Brightly-coloured fruit and veg may protect against arthritis
Researchers from The University of Manchester's Medical School have discovered that eating more brightly-coloured fruits and vegetables like oranges, carrots and sweetcorn may help reduce the risk of developing inflammatory disorders like rheumatoid arthritis. view more (2005-08-18)
New clues to healing arthritis caused by traumatic injury
A strain of laboratory mice that has "superhealing" powers has been found to resist inflammation after a knee injury, and also to avoid developing arthritis at the injury site in the long term, according to researchers at Duke University Medical Center. view more (2009-02-23)
A new view of drugs used to treat rheumatoid arthritis
Powerful drugs used to treat patients with rheumatoid arthritis have a profound, previously unrecognized effect on the immune system, breaking up molecular "training camps" for rogue cells that play an increasingly recognized role in autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. view more (2008-01-21)
Monoclonal antibody reduces exacerbations in asthmatics
Patients with symptomatic moderate asthma who were treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha, an anti-inflammatory monoclonal antibody, experienced significantly fewer disease exacerbations than individuals taking a placebo. view more (2006-10-02)
Tocilizumab study offers new hope for children with arthritis
A new study has confirmed significant improvements after treatment with tocilizumab amongst children with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA), who do not tolerate or have an inadequate response to conventional therapies. view more (2006-06-23)
Steps toward Stopping Autoimmune Disease
A landmark genetic study has identified multiple genes linked to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), or lupus, a debilitating autoimmune disease that affects an estimated 1.4 million Americans. view more (2008-01-21)
Enzyme's newly discovered role may make it target for arthritis treatment
Scientists have found a new role for a previously identified enzyme that may make it a target for anti-inflammatory treatments. view more (2005-06-27)
Synthetic protein eases arthritis symptoms in mice
A lab-made version of a human protein alleviates symptoms of both acute and chronic arthritis in mice and could be the basis for a new arthritis drug for people, report scientists from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). view more (2005-10-04)
Breakthrough developments in rheumatoid arthritis reported
Peter K. Gregersen, MD, stares at x-rays of hands, searching out the telltale signs of inflamed joints and wrists from his research subjects with rheumatoid arthritis. view more (2007-06-11)
Unfavourable blood fat levels predict rheumatoid arthritis up to 10 years later
An unfavourable ratio of blood fats could herald the development of the inflammatory joint disease rheumatoid arthritis up to 10 years later, suggests research published ahead of print in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases. view more (2006-06-05)
Further legitimization of fibromyalgia as a true medical condition
Fibromyalgia, a chronic, widespread pain in muscles and soft tissues accompanied by fatigue, is a fairly common condition that does not manifest any structural damage in an organ. view more (2007-06-26)
Scientists Discover Role of Enzyme in DNA Repair
Scientists from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), National Cancer Institute (NCI), and Integrative Bioinformatics Inc. have made an important discovery about the role of an enzyme called ataxia telangiectasia mutated protein (ATM) in the body's ability to repair damaged DNA. NIAMS and NCI are part... view more... (2007-06-28)
Molecule linked to autoimmune disease relapses identified at Stanford
The ebb and flow of such autoimmune diseases as multiple sclerosis, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis has long been a perplexing mystery. view more (2006-12-04)
Specific antagonism lowers blood pressure
High blood pressure (hypertension) is associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke, and the frequent use of drugs known as NSAIDs, for example to treat individuals with rheumatoid arthritis, can cause hypertension. view more (2007-08-17)
What's been causing your knee to ache? Smurfs!
A new clinical trial seeks to predict who is most likely to experience osteoarthritis, and to test whether an experimental treatment can prevent it altogether. Physicians are setting their sights on people who sustain a knee injury, seeking to understand why nearly half of them will later go on to develop osteoarthritis, a debilitating condition... view more...

Coffee may be linked to rheumatoid arthritis
Coffee drinkers seem to be at increased risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis, suggests research in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases. The association between coffee drinking and the presence of a hallmark indicator for the development of rheumatoid arthritis?rheumatoid factor?was studied in a cross sectional survey of almost 7,000 people,... view more...

Gene therapy demonstrates benefit in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Researchers have reported the first clinical evidence that gene therapy reduces symptoms in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, an important milestone for this promising treatment which has endured a sometimes turbulent past. view more (2009-01-27)

Women with rheumatoid arthritis have significantly less chance of remission than men, finds research published ahead of print in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases. view more (2006-12-07)
Study uncovers potential biomarker for lupus atherosclerosis
A certain form of the normally "good" high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol linked to cardiovascular health plays a counterproductive role in people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis. view more (2005-11-16)
Rheumatoid arthritis could be prevented if the timing is right
Patients diagnosed with 'undifferentiated rheumatoid' arthritis could actually have their disease outlook changed significantly if treatment is given at the right time. view more (2006-06-22)
