概括
风湿性关节炎 (RA) 患者面临较高的缺血性和出血性中风风险. 血清阳性RA患者的中风风险高于血清阴性RA患者,这凸显了针对性合成疾病修饰性抗性药物 (tsDMARD) 的进一步研究的需要.
科学领域:
- 关节病学
- 神经学
- 流行病学
背景情况:
- 风湿性关节炎 (RA) 与中风风险增加有关,但血清状况和中风亚型的区别尚不清楚.
- 生物和向性合成修饰性抗风湿药物 (b/ tsDMARDs) 对RA患者中风风险的影响需要进一步调查.
研究的目的:
- 调查类风湿性关节炎 (RA) 与缺血性中风 (IS) 和出血性中风 (HS) 的风险之间的联系.
- 在血清阳性RA (SPRA) 和血清阴性RA (SNRA) 患者之间比较中风风险.
- 评估b/ tsDMARDs对RA患者中风风险的影响.
主要方法:
- 通过韩国国家医疗保险服务数据库进行全国性队列研究.
- 包括在2010年至2017年间诊断的45175名RA患者,没有先前的中风病史.
- 与135,525个匹配的非RA对照进行比较.
主要成果:
- 与对照组相比,RA患者的IS (aHR 1.47) 和HS (aHR 1.31) 风险显著增加.
- 与SNRA患者相比,SPRA患者的IS (aHR1. 56) 和HS (aHR1. 40) 的风险更高.
- 在使用生物DMARD (bDMARD) 和非使用者之间没有发现中风风险的显著差异;然而,在使用有针对性的合成DMARD (tsDMARD) 时,观察到降低风险的趋势 (aHR为0. 81).
结论:
- 风湿性关节炎患者的IS和HS风险显著增加.
- 与血清阴性RA相比,血清阳性RA与较高的中风风险有关.
- 需要进行进一步的研究,以探索 tsDMARDs 降低 RA 患者中风风险的潜力.

Rheumatic Heart Disease I: Introduction
38
Rheumatic heart disease or RHD is a chronic condition that results from rheumatic fever, causing permanent damage to the heart valves.Etiology and Risk FactorsIt primarily arises from rheumatic fever, an inflammatory disease that can develop after untreated or inadequately treated group A streptococcal (GAS) pharyngitis. Streptococcus spreads through direct contact with oral or respiratory secretions. While the bacteria are the causative agents, factors like malnutrition, overcrowding, poor...

Rheumatic Heart Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies
57
The key clinical manifestations of Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) include several distinct cardiac symptoms.Carditis, a hallmark of acute rheumatic fever, involves inflammation of the heart's endocardium, myocardium, and pericardium. Chronic RHD often results from recurrent episodes of carditis. Its symptoms include the following:Murmurs are caused by valvular damage, especially to the mitral and aortic valves. Mitral stenosis or regurgitation is common, with characteristic heart murmurs...

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS
14.1K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Atherosclerosis IV: Nursing Management
50
Nursing management for a patient with arteriosclerosis involves a comprehensive approach focusing on lifestyle modification, disease monitoring, education, and symptomatic care. Here is an overview of effective nursing strategies:Assessment and Monitoring: Initial and ongoing assessments are crucial. Nurses must document the patient's medical history, including any hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and other cardiovascular diseases. Assessments also cover family history and lifestyle...

Atherosclerosis is a progressive disorder that leads to the thickening and narrowing of arterial walls due to plaque buildup. This condition can cause various symptoms depending on the arteries affected:Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): This condition affects the coronary arteries and may lead to chest pain (angina), shortness of breath (dyspnea), heart attacks, and other heart disease symptoms.Cerebrovascular Disease: This affects blood flow to the brain, causing transient ischemic attacks (TIAs)...

Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) management can be divided into two main strategies: prevention and long-term management.Primary PreventionPrimary prevention focuses on timely diagnosis and management of group A streptococcal pharyngitis to prevent acute rheumatic fever. The most widely used antibiotic for treating this condition is intramuscular benzathine penicillin G.Acute Rheumatic Fever TreatmentThe primary treatment goal for a patient diagnosed with acute rheumatic fever is to suppress the...
