Tight Control and Radiological Progression: The Radiographic Outcomes of the TICOPA Study.

Objective: The Tight Control of Psoriatic Arthritis (TICOPA) study was the first to undertake the treat-to-target approach in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Our aim was to further investigate the radiographic changes in the TICOPA study.

Methods: The TICOPA trial recruited patients with early treatment-naïve PsA.

The impact of psoriatic arthritis on quality of life: a systematic review.

Background: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory condition that can affect individuals of all ages. Patients may experience a range of physical and psychological issues.

Objective: To examine the impact of PsA on an individual's quality of life (QoL) and physical function.

Psoriatic Arthritis Priority Setting Partnership: patient- and clinician-informed considerations for future UK health service delivery.

Objectives: Little is known about the ideal service delivery model and shortcomings in patient experiences in the NHS for patients with Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA). To identify unmet needs perceived within the current health service delivery model for PsA from the UK Psoriatic Arthritis Priority Setting Partnership (PsA PSP).

Methods: An online survey was conducted in 2020 and distributed to people with PsA, their carers and clinicians to identify research priorities in PsA.

The value of axillary, facial, occipital, subclavian and common carotid arteries ultrasound in the diagnosis of giant cell arteritis.

Objective: To assess the diagnostic value for GCA in adding the axillary arteries (AX) to the temporal artery (TA) ultrasound, particularly in patients with a cranial phenotype of the disease; and to investigate the utility of facial (FA), occipital (OC), subclavian (SC) and common carotid (CC) ultrasound in patients with suspected GCA.

Methods: Patients with new-onset GCA and a positive ultrasound of the TA, AX, FA, OC, SC or CC, followed at the rheumatology departments of two academic centres, were retrospectively included.

Results: Two hundred and thirty patients were assessed.

Lifestyle Modifications and Nonpharmacologic Interventions to Improve Outcomes in Psoriatic Arthritis: A Systematic Review.

Purpose: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a multisystem inflammatory disorder associated with significant mortality and morbidity, including functional impairment and psychological disability. Although evidence-based treatment recommendations are available for the use of drug treatments in PsA, there is little guidance for health professionals on nonpharmacologic and psychological interventions that may be useful in PsA. The objective of this systematic review (SR) was to identify how lifestyle modifications and the use of nonpharmacologic and psychological interventions may improve the outcomes of patients with PsA.

ATM Regulates Differentiation of Myofibroblastic Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts and Can Be Targeted to Overcome Immunotherapy Resistance.

Unlabelled: Myofibroblastic cancer-associated fibroblast (myoCAF)-rich tumors generally contain few T cells and respond poorly to immune-checkpoint blockade. Although myoCAFs are associated with poor outcome in most solid tumors, the molecular mechanisms regulating myoCAF accumulation remain unclear, limiting the potential for therapeutic intervention. Here, we identify ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) as a central regulator of the myoCAF phenotype.
