis
ConclusionExposure to TNFi does not appear to influence the occurrence of ischemic stroke in the medium term in patients with RA. The impact on mortality after ischemic stroke remains inconclusive.

How hand osteoarthritis, comorbidity and pain interact to determine functional limitation in older people: Observations from the eposa study
Conclusions. Study results have demonstrated that although comorbidity was decidedly and independently associated with hand functional limitation, it has no effect on the hand OA‐physical function relationship. Hand OA was found to be associated with self‐reported as well as with performance‐based physical function impairment; the association was found to be partially mediated by pain, which reduces its impact.

Rheumatoid Arthritis, Anti–Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Positivity, and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in the Women's Health Initiative
ConclusionAmong postmenopausal women, RA was associated with 1.5–2.5‐fold higher CVD risk. CVD risk was strongly associated with CVD risk factors, joint pain severity, and inflammation, but not with anti‐CCP positivity or RF positivity.
