Heart Beat: Rheumatoid arthritis should heighten heart awareness
Rheumatoid arthritis begins in the joints, but it doesn't end there. The inflammation that causes swelling and pain in fingers, wrists, knees, and other joints can also affect the heart. A large study from Sweden suggests that a new diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis should get you thinking about your heart, too.
In a group of 7,500 men and women with new rheumatoid arthritis whose health was followed for up to 12 years, more people than expected had a heart attack, developed chest pain with activity or stress (angina), or needed a procedure to open or bypass a blocked heart artery within five years of their diagnosis (Journal of Internal Medicine, December 2010).
This work emphasizes how important it is for everyone with rheumatoid arthritis, including those just learning they have it, to focus on improving heart health while coping with their joint problems. Although an arthritis-specific approach to warding off heart disease doesn't yet exist, the basic steps for protecting the heart and arteries are a great start:
exercise
follow a healthy diet
manage your weight
control your blood pressure and cholesterol.
It's possible that taking a baby aspirin or a cholesterol-lowering statin may be good options for people with rheumatoid arthritis, but these and other drug-based strategies haven't yet been tested. 类风湿性关节炎患者应该高度重视心脏

类风湿性关节炎又称类风湿(RA),是一种病因尚未明了的慢性全身性炎症性疾病,以慢性、对称性、多滑膜关节炎和关节外病变为主要临床表现,属于自身免疫炎性疾病。该病好发于手、腕、足等小关节,反复发作,呈对称分布;也会影响到心脏。来自瑞典的大量研究表明,类风湿性关节炎的新的诊断,也应该将心脏的情况考虑进去。

2010年12月份发表在《内科医学》杂志的一项,通过对7500名新诊断为类风湿关节炎的男性和女性患者,进行长达12年的随访,研究结果发现:在其被诊断患有类风湿关节炎的随后的5年内,与预期希望值想比较有更多的人患上心脏病,并出现活动后的胸痛、心绞痛,或者需要通过开胸或旁路手术来缓解给心脏供血的动脉的阻塞。

这项研究结果,强调了对每一位患有类风湿关节炎的患者(包括刚刚被诊断的患者)来说,聚焦心脏健康的改善非常重要。然而,对于阻止心脏病来说,并不存在很好的方法。但,我们应该从保护心脏、动脉的基本步骤开始做起:
· exercise
· follow a healthy diet
· manage your weight
· control your blood pressure and cholesterol.
运动
健康的饮食
控制体重
控制血压及胆固醇。
It's possible that taking a baby aspirin or a cholesterol-lowering statin may be good options for people with rheumatoid arthritis, but these and other drug-based strategies haven't yet been tested.
通过服用低剂量的阿司匹林或降胆固醇的他汀类药物,对于类风湿性关节炎患者来说,是一个可能的选择;但这些和其他的基础药物的治疗策略还没有通过测试。 类风湿性关节炎患者应该高度重视心脏
