Article Synopsis
- Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common inflammatory arthritis affecting about 1% of the global population, with treatments targeting proinflammatory cytokines showing effectiveness but potential cardiovascular side effects.
- The study aimed to assess the impact of anti-TNF-α and anti-IL-6 treatments on heart function and related biomarkers compared to methotrexate users and healthy controls.
- Results indicated that while patients on biologics displayed low disease activity and normal heart function, biomarkers related to heart injury were still elevated, suggesting ongoing heart damage in RA patients despite treatment.
Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to assess short-term outcomes of surgical treatment of pancreatic cystic tumors (PCTs).
Material And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 46 patients (31 women and 15 men) who had undergone surgery for pancreatic cystic tumors in our department.
