Journal ArticleDOI
Modified disease activity scores that include twenty-eight-joint counts : development and validation in a prospective longitudinal study of patients with rheumatoid arthritis
M.L.L. Prevoo,M.A. van 't Hof,H.H. Kuper,M.A. van Leeuwen,L. B. A. Van De Putte,P.L.C.M. van Riel +5 more
TL;DR: The Modified DAS that included 28-joint counts were able to discriminate between high and low disease activity (as indicated by clinical decisions of rheumatologists) and are as valid as disease activity scores that include more comprehensive joint counts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and validation of the European League Against Rheumatism response criteria for rheumatoid arthritis: comparison with the preliminary American College of Rheumatology and the World Health Organization/International League Against Rheumatism criteria
A.M. van Gestel,M.L.L. Prevoo,M.A. van 't Hof,M. H. Van Rijswijk,L. B. A. Van De Putte,P.L.C.M. van Riel +5 more
TL;DR: EULAR response criteria showed better construct and discriminant validity than did the ACR and the WHO/ILAR response criteria for RA and the World Health Organization and International League Against Rheumatism criteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Citrulline is an essential constituent of antigenic determinants recognized by rheumatoid arthritis-specific autoantibodies.
G.A. Schellekens,B.A. de Jong,F.H.J. van den Hoogen,L. B. A. Van De Putte,W. J. Van Venrooij +4 more
TL;DR: It is shown that autoantibodies reactive with synthetic peptides containing the unusual amino acid citrulline, a posttranslationally modified arginine residue, are specifically present in the sera of RA patients, and the presence of these antibodies early in disease, even before other disease manifestations occur, are indicative for a possible role of citrulling epitopes in the pathogenesis of RA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Judging disease activity in clinical practice in rheumatoid arthritis: first step in the development of a disease activity score.
D. van der Heijde,M.A. van 't Hof,P.L.C.M. van Riel,L A Theunisse,Erik Lubberts,M.A. van Leeuwen,M. H. Van Rijswijk,L. B. A. Van De Putte +7 more
TL;DR: An investigation of clinical and laboratory variables which might form the basis for judging disease activity in clinical practice was made by six rheumatologists in a prospective study of up to three years' duration of 113 patients with early r heumatoid arthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The prognostic value of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody in patients with recent-onset rheumatoid arthritis.
E.J.A. Kroot,B. A. W. de Jong,M.A. van Leeuwen,H.L. Swinkels,F.H.J. van den Hoogen,M.A. van 't Hof,L. B. A. Van De Putte,M. H. Van Rijswijk,W. J. Van Venrooij,P.L.C.M. van Riel +9 more
TL;DR: The data show that in almost 70% of RA patients, anti-CCP antibody is present at the early stages of disease, and patients with anti- CCP-positive patients developed significantly more severe radiologic damage than patients who were anti- CCP negative.
