Filter by:This is a descriptive, ambispective, and single-site study in Colombia, which is designed to evaluate the adherence, persistence, and clinical outcomes (defined as the patient's disease activity and functional status) of RA patients within 40 weeks after the patient administered the first injection of the etanercept medication through the Smartclic® device. The study data seeks from medical records containing the Smartclic device injection log and pharmacy claims database available from an institution specialized in rheumatological care. The study will only include records of patients treated or starting treatment with etanercept and whose indicated autoinjection device has been Smartclic.
Bone and/or joint infections, such as septic arthritis (SA), are rare, but delayed diagnosis or improper treatment can result in irreversible joint destruction. Therefore, early diagnosis and effective treatment are necessary to prevent severe outcomes. Clear protocols for SA rehabilitation are unavailable, and physiotherapy studies are few. Robot training in patients with musculoskeletal diseases, including burns, can reduce pain and improve lower extremity function. Studies on robot training have been conducted in patients with burn injuries. Rebless® (H-ROBOTICS, KOREA) is a knee or ankle robot for range of motion (ROM) and strength training that can operate in passive or active mode in knee or ankle flexion and extension. The patients underwent 30 min of robot training using Rebless® with 30 min conventional therapy, 5 days a week for 8 weeks. This study aims to confirm the clinical effect after 8 weeks of robotic treatment for patients diagnosed with septic arthritis.
The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence and precise grading of US abnormalities of the hand and wrist in asymptomatic patients with SLE, while comparing these findings with a group of patients with SLE with musculoskeletal signs or symptoms and with healthy controls.
To evaluate the changes in the frequencies of circulating CD4+ and CD4- T cells expressing CD8αα and CD8αβ in peripheral blood of RA patients in comparison with healthy controls. Also, to correlate circulating and synovial fluid levels of these cells with disease activity score (DAS28) and other indices of disease severity.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disabling disease leading to joint and bones destruction. This autoimmune disease is multifactorial, and some genetic and environmental risk factors are already described. However, a part of heritability is still unknown. Previous genomics studies dedicated to deciphering this missing heritability did not pay attention to age of onset. The purpose of this protocol is to determine genomic markers which are specific of RA with an age of onset above 65 years old. Indeed, clinical presentation, treatment tolerance and efficiency, and frequent comorbidities of this phenotype are particular. This signature of genomic biomarkers will be integrated in known molecular pathways to highlight specificities, helpful for biological targets identification.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Iguratimod combined with Tofacitinib in the treatment of csDMARD-IR patients with active moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis
A Prospective, Multi-Center, Single-Arm Clinical Trial of the safety and effectiveness of the Aptis PRUJ prosthesis for the treatment of patients with proximal radial ulna joint disorders
Compare clinical and radiological outcome of use of single screw versus double screws fixation for subtalar arthrodesis
This clinical trial will investigate the effects of capsules containing stool from healthy donors, called fecal microbial transplant (FMT), in rheumatoid arthritis patients.
There is no treatment that could utterly cure Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the disease is mainly improved by conventional disease-modifying anti rheumatic drugs. Methotrexate and biological DMARDs as JAK-STAT inhibitors may be used to control and delay the progression of the disease and improve the quality of lives of patients. However, DMARDs have deleterious effects on human health. Several natural components have JAK-STAT inhibitory effect such as Boswellic acid (Boswellia serrata extract), Glycyrrhizin (Glycyrrhiza glabra extr.) and Apigenin (Chamomile extr)
