Arterial wall inflammation is increased in rheumatoid arthritis compared with osteoarthritis, as a marker of early atherosclerosis
Abstract
RA is associated with higher risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease. Ongoing systemic inflammation is presumed to accelerate atherosclerosis by increasing inflammation in the arterial wall. However, evidence supporting this hypothesis is limited. We aimed to investigate arterial wall inflammation in RA vs OA, and its association with markers of inflammation and CV risk factors.18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET combined with CT (18F-FDG-PET/CT) was...
