To develop evidence based recommendations for the management of hand osteoarthritis (OA).
Objectives To agree terminology and to develop recommendations for the diagnosis of calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD). Methods The European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) CPPD Task Force, comprising 15 experts from 10 countries, agreed terms using a Delphi consensus approach. Evidence was systematically reviewed presented in sensitivity, specificity positive likelihood ratio (LR) support diagnosis; ORs were used association. Strength recommendation (SOR) assessed by EULAR visual...
While various monocyte chemokine systems are increased in expression osteoarthritis (OA), the hierarchy of chemokines and receptors mediating monocyte/macrophage recruitment to OA joint remains poorly defined. Here, we investigated relative contributions CCL2/CCR2 versus CCL5/CCR5 axes pathogenesis.Ccl2-, Ccr2-, Ccl5- Ccr5-deficient control mice were subjected destabilisation medial meniscus surgery induce OA. The pharmacological utility blocking signalling mouse was using bindarit, a CCL2...
Although gout is the most common inflammatory arthritis, it still frequently misdiagnosed. New data on imaging and clinical diagnosis have become available since first EULAR recommendations for of in 2006. This prompted a systematic review update 2006 recommendations. A literature concerning all aspects was performed. Recommendations were formulated using Delphi consensus approach. Eight key generated. search crystals synovial fluid or tophus aspirates recommended every person with suspected...
Objectives To develop evidence-based recommendations for management of calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD). Methods A multidisciplinary guideline development group 15 experts, representing 10 European countries, generated key propositions CPPD using a Delphi consensus approach. For each recommendation research evidence was searched systematically. Whenever possible, the effect size and number needed to treat efficacy RR or OR side effects were calculated individual treatment modalities....
To assess the prevalence of prolonged remission in Caucasian patients affected with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and its relationship damage accrual.Caucasian diagnosed SLE between 1990 2009 quarterly seen from to 2013 were included study. We defined as when lasting ≥5 consecutive years. Three levels using Disease Activity Index-2000 (SLEDAI-2K): complete remission: no disease activity corticosteroid-free immunosuppressant-free patients; clinical off corticosteroids: serologically...
To evaluate the prevalence, duration and effect on damage accrual of 'Lupus Low Disease Activity State' (LLDAS) in a monocentric cohort patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).We studied 293 Caucasian SLE during 7-year follow-up period. activity was assessed by Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) SELENA-SLEDAI physician global assessment (PGA), Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College Rheumatology Damage (SDI). We considered following definition LLDAS: SLEDAI-2K ≤4...
