Objectives
The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate the superiority of platelet-rich plasma injections in treating facet joint syndrome, compared to corticosteroid injections. Secondary objectives were to assess the efficacy of PRP compared to CTC on pain, functional impact, tolerance, and healthcare utilization following the initial infiltrative management.
Methods
Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive intra-articular injections into the painful facet joints with either PRP or CTC under radiographic guidance. The primary outcome measure was a 50% improvement in the NRS (from 0 to 10) for spontaneous lumbar pain at 6 months. Study design: Superiority, controlled, randomized (1:1), prospective, double-blind study.
Results
A total of 76 patients were included, at 6 months, 6 patients in the PRP group and 5 in the CTC group showed a 50% improvement in spontaneous NRS. No statistically significant differences were found in pain at 3, 6, or 12 months. Regarding functional evaluation, a statistically significant difference was observed in the PRP group at 3 months according to the ODI. No significant differences were found between groups in terms of satisfaction. Four patients experienced transient adverse effects, only 1 in the PRP group.
Conclusion
In patients with facet joint syndrome, PRP injections did not demonstrate superiority over CTC injections in terms of pain relief or clinically significant functional improvement at 6 months. These results do not support the use of PRP injections for facet joint syndrome.

Objectives
We performed next generation sequencing in two affected-sibling pairs of atypical femur fractures (AFF) and in unrelated cases of AFF to identify genetic variants of bisphosphonates (BP)-associated AFF.
Methods
A whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed in two sisters with BP-associated AFF and their healthy brother naïve to BP treatment (family A). After bioinformatic filtering, the intrafamilial segregation was analysed. Then, we performed targeted sequencing of 62 genes, including 36 genes containing variants predicted to be damaging and segregating with the phenotype in both sisters of the family A, and 26 candidate genes for osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), hypophosphatasia and the mevalonate pathway. The targeted sequencing was performed on the family A, and on 47 unrelated participants and another affected sibling pair (family B) from the Quebec AFF Registry. 100 healthy controls recruited in same geographic area than patients were genotyped for rare variants.
Results
Sixty-three rare and deleterious variants were detected by the WES and shared by the two affected sisters of the family A. Among those variants, a rare likely pathogenic variant (p.Leu3fs) of the WNT1 gene, already linked to OI and early onset osteoporosis, was also shared by a third individual, an unrelated case with BP-associated AFF. The pair of siblings of family B carried a novel variant (p.Glu1323fs) in the COL1A2 gene, linked to OI. One unrelated case had a novel variant in the FDFT1 gene, involved in the mevalonate pathway. These rare variants were not found in 100 healthy controls.
Conclusion
Some BP-associated AFFs may occur in the setting of clinically undiagnosed underlying genetic disorders predisposing to osteoporosis and fractures, such as OI.

Gout, one of the most prevalent inflammatory arthropathies, arises from hyperuricemia and is increasingly recognized as a condition extending beyond the joints. Hyperuricemia, the core risk factor for gout, is also an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), complications, and mortality. Multiple conditions that predispose to gout and hyperuricemia, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease (CKD), also elevate the risk of atherosclerosis, the central contributor to CVD and the leading cause of mortality in Western societies. The association between gout and atherosclerosis highlights the need for deeper understanding of causal links between these conditions. Because evidence remains insufficient to support urate-lowering therapies for improving cardiovascular outcomes, attention has shifted to other mechanisms connecting gout and atherosclerosis. Given the lack of convincing data for clinically significant monosodium urate crystal (MSUc) deposition in atherosclerotic plaques, this review focuses on the hypothesis that expansion of local articular to systemic inflammation, driven by macrophage activation by MSUc, is the primary mechanism accelerating atherosclerosis in gout. Mechanistically, we explore how epigenetic regulators normally restrain MSU-induced local inflammation, thereby protecting against atherosclerosis. We further discuss how aging-related somatic mutations in genes involved in clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) disrupt this protection, resulting in heightened systemic inflammation and atherosclerosis in patients with gout.

