Multilevel factors predict medication adherence in rheumatoid arthritis: a 6-month cohort study

Alejandro Balsa et al.

Summary: In patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the prevalence of treatment adherence is 59.1%, and is influenced by factors such as treatment prescribed, patient perception of treatment, receipt of information on treatment adaptation, and physician perception of patient trust. Psychological, communicational, and logistic factors have a greater impact on treatment adherence in RA than sociodemographic or clinical factors.

Association of Polygenic Risk Scores With Radiographic Progression in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

Suguru Honda et al.

Summary: This study constructed a polygenic risk score using GWAS data and found that it is associated with the severity of radiographic progression in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The polygenic risk score is an independent risk factor for severe radiographic progression.

DNA methylation biomarkers in colorectal cancer: Clinical applications for precision medicine

Nayeralsadat Fatemi et al.

Summary: Colorectal cancer, the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide, is closely associated with epigenetic changes such as DNA methylation. Studies have shown that DNA methylation markers have high accuracy and reproducibility in noninvasive biosamples, making them promising for early diagnosis and personalized treatment of CRC. Further research and development of methylation biomarkers and detection methods are crucial for CRC diagnosis.

Large-scale meta-analysis across East Asian and European populations updated genetic architecture and variant-driven biology of rheumatoid arthritis, identifying 11 novel susceptibility loci

Eunji Ha et al.

Summary: A large trans-ancestral meta-analysis identified 11 new susceptibility loci for RA, explaining a significant portion of the heritability in East Asians and Europeans, and confirmed 71 known non-HLA susceptibility loci. The study also highlighted the importance of CD4(+) T-cell activation and potential non-immune organs in RA pathogenesis, providing insights into genetic etiology and variant-driven RA pathogenesis.

Epigenome association study for DNA methylation biomarkers in buccal and monocyte cells for female rheumatoid arthritis

Gary Craig et al.

Summary: Genetics plays a smaller role than previously assumed in rheumatoid arthritis, with environmental factors having a significant impact on epigenetics associated with disease onset. Epigenetic biomarkers for RA were found to be cell type specific, with similar findings across different racial backgrounds. This suggests that epigenetic diagnosis for RA susceptibility is feasible and may lead to improvements in clinical management and preventative medicine considerations.

Prediction of response of methotrexate in patients with rheumatoid arthritis using serum lipidomics

Mateusz Maciejewski et al.

Summary: Methotrexate is a common first-line treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, but it is ineffective for a significant portion of patients, with no reliable way to predict individual responses. Statistical models based on serum lipid levels were explored for predicting methotrexate response in patients, but clinical covariates alone outperformed lipid-based models in predicting response. Serum lipid profiles at pre-treatment or early-treatment time points are unlikely to be predictive of methotrexate response by 6 months in a way that would be useful for clinical management of rheumatoid arthritis.

Epigenome-wide association study of kidney function identifies trans-ethnic and ethnic-specific loci

Charles E. Breeze et al.

Summary: This study identified trans-ethnic and ethnic-specific differentially methylated positions associated with eGFR, showing enrichment of identified DMPs in regulatory elements in kidney tissue and pathways related to kidney development. These findings shed light on epigenetic mechanisms associated with kidney function, bridging the gap between population-specific eGFR-associated DNAm and tissue-specific regulatory context.
