2308. Level of glial cell derived neurotrophic factor in the blood plasma of rheumatoid arthritis patients and its relationship with alexithymia.
Glial cell derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has an important role in the pathogenetic mechanisms and clinical manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Alexithymia is associated with a severe clinical course and worse prognosis, while the relationship between alexithymia and GDNF in RA patients has not been investigated before. The aims of the study were to investigate the GDNF level in blood plasma in RA patients depending on the presence of alexithymia and to evaluate the relationship of GDNF level with clinical manifestation and quality of life.

Rapidly destructive coxopathy (RDC) is a rare type of coxarthritis marked by swift deterioration of the hip joint. Although its cause remains unclear, several pathophysiological mechanisms are proposed. To comprehensively analyze this poorly understood condition, a literature search was conducted focusing on associations of bilateral RDC and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The problem of long-standing RA, bilateral RDC with a febrile episode that preceded a rapid decline in mobility and severe hip pain, with radiological assessment confirmed bilateral hip destruction, was presented. Rapidly destructive coxopathy, especially when linked to RA, poses diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Our review confirmed by the clinical picture emphasizes the need for vigilance in RA patients with hip involvement and calls for further research to understand RDC's mechanisms and enhance clinical care.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and potential joint damage. Patients with RA are at high risk of developing psychiatric morbidity; it is important to recognize these psychiatric manifestations. The relationship between psychiatric symptoms and RA is complex and can involve various factors, including the impact of chronic pain, inflammation, medications, and the overall burden of managing a chronic illness.Aim of the study was to systematically investigate and analyze the patterns and prevalence of psychiatric morbidity among individuals diagnosed with RA, with the aim of identifying common mental health conditions, understanding the interplay between RA and psychiatric disorders, and providing valuable insights for improved holistic patient care.

Fracture of the proximal femur is common in elderly patients, in fact threatening their lives. Age-related sarcopenia may be involved in the imbalance resulting in the injury. Handy and readily accessible biochemical tests would be useful to assess the musculoskeletal system condition in daily practice. The aim of the study was to determine whether there is any relation between muscle decay and fracture of the proximal femur and to assess bone quality in elderly patients.

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is nowadays considered as the most effective treatment option for end-stage hip osteoarthritis (OA) and one of the most successful orthopedic procedures. Precise reproduction of the center of rotation (COR) is among the most important aspects of recreating native hip biomechanics after THA as it is strictly related to muscle tension and force distribution within the hip joint. Both vertical and horizontal shift in cup positioning and COR restoration are commonly observed radiological signs corresponding with lesser functional outcome. The aim of this study was to assess whether the superior border of the native acetabulum morphology has an impact on cup positioning and COR restoration in patients undergoing THA as treatment of primary OA of the hip.

There are five TNF inhibitors (TNFis), whose structure and signalling differ. An individual patient with a rheumatic disease may respond to one TNFi but not to another. In addition, 30-40% of patients with rheumatic diseases may respond inadequately to TNFis. The downstream signalling of the various TNFis may determine their clinical efficacy. Several reports have shown that the different TNFis exhibited differential effects on Th17 cells. We analysed the effects of the various TNFis on IL-17A expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with rheumatic diseases, in order to evaluate the possibility of predicting responses in an ex vivo setting.
