This controlled study examined the characteristics of serologic abnormalities in 52 patients receiving procainamide for cardiac arrhythmias, who had no symptoms of a connective tissue disease. Antinuclear antibodies occurred in 43 patients (83%). Significant elevation of antibody binding to single-stranded DNA (mean +/- SEM 30 +/- 2.6%), double-stranded DNA (13 +/- 1.1%), Z-DNA (optical density 0.54 +/- 0.06), and poly A (7.2 +/- 0.6%) was seen (P less than 0.001). Thirty-four patients (65.4%) had antibodies to total histones, most frequently, the H2A/2B dimer. IgG antibodies to H2A/2B correlated with the cumulative procainamide dose. One patient subsequently developed drug-related lupus. 相似文献

Atypical mycobacterial infections of the musculoskeletal system are very rare and are generally associated with predisposing
factors, such as trauma, use of corticosteroids, or an immunocompromised state. There have only been three reports of Mycobacterium chelonae prosthetic infection of which two cases were associated with total hip arthroplasty and one with total knee arthroplasty
and no reports of both Mycobacterium tuberculosis and M. chelonae occurring in the same joint. We report a case of a patient with rheumatoid arthritis treated with low-dose methotrexate (15 mg/week)
who developed infection with both M. tuberculosis and M. chelonae after the revision of a prosthetic hip. Joint infections by mycobacteria are clinically indistinguishable from those caused
by more common bacterial pathogens and, therefore, diagnosis is often delayed. Recurrent prosthetic hip infections, particularly
in immunosuppressive patients, should alert the physician to consider the possibility of both tuberculous and atypical mycobacterial
infections. Obtaining appropriate cultures can be critical in making the diagnosis and directing treatment. With the increasing
use of immunosuppressive agents, including TNF alpha inhibitors, it is likely that there will be an increase in the number
of mycobacterial infections complicating arthroplasties. 相似文献

This article reviews the major contributions to our understanding of the rheumatic diseases. These include the first definite evidence of linkage between genes controlling the immune response and the major histocompatibility complex genotype; the recognition of the types and the role of the many crystals in arthritis; the application of sophisticated immunologic techniques to the understanding of the antinuclear autoantibodies; the recognition of a new disorder--Lyme arthritis; and the contributions of joint replacement and other surgeries, and the numerous drugs and procedures now available for treatment of patients. 相似文献

Autoantibodies and lupus-like syndromes can develop following the use of certain medications; however, although many patients develop autoantibodies, only a minority develop clinical features. Although these autoantibodies primarily consist of antinuclear and antihistone antibodies, additional types of antibody, such as antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies and anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies, have been reported in association with minocycline and tumor necrosis factor inhibitor therapy. Clinical features of drug-related lupus usually consist of constitutional symptoms, arthralgias, arthritis, myalgias and serositis, although cutaneous manifestations have been reported in association with the use of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors. Typically, clinical features resolve with discontinuation of the medication, although antibodies can persist for months or years. Arthralgias and inflammatory arthritis have also been reported in association with the use of aromatase inhibitors and other biologic agents such as interleukins and interferons. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To assess the reliability and concurrent validity of the Medication Adherence Self-report Inventory (MASRI) when used in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), to investigate the predictive validity of the MASRI using pharmacy refill information as the criterion standard, and to propose a sensible approach to the screening for nonadherence in a clinical setting. METHODS: Adherence to 2 medications (hydroxychloroquine and prednisone) was measured in 55 patients using the MASRI, pill counts, and physician ratings (MD scale). Adherence based on pharmacy refill information served as a criterion standard with nonadherence defined as adherence rates <80%. To determine test-rest reliability of the MASRI, 20 patients completed the measure twice within a 2-week period. RESULTS: Using pharmacy information, 39% of the patients were nonadherent to prednisone and 51% to hydroxychloroquine. The MASRI had acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha 0.7) and good reliability. Irrespective of the drug assessed, MASRI ratings were moderately correlated with patient adherence (pharmacy), supporting the concurrent validity of the MASRI. The combination of adherence estimation by MD scale rating at <85% and by MASRI at <90% was 87% sensitive and 86% specific for identifying patients who were nonadherent to prednisone. These cutoff values also appeared suitable for identifying nonadherence to hydroxychloroquine. CONCLUSION: The MASRI is a reliable measure of adherence to medications in SLE. The measure has concurrent and predictive validity. When combined with the MD scale, the MASRI appears to be a useful screening tool for nonadherence in patients with SLE that could be suitable for clinical practice. 相似文献
