Knochenbefunde bei Psoriasis

1978

Unter 40 mit der Ganzkorperscintigraphie (Technetium-Diphosphonat) untersuchten Psoriatikern fanden sich bei 3 Patientinnen diffuse und umschriebene pathologisch gesteigerte Nuklidanreicherungen im Schadelskelet. Diese gelenkfernen Proliferationszeichen im Knochenbereich weisen ebenso wie der gegenuber dem Gelenkscan haufiger positive Knochenscan auf eine Fruhbeteiligung des knochernen Skelets bei Psoriasis hin.

Extrahepatic Manifestations of Chronic HCV

2011

A number of extrahepatic manifestations have been reported in patients infected with HCV. The most prominent of theme are MC vasculitis, lymphoproliferative malignancies, renal disease, polyarthritis, thyroid and glucose disorders. Although these conditions might have a substantial impact on morbidity, patient management, and prognosis, for most of them the exact mechanisms underlying their development require further elucidation.

[Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (Grönblad-Strandberg syndrome) and rheumatoid arthritis].

1990

A 72-year-old woman, not previously known to have coronary heart disease, was admitted to hospital with an acute anterior wall myocardial infarction. The history revealed that, when about 40 years of age, a coarse skin-fold and yellowish-white xanthoma-like efflorescences had been noted around her umbilicus, the inguinal regions and axillae. These changes subsequently developed into a pathognomonic picture of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PE), which was a significant factor in the myocardial infarction. At the age of 69 years, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), stage II after Steinbrocker, had been diagnosed on the basis of morning stiffness, symmetrical arthritis in more than three joint regions and t…

The efficacy of intra-articular PRP, ozone and ozone+PRP injections in patients with osteoarthritis

2018

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and some joints are effected more than others. The prevalence of OA increases with age and it represents the major problem for functional impairment in older patients. Non-surgical treatment with oral drugs is not suitable for many patients suffering from gastric disorders, high blood pressure or different heart diseases. Intra-articular injections are a promising solution in these cases.
 This study was performed to compare the efficacy and safety of ozone injections, PRP (platelet rich plasma) injections and combined ozone plus PRP injections in patients with symptomatic knee OA. 
 120 patients were diagnosed of OA accordi…

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…

AB0467 EFFECTIVENESS OF GOLIMUMAB AFTER TNF-INHIBITOR FAILURE IN PATIENTS WITH ACTIVE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS, PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS, OR AXIAL SPONDYLOART…

2021

Background:Golimumab showed trial efficacy in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) previously treated with TNF-inhibitors (TNFi); no trial data are available for psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).Objectives:To assess the effectiveness of golimumab after TNFi failure in patients with RA, PsA, or axSpA in a real-world setting.Methods:GO-BEYOND-Italy is an ongoing, multicenter, prospective, observational study of RA, PsA, or axSpA patients starting golimumab after TNFi failure. Patients were enrolled between July 2017 and December 2019, and followed for 1 year, with evaluations at 3, 6, and 12 months. This interim analysis estimates the effectiveness after…

SU-G-201-02: Application of RayStretch in Clinical Cases: A Calculation for Heterogeneity Corrections in LDR Permanent I-125 Prostate Brachytherapy

2016

Purpose: Tissue heterogeneities and calcifications have significant impact on the dosimetry of low energy brachytherapy (BT). RayStretch is an analytical algorithm developed in our institution to incorporate heterogeneity corrections in LDR prostate brachytherapy. The aim of this work is to study its application in clinical cases by comparing its predictions with the results obtained with TG-43 and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Methods: A clinical implant (71 I-125 seeds, 15 needles) from a real patient was considered. On this patient, different volumes with calcifications were considered. Its properties were evaluated in three ways by i) the Treatment planning system (TPS) (TG-43), ii) a M…

La sinoviortesis radioisotópica en la artritis reumatoide. Estudio de 108 casos

2000

There are several therapeutic alternatives in the local treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA): intraarticular corticosteroids, chemical synoviorthesis, surgical synovectomy and synoviorthesis with radioisotopes. We present the results of an observational study on radioisotopic synoviorthesis carried out in the Valencian health care area from January 1989 to May 1997 which included 108 synoviortheses performed in 51 patients. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of radiosynoviorthesis in the treatment of RA which had not responded to conventional treatment. Good and moderate results were obtained in 76.2% of the cases, there being significant differences in the efficacy of syn…
