Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common and treatable cause of heart failure (HF), but ischemic evaluation is often overlooked when evaluating patients with new-onset HF. Here, we sought to discern demographic and clinical predictors of ischemic workup in patients with newly diagnosed HF.

Objective: Autoantibodies serve as essential clinical biomarkers and may indicate etiological mechanisms in rheumatic diseases. In light of the increasing knowledge concerning the diversity and biologic implications of anti-citrullinated peptide/protein antibodies (ACPAs), we have re-evaluated the association between the ACPA response and the HLA-DRB1 allelic groups, known to represent a major genetic risk factor for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: We explored a collection of 4,392 well-characterized incident patients with RA of White European descent from the Epidemiological Investigation of Rheumatoid Arthritis (EIRA) new-onset RA study, as well as 1,199 cases of patients with RA of Southeast Asian origin from the Malaysian EIRA study.
