Anti-TNF Antibody Therapy in Rheumatoid Arthritis and the Risk of Serious Infections and Malignancies: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Rare Harmful Effects in Randomized Controlled Trials

TL;DR: There is evidence of an increased risk of serious infections and a dose-dependent increasedrisk of malignancies in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with anti-TNF antibody therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Incidence and mortality of interstitial lung disease in rheumatoid arthritis: A population-based study

TL;DR: The devastating impact of ILD on survival provides evidence that development of better strategies for the treatment of I LD could significantly lower the excess mortality among individuals with RA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Incidence and risk factors of prosthetic joint infection after total hip or knee replacement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

TL;DR: Patients with RA who undergo total hip or knee replacement are at increased risk of prosthetic joint infection, which is further increased in the setting of revision arthroplasty and a previous prosthetics joint infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of intraarticular and periarticular uric acid crystals with dual-energy CT: initial evaluation.

TL;DR: Initial retrospective assessment suggests that dual-energy CT is a sensitive, noninvasive, and reproducible method for identifying uric acid deposits in joints and periarticular soft tissues in patients suspected of having gout.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual-energy CT for the diagnosis of gout: an accuracy and diagnostic yield study.

TL;DR: In this article, the accuracy of dual-energy CT (DECT) for diagnosing gout was assessed and the sensitivity and specificity of DECT was calculated against a combined reference standard (polarising and electron microscopy of synovial fluid).
