Comparison between sodium aurothiomalate and auranofin in rheumatoid arthritis. Results of a two-year open randomized
Abstract:
We compared the effectiveness of Auranofin, and sodium aurothiomalate (SATM) given for 2 years to patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This was an open trial with randomized entry to 2 treatment groups of 60 patients each. Only 40% of patients completed 2 years of treatment but these showed significant improvement in their indices of disease activity. Adverse reactions were a more common reason for withdrawal from SATM than from Auranofin, while insufficient therapeutic response was more common with Auranofin. This study also shows that inefficacy, toxicity, complicating illnesses, and lack of compliance limit the beneficial outcome of long-term chrysotherapy.

Sodium Regulation
Sodium ions make up approximately 90% of extracellular cations, with a normal blood plasma concentration of 136–148 mEq/L. A decrease in blood volume and pressure triggers the release of renin from granular cells in the juxtaglomerular complex (JGC), primarily...
