Is subclinical ultrasound synovitis in a particular joint associated with ultrasound evidence of bone erosions in that same joint in rheumatoid patients in clinical remission?
A higher prevalence of PD signal was found in the joints where bone erosions were detected. This is the first study providing evidence supporting the association between US bone erosions and the persistence of subclinical inflammation in RA patients in clinical remission.
Despite similar serum hormone levels, more AR expression in cremaster muscles associated with undescended testis might represent evidence of being subjected to a lesser degree of androgenic effects.
