Rheumatoid arthritis is an auto-immune disorders that mainly affects the joints. It may also affect other organs of the body such as skin, eyes, lungs and heart. The immune system of the body attacks the lining of the joint that results in erosion and joint deformity. This condition if untreated may lead to disability. RA is managed by medications known as disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) as well as physical therapy. Dietary and lifestyle modification may also ease the condition.
The investigators will study the effects of methotrexate on blood pressure, arterial stiffness and endothelial function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
A post market, prospective, non-randomized, multi-center, open-label, clinical study using survivorship as the reference performance goal to study the safety and efficacy of the Titan Modular Shoulder System 2.5 when used for primary shoulder arthroplasty.
The purpose of the study is to develop a validated French version of the HAQ-II questionnaire for rheumatoid arthritis.
Fatigue is common and disabling for most patients with inflammatory rheumatic disease. Therapies designed to improve physical activity and 'talking' treatments, which positively help patients change the way they think and behave, are both helpful in reducing the burden of the fatigue. However, few patients have access to these treatments in most health services. This situation results from the absence of standardised programmes and limited availability of relevant therapists. The investigators aim to enhance access to fatigue alleviating physical activity and talking therapies by testing innovative,standardised and cost-effective approaches to treatment delivery. The investigators will also use this opportunity to understand how to select the best treatment for a patient based on their individual profile and to better understand how these treatments actually work. This in turn may lead to more refined and effective therapies in the future.
Tendon pathologies (enthesitis) are a characteristic component of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and are observed in 35% to 50% of PsA patients. The Achilles tendon is one of the most commonly affected sites. This condition often causes great morbidity and loss of quality of life, and response only suboptimal to current intervention strategies. One of the main obstacles for the development of effective treatment methods is that the disease mechanisms remain poorly understood. To our knowledge, no one has yet ascertained the presence and function of immune-competent cells and inflammatory markers in tendons tissue from PsA patients suffering from Achilles enthesitis.
This study will evaluate the long term performance and safety data for the Cadence™ Total Ankle System (CTAS) when used for primary arthroplasty in patients with primary arthritis (e.g. degenerative disease), secondary arthritis (e.g. post-traumatic, avascular necrosis, if minimally 2/3 of the talus is preserved), and systemic arthritis of the ankle (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, hemochromatosis)
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a disorder of unknown cause characterized by chronic inflammation of the joints and other organs. It affects about 1 in a 1000 Canadian children and if untreated it can produce lifelong disability. The Canadian Alliance of Pediatric Rheumatology Investigators (CAPRI) includes most pediatric rheumatologists in Canada. They have successfully collaborated for the past 20 years producing groundbreaking research on the modern course and outcomes of JIA. The CAPRI JIA Registry is an ongoing universal registry of Canadian children with JIA that collects longitudinal data on disease course, outcomes and adverse events to inform healthcare decisions and to gain new insights into the disease and its treatment.
A post market, non-randomized, multi-center, open-label,clinical study using survivorship to study the safety and efficacy of the Integra® TITAN™ Total Shoulder System 1.0 (TAS) when used for total shoulder arthroplasty.
