Rheumatoid sarcopenia: loss of skeletal muscle strength and mass in rheumatoid arthritis

Joshua. L. L. Bennett et al.

Summary: Sarcopenia, characterized by the loss of skeletal muscle strength and mass, is commonly associated with rheumatoid arthritis. This review discusses the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and identification of rheumatoid sarcopenia, as well as the therapeutic roles of physical activity, nutrition, and pharmacotherapy. Rheumatoid sarcopenia is highly prevalent (>= 25%) in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis and is associated with increased risk of falls, fractures, and physical disability.

Sarcopenia and Nutrition in Elderly Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study to Determine Prevalence and Risk Factors

Laura Cano-Garcia et al.

Summary: The study aimed to describe the prevalence of sarcopenia in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients aged =65 years and identify the associated risk factors. The results showed that patients with RA had lower muscle mass and higher adiposity, especially in the central area. Male patients, those with longer disease duration, and poor nutritional status were more likely to develop sarcopenia.

Analysis of comorbidity in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease: a nested case-cohort study

Natalia Mena-Vazquez et al.

Summary: The study aimed to describe comorbid conditions in patients with rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) and analyze factors associated with multimorbidity. The results showed that comorbid conditions were more frequent in RA-ILD patients compared to those with RA but not ILD. Age, inflammatory markers, and lung function were found to be associated with multimorbidity.

Inflammatory profile of incident cases of late-onset compared with young-onset rheumatoid arthritis: A nested cohort study

Natalia Mena-Vazquez et al.

Summary: Patients with late-onset rheumatoid arthritis (LORA) have poorer control of inflammation after diagnosis and more comorbidities compared to patients with young-onset rheumatoid arthritis (YORA) and healthy controls.

A nuclear factor kappa B reporter cell line used to evaluate ex vivo the net inflammatory effect of plasma samples from patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, or COVID-19

Lelia Wagner et al.

Summary: This study used a cell-based assay to investigate the NF-kappa B activation in plasma samples from patients with different inflammatory conditions and healthy volunteers. The results showed a moderate correlation between CRP levels and NF-kappa B activation, with COVID-19 patients exhibiting the most significant activation compared to other conditions.

Cumulative inflammatory burden and obesity as determinants of insulin resistance in patients with established rheumatoid arthritis: cross-sectional study

Sara Manrique-Arija et al.

Summary: In patients with well-controlled, established RA, IR is mainly associated with poorer control of inflammation from diagnosis and with obesity, specifically total fat mass.

Association between Malnutrition and Quality of Life in Elderly Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Wojciech Tanski et al.

Summary: Rheumatoid arthritis is a progressive joint disease that can affect multiple organs in addition to causing joint damage. Elderly patients with RA often experience pain, fatigue, mood disorders, and other complications, which can significantly impact their quality of life. Malnutrition can worsen frailty, cognitive function, and daily functioning in these patients. Frailty is a major factor contributing to poorer quality of life in elderly RA patients.
