A class of drugs widely used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases might increase the risk of herpes, particularly among older adults and those who also take steroids
However, although the findings, which appear in the February 18 edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association, could raise awareness of this potential complication between doctors and patients, some experts say that is unlikely to change the way used drugs.
"We have changed the lives of people with the use of these drugs against tumor necrosis factor. People confined to their homes can now lead a relatively normal life," said Dr. Guy Fiocco, associate professor of internal medicine of the College Medical Center Health Sciences Texas A & M and director of rheumatology of the Scott & White Hospital in Temple. "This modest increase in risk is not going to prevent the medicine prescribed. Could make us more aware."
The increased risk did not reach statistical significance and, as Fiocco, rheumatoid arthritis itself probably increases the risk of herpes zoster, which takes steroids as many people who have the disease.
Although the relationship between TNF blockers and bacterial infections are relatively well-established relationships with viral infections is less clear.

Rheumatoid Arthritis, Worse In Women ?
It seems indeed that women suffer more from rheumatoid arthritis than men.
These Finnish researchers who had the idea to look at the association between gender and measures, treatment and clinical characteristics of this disease. They looked to do what was happening at more than 6 000 patients and in 25 different countries.
In general, women report more pain symptoms and greater disability (especially at work) than men. Among the patients studied, 79% were women, 90% Caucasian and the average age was 57 years. Patients were evaluated by a doctor and had to answer a questionnaire about their condition.
Thus, it was found that women complained more of this disease than men. This was particularly noted in the tabulation of results of the questionnaire: for parameters such as pain, depression and other health indicators.
There are obvious differences between the sexes regarding the prevalence, age of onset and the production of antibodies.

Septic Arthritis: How To Relieve The Joint Infection ?
The arthritis s septic joint infections are caused by the presence of an infectious agent within one or more joints. It is a disease for which a visit to the rheumatologist.
Infection of the joint can result from direct inoculation microbial articular or wound at the intra-articular injection of steroids, sometimes despite aseptic precautions. Much more rarely, infection of the joint can spread from an infected bone neighbor or skin. Infection can also occur through blood and can affect only one joint.
Clinical signs appear in most cases a very brutal: the joint achievement is particularly painful, and will lead to a gene for mobility and a marked impotence in arthritis of the lower limbs. The affected joint will be very swollen, not red, and appear as hot when the key.
When infection complicates infiltration, the signs are entangled with those of the underlying disease, which may be the cause of delayed diagnosis. In all cases, the treatment of septic arthritis is a medical emergency.
This treatment will include antibiotics to combat adapted seed when it is isolated. Otherwise, if the seed is not isolated, it will shift more towards active antibiotics on the different types of bacteria.
This treatment will be extended for several weeks until clinical signs disappear. Finally, the evacuation of the effusion by puncture or through a washing will rid the articulation of the toxic substances it contains. Moreover, this drain will allow a final diagnosis on the effectiveness of treatment by analyzing the liquid to be sterilized.

New Drug Target For Treating Arthritis
British research conducted under a European project have highlighted the role of antibodies produced by the joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis.New drug target for treating arthritis
The role of antibodies in the disease process would explain why the drugs suppressing the B cells, producing antibodies, fail to curb the disease. So far ACPA antibodies were associated to a more severe form of maladie.
People with rheumatoid arthritis produce an antibody called ACPA promoting the development of the disease. The enzyme cytidine deaminase (AID or protein) is cited as potential target for new treatments because the structures containing the AID are surrounded by B cells producing antibodies.
Rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune disease that attacks the joints by inflammatory and destructive, currently has no known cure.
This study is the result of a five-year work on the project Innochem on the development of new therapeutic strategies against autoimmunity and chronic inflammation, funded by the European Union.

The trend is most of the time to onset of cardiac complications it is necessary therefore to be feared. It is a rheumatic carditis.
Reactive arthritis are the result of a reaction to infection, serving outside the joint and due to infection by certain bacteria like Enterobacteriaceae whose transmission is usually through diet or an infection of the genital .
Psoriatic arthritis is characterized by an impairment of the inflammatory type of joints associated with psoriasis. There are different forms of psoriatic arthritis.
The onset disease concerns all children under four years. This is a symmetric polyarthritis associated with hyperthermia (fever) and related lymphadenopathy (lymph nodes) increased in volume.
