Using FibroScan to Assess for the Development of Liver Fibrosis in Patients With Arthritis on Methotrexate: A Single-center Experience

Saman Darabian et al.

Summary: This study investigated the association between cumulative methotrexate (MTX) intake and liver fibrosis development using noninvasive transient elastography (FibroScan). The results showed no significant correlation between cumulative MTX dosage and liver stiffness, even at high doses of MTX. However, there was a significant correlation between body mass index (BMI) and FibroScan score.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in inflammatory arthritis: Relationship with cardiovascular risk

Nuria Barbarroja et al.

Summary: Liver disease is a significant cause of increased morbidity and mortality worldwide. Inflammation and the accumulation of fat in the liver can lead to hepatic damage, progressing to fibrosis and eventually cirrhosis, which are closely associated with cardiovascular disease. Patients with inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis have a higher risk of liver disease compared to the general population, possibly due to chronic inflammation, autoimmunity, treatments, and metabolic deregulation.

Prevalence of liver fibrosis by Fibroscan in patients on long-term methotrexate therapy for rheumatoid arthritis

Prashant Bafna et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess liver fibrosis in patients with RA following long-term MTX therapy, and found an association between increased liver stiffness and MTX cumulative dose. The results showed a significant correlation between Fibroscan-detected liver stiffness and cumulative MTX dose.

Pathogenic Role of Circulating Citrullinated Antigens and Anti-Cyclic Monoclonal Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Pureun Won et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that monoclonal antibody 12G1 can directly detect citrullinated proteins in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) target tissue and sera, indicating its potential in arthritis induction. 12G1 may be useful for diagnosing RA, including seronegative RA, and could help to understand the pathophysiological role of citrullination in RA.
