Osteoporosis in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Dangerous Liaisons

TL;DR: The relationship between different factors involved in the development of osteoporosis in RA patients, both the classic factors and the most novel, are unraveled, based on the relationship of autoantibodies with bone remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies are associated with decreased bone mineral density: baseline data from a register of early arthritis patients.

TL;DR: The data reinforce the previous preclinical findings suggesting that the systemic bone loss detected at the initial phases of early ACPA-positive arthritis is independent of inflammatory status and, therefore, could be mediated by ACPA.
Journal Article

TL;DR: The intravenous administration of tocilizumab yields a rapid beneficial effect on IR and insulin sensitivity in non-diabetic RA patients, and support the potential beneficial effect of the IL-6 blockade on the mechanisms associated with the development of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease in patients with RA.