To describe the baseline characteristics of patients enrolled in the TRANSLATE2 cohort (NCT04227535), a national, multicenter, prospective case-control study designed to investigate the genetic and non-genetic determinants of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods
Cases with RA-ILD and RA controls without ILD were consecutively included in TRANSLATE2 with a 5-year prospective follow-up. All participants fulfilled the ACR/EULAR 2010 classification criteria for RA. ILD presence or absence was confirmed for every participant by chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT). Baseline demographic and clinical data were collected. Blood samples were collected at enrollment for centralized biobanking of DNA, RNA, and serum to support future genetic and biomarker studies. For ILD cases, chest HRCT scans were centrally reviewed to determine HRCT pattern. For the current study, associations with ILD were tested using univariable and multivariable logistic regression models.
Results
Among the 506 patients included (275 RA-ILD, 231 RA-noILD), RA-ILD cases were more frequently male (48.4% vs. 29.9%), older at enrollment (66.6 [9.9] vs. 58.5 [13.2] years) and older at RA onset (52.2 [14.7] vs. 45.8 [14.3] years). ILD was independently associated with male sex (OR 1.82; 95% CI 1.06, 3.14) and older age at RA onset (OR per 10 years 1.28; 95% CI 1.10,1.50). For ILD cases, the most frequent HRCT patterns were definite for usual interstitial pneumonia (39.3%) and non-specific interstitial pneumonia (17.8%). At enrollment, respiratory symptoms were observed in 67.3% with a mean forced vital capacity % predicted of 87.6% (21.7) and a mean diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide % predicted of 58.4% (18.8).
Conclusion
The TRANSLATE2 cohort provides a comprehensive and deeply phenotyped dataset that offers a unique opportunity to investigate the genetic architecture, risk factors, and natural history of RA-ILD.

Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are effective treatments for autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs). However, concomitant use of JAK inhibitors with CYP enzyme inhibitors or OAT3 inhibitors can lead to drug-drug interactions. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the concomitant use of CYP and OAT3 inhibitors on discontinuation of treatment and infectious complications in patients treated with JAK inhibitors.
Methods
Using the National Health Insurance Research Database, this retrospective cohort study included patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and atopic dermatitis treated with JAK inhibitors in 2021–2023. The risks of discontinuation of treatment and infectious complications were evaluated using Cox proportional hazards models, adjusted for age, gender, other infectious and concomitant use of steroids or methotrexate.
Results
Among 7591 patients, concomitant use of strong CYP3A4, or CYP2C19 inhibitors increased the risk of treatment discontinuation for tofacitinib and baricitinib from 41% to 144%. The risk of overall infectious complications also increased when tofacitinib was used concomitantly with strong CYP2C19 inhibitors. The risk of pneumonia was further increased by concomitant use of strong CYP2C19 inhibitors with all JAK inhibitors and CYP3A4 inhibitors with tofacitinib. The risk of urinary tract infection was increased by concomitant use of strong CYP2C19 inhibitors when used with tofacitinib, or baricitinib.
Conclusions
Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4, and CYP2C19 inhibitors with JAK inhibitors significantly increases the risk of discontinuation of treatment and infectious complications in patients with AIRDs. Careful consideration of drug-drug interactions is necessary when prescribing JAK inhibitors to optimize treatment persistence and minimize adverse events.

The skeleton is able to secrete hormones and mediate endocrine functions. Particularly, the fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has received considerable attention for its unique phosphaturic properties, raising the bone to the status of an essential endocrine regulator. Excess in circulating levels of FGF23, not so surprisingly, then associated to mineral imbalance, in hereditary/acquired mineral and skeletal disorders. A key player, FGF23 excess precedes mineral and skeletal disturbances. However, unexpected effects have been described in the recent years. Various demonstrations have been made that FGF23 is directly regulated by non-mineral stress, including: inflammation, iron deficiency, and glycolysis. In turn, an emerging body of research shows association and causality between FGF23 and the cardiovascular system at large, from the iron metabolism to erythropoiesis, and to the cardiac muscle. This review summarizes canonical and novel effects of FGF23. FGF23 cleavage generates C-terminal peptides that also mediate biological functions. In aggregate, FGF23 measurements should be considered for larger application, as its excess can precede hypophosphatemia, explain hypophosphatemia or resistance to phosphate loading, and possibly predict cardiovascular progression in a wide range of uremic and non-uremic conditions.
