Résumé :

I investigated the humoral immune response to streptococcal cell walls (SCW) in arthritis susceptible Lewis and resistant Fisher rats. All rats were given a single intraperitoneal injection of either SCW or saline (controls). Rats were sacrificed, three rats per time point, over an eleven week period and serum was collected for ELISA. SCW injected Lewis rats produced anti-SCW antibody, whereas control rats did not. Anti-SCW antibody was significantly elevated over controls between days 14-28 (post injection). Both saline and SCW injected Fisher rats produced anti-SCW antibody, but with differe

Résumé :

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease with an unknown aetiology characterized by joint destruction. Both genetic and environmental factors contribute to the disease development with HLA-DRB1* alleles and smoking identified as most important. The disease is characterized by the presence of autoantibodies, originally by rheumatoid factor (RF) and more recently by anti citrullinated protein/peptide antibodies (ACPA) and antibodies against carbamylated peptides (CarP). These autoantibodies are present, not only after the onset of disease, but also prior to the onset of sympto

Sixty-three patients completed a twice-daily structured dairy consisting of an eight scale revision of the Ways of Coping (WOC), the depression subscale of the Affects Balance Scale (ABS), and a pain visual analogue scale (VAS). Multivariate analyses for repeated measures identified two coping strategies, Self-Care and Positive Reappraisal, as significantly effective in pain reduction.

Résumé :

There is an increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) comorbidity among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with premature atherosclerosis, and a higher incidence of CV events, compared with the general population. Disease related factors add to the CV risk, and interact with the traditional CV risk factors. The underlying mechanism for this is not completely understood. In active RA there is a loss of muscle mass and an increase in body fat content. Production of cytokines, i.e., adipokines, in the adipose tissue could link the inflammation with the CV system.

Résumé :

Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic progressive destructive joint disease with an increased risk for co-morbidity and premature death if untreated. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of death but also other co-morbid conditions contribute to the patient’s shorter life expectancy. Inflammation is important for the development of CVD, but knowledge of its relationship with other co-morbidities is sparse. Early disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) can suppress disease activity and improve the long-term outcome. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate prospecti

Résumé :

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disabling disease that is associated with a shortened life span. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) contributes to this increased mortality, and also to a great extent to the co-morbidity observed in patients with RA. This thesis aimed to investigate these issues further. The incidence of, and prognosis after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) /or stroke in a cohort of RA patients was compared with that in the general population within the northern Sweden MONICA register. The standard incidence ratio (SIR) for AMI was 2.9 and for stroke 2.7 in RA patients com

Résumé :

Despite the development of new biomarkers predicting prognosis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains challenging and targeting of powerful biologics difficult. The presence of ectopic germinal centres (GC) within synovium has long been recognised (ectopic lymphoneogenesis [ELN]) and data have suggested that they manufacture antibody (Ab). High affinity class switched Ab production occurs through class switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM) both critically dependent on activation induced cytidine deaminase (AID). However, whether ectopic GCs express AID has not been known. No

Résumé :

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic and inflammatory disease that has been associated with an increased morbidity and mortality in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Low aerobic capacity is one of the strongest independent risk factors for CVD and all-cause mortality in the general population. In patients with longstanding RA, low aerobic capacity has been related with a worse cardiovascular profile and an increased risk of CVD mortality. As a consequence of this, low aerobic capacity might provide an additional risk factor for CVD in patients with RA. The aim of this thesis was to describe the

In addition, this thesis compares disability between women and men and compares disability between RA patients and referents.

Background. Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that, without powerful treatment, may lead to irreversible joint damage.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease that may affect all organs and is characterized by a massive antibody production.
