“Puffy hand syndrome”
2016
Resume La toxicomanie intraveineuse est responsable de nombreuses complications notamment cutanees et infectieuses. Il existe un syndrome rarement observe en rhumatologie se traduisant par des « grosses mains » : le puffy hand syndrome. Nous en rapportons deux cas rencontres en consultation de rhumatologie chez deux patients toxicomanes. Il s’agit d’un œdeme des mains, bilateral, indolore, ne prenant pas le godet, survenant chez un de nos patients pendant l’intoxication par heroine, et chez l’autre 2 ans apres avoir arrete ses injections. Chez nos deux patients les bilans complementaires (biologiques, radiologiques, echographiques) etaient sans particularite, ce qui a permis dans le context…
Deaths Associated with Ankylosing Spondylitis in France from 1969 to 2009.
2017
Objective.To describe deaths for which ankylosing spondylitis (AS) was on death certificates in France.Methods.Death certificates in which AS was indicated were evaluated. Standard mortality ratio (SMR) was assessed.Results.AS appeared in 2940 death certificates. The mortality rate of AS seemed stable. The most frequent initial causes were diseases of the circulatory system [28.3% in the International Classification of Diseases, 10th ed (ICD-10)]. SMR adjusted for age and sex were 2.1 (95% CI 1.45–2.91) for infections and 0.43 (0.36–0.5) for cancers (ICD-10 period).Conclusion.This study found an increase in mortality from infectious and external causes of death; conversely, patients with AS…
FRI0044 Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are more beneficial than anti-tnfα drugs on the radiographic damage in arthritis: a study in adjuvant i…
2017
Background The management of the chronic inflammatory rheumatisms has dramatically evolved in the last decade with a concept of “treat to target”. The theory of a window of opportunity with more beneficial effects of an early intensive treatment is supported by several evidences. The positive impact of an early treatment with a TNFα blocker is expected but the place and the interest of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory treatments (NSAIDs) and glucocorticoids is not clear. Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiological outcomes after an early treatment during 21 days by Etanercept, or Naproxene, or Celecoxib, or Prednisone, or Diclofenac or Methotrexate in adjuvant induced a…

AB0438 Safety of tnf blockers in case of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and cirrhosisa systematic review
2018
Background The management of inflammatory rheumatisms and psoriasis has largely evolved over the last 15 years with the emergence of biotherapies whose main adverse effect is the increased infection risk. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome is increasing and has been estimated at 30% in patients with rheumatoid arthritis with an excess of 45% compared to healthy subjects. One of the major complications of the metabolic syndrome is the Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), which prevalence is 25% in the global population, and 30% in a cohort of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The main complication of NAFLD is the development of cirrhosis, known to increase infectious risk. Surprisi…

2018
Resume La spondylarthrite ankylosante est un rhumatisme inflammatoire chronique caracterise par une atteinte des entheses entrainant des douleurs inflammatoires et une impotence fonctionnelle. La spondylarthrite est associee potentiellement a des manifestations extra-articulaires (uveite, psoriasis, maladie intestinale chronique inflammatoire) et des comorbidites (cardiovasculaire et osteoporose) qui en font avec l’ankylose, la gravite de cette maladie. Comme de nombreuses maladies systemiques inflammatoires, il existe une surmortalite liee a une atteinte cardiovasculaire responsable d’un sur-risque d’infarctus du myocarde, d’accidents vasculaires cerebraux et d’evenements thromboemboliques…
Fine tuning the management of axial spondyloarthritis
2017
Updated recommendations for the management of axial spondyloarthritis provide a useful framework for physicians treating this disease. However, the guidance on use of biologic therapies and treat-to-target strategies seems to raise more questions than it answers.

Flare in axial spondyloarthritis. The dark side of the outcome
2016
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease with many phenotypes,1 but the frame of the disease is still a matter of debate, particularly regarding the non-radiographic forms of axial SpA.2 ,3 The disease evolution may have several profiles, mainly related to the treatment strategy, balancing from periods of remission or low disease activity to flares of the disease. The recommended treatment strategies are supposed to be tailored to the disease activity, aiming to reach remission or low disease activity in a T2T strategy,4 with management of remission (reduction of dosage or increase in interval of administration), as well as treatment intensification in case of fla…
Cardiovascular risk in psoriatic arthritis, a narrative review
2020
Abstract Introduction Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatism characterized for a long time by a high degree of cardiovascular risk. Chronic inflammation is one of the mechanisms that explain this cardiovascular excess of risk through direct and indirect pathways. In recent years, epidemiological data have changed somewhat since the increasing use of bio-drugs that are effective in reducing this inflammation. The purpose of this review is to assess the current state of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in PsA and thus to assess the cardiovascular risk in case of PsA. Method We conducted a literature review using Pubmed and Medline databases with the following key…

Impact of glucocorticoids on systemic sirtuin 1 expression and activity in rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis
2020
The class III histone deacetylase sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) plays a pivotal role in numerous biological and physiological functions, including inflammation. An association between SIRT1 and proinflammatory cytokines might exist. In addition to their important role in inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), proinflammatory cytokines mediate the development of systemic effects. Here, we evaluated systemic SIRT1 expression and enzymatic activity, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and in liver isolated from rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA), treated or not with low or high doses of glucocorticoids (GCs). We also measured the production of tumour necrosis factor alph…
