概括
晚发性牛皮关节炎 (PsA) 患者有多关节炎和更多的并发症,但与早期发病的PsA相比,他们的结局和治疗方法类似. 这项研究突出了60岁以后的PsA发病的独特特征.
科学领域:
- 类风湿病学 类风湿病学
- 临床免疫学临床免疫学
- 流行病学 流行病学
背景情况:
- 牛皮关节炎 (PsA) 可以在生命的晚期表现,称为晚发性PsA (LoPsA),影响大约16%的患者.
- 了解LoPsA至关重要,因为它可能代表一个独特的临床子组.
研究的目的:
- 与早期发病的PsA相比,研究LoPsA患者的独特临床特征,疾病进展和治疗反应.
- 确定与LoPsA发展相关的因素.
主要方法:
- 一个横截面的观察性研究,涉及805名PSA患者从全国范围的真实世界队列.
- 130名患者 (16%) 被确定为LoPsA (疾病发病年龄≥60岁).
- 使用单变量和多变量逻辑回归分析来比较LoPsA特征并确定相关因素.
主要成果:
- LoPsA患者不太可能有牛皮家族病史.
- 在诊断时,LoPsA与多关节炎的更高概率和在疾病过程中患肠炎的可能性更低有关.
- 患有LoPsA的患者出现并发症 (糖尿病,高血压) 的比率增加,以及发生重大心血管不良事件 (MACE) 的可能性更高.
结论:
- 晚期发病的PsA的特点是不同的临床表现,包括多关节炎,并与更高的并发病和心血管风险相关.
- 尽管存在这些差异,但LoPsA患者的治疗模式和整体疾病结果与早期发病的PsA患者相似.

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS
15.2K
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.

Rheumatic Heart Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies
439
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...

Peripheral Arterial Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Evaluation
317
Clinical manifestationsPeripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) manifests through a range of symptoms, from the characteristic intermittent claudication to atypical presentations and severe complications in advanced stages. Intermittent claudication, a hallmark symptom of PAD, presents as exercise-induced muscle pain that typically resolves within minutes of rest. This pain is reproducible and stems from inadequate blood flow, leading to the accumulation of lactic acid produced during anaerobic...

Atherosclerosis II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Tests
430
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)...
