[Ontogenetic forms of rheumatoid arthritis and behavioral type A.].

Disease onset and type A behavioral pattern (TABP) are important characteristics of the clinical manifestations of chronic diseases. The aim of this work is to study the prevalence and role of TABP in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with the onset of the disease at different periods of ontogenesis. 82 patients were examined, which were divided into groups depending on the age of RA onset.

[Features of the ontogenetic forms of rheumatoid arthritis associated with autoimmune thyroiditis.].

Unlabelled: Ontogenetic debut of diseases can determine clinico-pathogenetic differences in disease variants. The aim of the study was to determine the clinical and laboratory features of the variants of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) associated with autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) in patients with various ontogenetic debut of the disease. A total of 53 patients with a combination of RA and AIT (mean age 63,92±1,6 years, 92% of patients - women, duration of rheumatoid arthritis - 10,0±1,11 years, disease activity on the DAS28 scale - 5,67±0,14 points).
