A Case of Newly Diagnosed Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia with Rheumatoid Arthritis Presentation
There are greater than 10,000 newly diagnosed cases of myelodysplastic syndromes in the United States each year [1]. Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a myelodysplastic disease with myeloproliferative features. Not uncommonly, CMML presents with varying autoimmune phenomena. Vasculitis, polychondritis, and polyarthritis have been associated with myelodysplastic diseases such as CMML [2-...
متن کاملImpaired responsiveness to NO in newly diagnosed patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
OBJECTIVE Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of excessive mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We determined whether endothelial dysfunction characterizes patients with newly diagnosed RA (n=10) compared with normal subjects (control group, n=33) and whether it is reversible with 6 months of anti-inflammatory therapy. METHODS AND RESULTS Endothelial function was determ...
متن کاملEarly referral recommendation for newly diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis: evidence based development of a clinical guide.
BACKGROUND Effective treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) requires early diagnosis and early disease modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) treatment to have an impact on long term morbidity and mortality. Clinical criteria would facilitate early referral of the patient with suspected RA to a rheumatologist for definitive diagnosis and initiation of DMARD treatment at that point in the d...

Fractures of the odontoid process are mainly noted after a major trauma to the cervical spine. A case of a 77-year-old woman with paresthesia of the extremit...
متن کاملSomatic mutations in clonally expanded cytotoxic T lymphocytes in patients with newly diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis
Somatic mutations contribute to tumorigenesis. Although these mutations occur in all proliferating cells, their accumulation under non-malignant conditions, such as in autoimmune disorders, has not been investigated. Here, we show that patients with newly diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis have expanded CD8+ T-cell clones; in 20% (5/25) of patients CD8+ T cells, but not CD4+ T cells, harbour somati...
