The patient was a 62 year old man, who suddenly developed obstructive lung disease without a readily definable cause. He had a remarkable family history of deforming rheumatoid arthritis, and a serum rheumatoid factor of 1:1,256, but with no evidence of active rheumatological disease. Clinical, physiological and radiologic features suggested bronchiolitis obliterans, and this was confirmed by o...
Remission was a rare event, even in the most advanced rheumatology clinics, until recent times. However, in the early 1990s, it was chosen as the treatment goal and the primary outcome measure for the Finnish Rheumatoid Arthritis Combination Therapy (FIN-RACo) trial, which can be considered the beginning of remission's way to rheumatology. In addition to remission in patients with rheumatoid ar...
Received: 17 April, 2009 Accepted: 18 Nov, 2009 Abstract: Background & Aims: Rheumatoid Arthritis is an inflammatory disease. The cause is yet unknown.

conclusions based on the findings of this study, s. aureus enterotoxin c (sec) has been detected in synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis by pcr and elisa methods. these valuable findings may describe the exact etiology of the ra and as well as change the methods of its diagnosis and treatment. this is the first research, which has shown the staphylococcal entc gene in synovial f...
In a recent report, Roy, Alexander, and Duthie (1955) reviewed the literature on the characteristics of anaemia in rheumatoid arthritis and described abnormalities of iron metabolism in this disease. It was shown that the anaemia did not present the typical features of iron-deficiency and that there was no evidence of impaired absorption of iron from the gut in the majority of cases. Decreased ...
Introduction: Some of the studies have shown that RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) may cause hearing disorders. These disorders can result in problems later in life, so survey of correlation between rheumatoid arthritis and hearing disorders is important .

OBJECTIVE To compare basal and stimulated prolactin levels between patients with rheumatoid arthritis and healthy controls, and to assess the effects of antirheumatic treatment on prolactin concentrations. METHODS Serum prolactin was assessed under basal conditions and during an insulin tolerance test (ITT) in 20 patients with recently diagnosed active rheumatoid arthritis and 20 age and sex ...
Despite the advent of biologics, rheumatoid arthritis continues to be closely linked with pain, functional impairment, and depression, and a significant number of those with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis are too disabled to work several years after onset (Sokka et al., 1999). Furthermore, biologics have increased medical costs to nearly $20,000/patient/year and side effects have hinde...
Background: Pulmonary involvement is a common and serious complication of rheumatoid arthritis. This cross sectional study sought to determine the prevalence of pulmonary disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis on the basis of history, physical examination, chest X-ray and PFT. Materials and Methods: 103 patients (81 Women, 22 Men) fulfilling the ACR (American College of Rheumatology) cr...
Ingestion of fish oil fatty acids (omega - 3 fatty acids ) inhibits the formation of arachidonic acid - derived cytokines and leads to production of compounds with diminished biological activity. Beneficial effects of dietary supplementation with fish oil in rheumatoid arthritis have been shown in many controlled trials.Methods : 43 patients with active rheumatoid arthritis entered in a prospec...
