Perception of Illness Turkish Validity and Reliability Study

Perception of Disease

In chronic diseases such as rheumatic diseases, it is important to direct the treatment of the disease and to evaluate the disease perception in terms of the course of the disease. As a result of this study, this questionnaire, which will help us gain information about the perception of the disease specific to rheumatic diseases, will be translated into Turkish.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

Observational registry to assess the longer-term risk of serious infections and malignancies reported with TNFα-blocker therapy, as well as the longer-term risk of cardiovascular and thromboembolic events in adult Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) patients treated with Cimzia® as compared to non-biologic DMARD-treated controls.

Vertebral Fracture and Osteonecrosis Associated With High-dose Glucocorticoid

Vertebral FractureOsteonecrosis1 more

Osteoporotic vertebral fracture (VF) and osteonecrosis of the femoral head (OFH) are major concerns in patients with systemic rheumatic diseases treated with high-dose glucocorticoids (GCs). The investigators examined and compared the incidence and risk factors of VF with those of OFH in patients who had recently received high-dose GC therapy to clarify the relationship between these two complications.

Selection of Patients With Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism Requiring Management During the COVID-19...

Covid19Inflammatory Rheumatism3 more

The project proposes to evaluate a strategy for prioritizing teleconsultation for patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases during the COVID-19 pandemia. This selection will be done through telephone contact by medical students, supervised by residents and rheumatologists on a patient database. The other objectives are to assess the impact of the pandemia on the physical and mental health of patients classified as being at risk

Vaccination Against SARS-Cov2 (COVID-19) in Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism and Factors Determining...

Rheumatoid ArthritisSpondyloarthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthritis (ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis mainly) are chronic inflammatory rheumatism (RIC), frequently onset in young adults. The prevalence is respectively 0.3 to 0.8% and 0.4%. or about 600,000 people. The "basic" treatments (DMARDs), essential to control the progression of the disease, are classified into csDMARDs (chemical), the first of which is methotrexate, or bDMARDs (biological). These treatments are immunomodulators and there is an increased risk of severe infection under these therapies. Several vaccinations are therefore recommended by learned societies in patients receiving these treatments, in order to prevent certain infectious risks.In the current pandemic context, the vaccination of these patients against SARS-Cov2 is a major issue in their management and is recommended by the French society of rheumatology. However, many patients express doubts about this vaccination or refuse it. The factors associated with the vaccination will are not known. Better identifying them would make it possible to adapt the information to be given to our patients to promote their adherence.

The Genetic Basis of Acquired Heart Disease in Africa

Rheumatic Heart DiseaseRheumatic Fever2 more

Background: - An acquired heart disease is one that a person gets after they are born. Two of these are rheumatic heart disease (RHD) and endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF). They are found more commonly in people who live in Africa than in other places in the world. Researchers want to learn more about these diseases. They especially want to know what role genes and other factors play in them. Objective: - To identify genetic risk factors for RHD and EMF in sub-Saharan Africa. Eligibility: Children and adults with RHD or EMF. Healthy volunteers over age 10. Design: Participants will come from existing study groups in Uganda and Nigeria. Participants may be required to provide a sample of their DNA. They will do this with either a blood or saliva sample or a swab of the mouth. Collected samples will be labeled with a code and sent to a lab in the United States for analysis. Remaining portions of participants samples will be stored for an unlimited period of time. They may be used in future studies. Some genetic and health information from participants might be placed into one or more scientific databases. Participant names and identifying information will be kept private. But there is a small chance someone could trace them from their genetic information.

Rheumatic Diseases and Computer Use

Rheumatoid ArthritisFibromyalgia1 more

Computers allow individuals to engage in economic, social, and entertainment activities. Despite the many benefits of computer use, many individuals with rheumatic diseases may have difficulty using a computer. However, currently there is almost no information on the problems individuals with rheumatic diseases experience using a computer. Baseline information on the types of problems experienced by individuals with rheumatic diseases as well as the magnitude of those problems is needed before methods can be developed to intervene and remediate them. In this study we will develop and administer to a representative sample of patients with rheumatic diseases a survey which will examine the type and magnitude of computer problems experienced by those with rheumatic diseases. The goal of this study is to complete a needs assessment on the problems experienced by those with rheumatic diseases during computer use. This assessment will lay the groundwork for the development of outcome measures and interventions to improve computer use for individuals with rheumatic diseases. In the future it will assist individuals with rheumatic diseases to be able to use computers more comfortably and efficiently.
