Randomize klinik çalışmalarda biyolojik ilaçlar ve tofacitinib ile tedavi edilen kronik inflamatuar artritli hastalardaki lipid profili değişiklikleri: Bir sistematik derleme ve meta analiz

Systemic inflammation, reflected by high levels of C-reactive protein and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, the most important cause of death in RA and SpA. Studies with TNF antagonists have given contradictory results on cardiovascular risk. As such, this systemic literature search aimed to analyse lipid changes in RA and SpA subjects treated with biologics or tofacitinib in randomized clinical trials.

Safety profile of protein kinase inhibitors in rheumatoid arthritis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Ann Rheum Dis April 2013; doi:10.1136/annrheumdis-2012-203116

Salgado and colleagues conducted a systematic literature review of the safety profiles of protein kinase inhibitors (PKis) used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Additionally, the study aims included identification of any class and molecule-related target and off-target adverse events. Data from 11,858 patients across 41 publications (phase 2 and 3 studies and two pooled analyses) were analysed. As well as published trials of PKi in RA, studies on healthy individuals and patients w...
