The Impact of Interleukin-17 Inhibitors on Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Psoriasis or Psoriatic Arthritis Patients Naive to Biologic Agents: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

The objective of this systematic review is to determine the effects of IL-17 inhibitors on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with either psoriasis (PsO) or psoriatic arthritis (PsA). A systematic literature search in three databases (Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for Randomized Controlled Trials) was conducted on December 7, 2022 for randomized controlled trials of patients with PsO/PsA treated with IL-17 inhibitors that reported confirmed MACEs. Two reviewers screened titles and abstracts and identified papers for full-text review.

Impact of the pattern of interstitial lung disease on mortality in rheumatoid arthritis: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis.

Objective: An important extra-articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is interstitial lung disease (ILD). The relationship between the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern and mortality in patients with RA is unclear. The purpose of this study was to complete a systematic literature review and meta-analysis on the association between RA-ILD pattern and mortality risk.

Clopidogrel-Associated Migratory Inflammatory Polyarthritis.

BACKGROUND Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet medication that plays an important role in primary management and secondary prevention of thrombotic vascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome. It is generally well tolerated by most patients, but rare adverse effects such as inflammatory arthritis has been noted. A very few cases of migratory polyarthritis secondary to clopidogrel have been reported in the literature.
