Gonzalez-Gay,Sella Aarrestad Provan,Anne Grete Semb,Prodromos Sidiropoulos,George D. Kitas,Yvo M. Smulders,Martin Soubrier,Zoltán Szekanecz,Naveed Sattar,Michael T. Nurmohamed +17 more
TL;DR: Ten recommendations were made for CV risk management in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and the strength of the recommendations differed between RA on the one hand, and AS and PsA, on the other, as evidence for an increased CV risk is most compelling for RA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue factor expression in neutrophil extracellular traps and neutrophil derived microparticles in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated vasculitis may promote thromboinflammation and the thrombophilic state associated with the disease
Konstantinos Kambas,Akrivi Chrysanthopoulou,Dimitrios Vassilopoulos,Eirini Apostolidou,Panagiotis Skendros,Andreas Girod,Stella Arelaki,Marios Froudarakis,Lydia Nakopoulou,Alexandra Giatromanolaki,Prodromos Sidiropoulos,Maria Koffa,Dimitrios T. Boumpas,Konstantinos Ritis,Ioannis Mitroulis +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, neutrophil tissue factor (TF) was found to be implicated in the thrombotic diathesis in AAV, and TF expression was assessed by immunoblotting and confocal microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expansion of toll-like receptor 9-expressing B cells in active systemic lupus erythematosus: implications for the induction and maintenance of the autoimmune process.
Eva D. Papadimitraki,Christianna Choulaki,Eleni Koutala,George Bertsias,Christos Tsatsanis,Irini Gergianaki,Amalia Raptopoulou,H D Kritikos,Clio Mamalaki,Prodromos Sidiropoulos,Dimitrios T. Boumpas +10 more
TL;DR: In patients with active SLE, the proportion of peripheral blood memory B cells and plasma cells expressing TLR-9 is increased and endogenous nucleic acids released during apoptotic cell death may stimulate B cells via TLr-9 and contribute to SLE pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lessons learned from anti-CD40L treatment in systemic lupus erythematosus patients.
TL;DR: In view of the significant immunomodulatory effects of anti-CD40L treatment in patients with lupus nephritis, the increasing realization of the importance of premature atherosclerosis in l upus and an increasing amount of data supporting a role for the CD40-CD 40L interactions in this process, inhibition of this pathway deserves further exploration in lupu.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-tumor necrosis factor therapy improves insulin resistance, beta cell function and insulin signaling in active rheumatoid arthritis patients with high insulin resistance

TL;DR: Anti-TNF therapy improved insulin sensitivity and reversed defects in the insulin signaling cascade in RA patients with active disease and high insulin resistance, and was effective in modifying cardiovascular disease burden in active RA patients.
