Megjegyzések:	Susceptibility to and outcome for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been associated with particular HLA-DR alleles, but these alleles vary among ethnic groups and geographic areas. The frequency of HLA-DR1 (HLA-DRB10101, DRB10102) and HLA-DR4 (DRB10401, DRB10404) alleles is elevated among Caucasian patients with RA. We studied a northeastern Hungarian population of RA patients to determine the frequency of HLA-DR1 and HLA-DR4 phenotypes in this population and to compare it with healthy control subjects, as well as to investigate whether the presence of these alleles could be a marker for RA. We performed HLA-DRB1 genotyping (DRB101-DRB116) in 83 RA patients and 55 healthy controls using polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP). In the case of HLA-DR1- or HLA-DR4-positive patients, the DR1 and DR4 subtypes were also determined. The frequency of HLA-DR4 alleles was significantly higher in RA patients than in controls (31.3 vs. 10.9%; P <.05). HLA-DR1, in particular, tended to be more frequent in patients than in controls (32.5 vs. 18.1%). Among the HLA-DR4 subtypes, DRB10401 and DRB10404 were the most common alleles found in both groups. However, no significant differences were seen in the frequency of HLA-DRB10401 and HLA-DRB10404 between RA patients and controls. In contrast, HLA-DRB10405 and HLA-DRB10408 were significantly more common in RA patients than in control subjects. Among HLA-DR1 subtypes, the DRB10101 allele was most commonly detected, but HLA-DRB10101 as well as DRB10102 and DRB10105 were similarly frequent in RA patients and controls. HLA-DR12 was more common among controls than in RA patients (18.1 vs. 0%; P <.05). Our results generally agree with the findings in other Caucasian populations. Nonetheless, we found differences in the frequency of HLA-DR1 and HLA-DR4 subtypes among Hungarian patients compared with reports from other geographic regions (e.g., Finland and Asia). Our data suggest that in northeastern Hungary, HLA-DR4 as well as its subtypes DRB10405 and DRB10408 may be involved in susceptibility to RA, but HLA-DR1 may not. In addition, the presence of HLA-DR12, at least in Hungary, may protect from this disease.

Megjegyzések:	Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Endothelial dysfunction often precedes manifest atherosclerosis. Both traditional, Framingham risk factors and inflammation-associated factors are involved in RA-associated atherosclerosis. Among imaging techniques, the early determination of common carotid intima-media thickness (ccIMT), flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), and nitroglycerine-mediated vasodilation (NMD) may be useful to determine atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction. We and others found increased ccIMT and impaired FMD in RA patients. Among immunological and metabolic laboratory markers, anticyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies, IgM rheumatoid factor, circulating immune complexes, pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), Th0/Th1 T cells, homocysteine, dyslipidemia, decreased folate and vitamin B12 production, and impaired paraoxonase activity may all be involved in the development of vascular disease in RA. The early diagnosis of endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis, active immunosuppressive treatment, the use of drugs that control atherosclerosis, changes in sedentary lifestyle, and the close follow-up of RA patients may help to minimize cardiovascular risk in these individuals.
