Because immunometabolism is involved in the pathogenesis of SLE, the researchers aimed to determine whether repurposing metformin could control the immunometabolic processes in patients with systemic lupus...
An analysis of electronic health records from 56 million adults taking at least one prescription for a TNF-blocking agent or methotrexate showed promise for reducing the risk of Alzheimer disease. Find out...
In a new study, researchers assessed the effects of a 3-month, RA-tailored exercise program among patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Read more about the programs and results here.
