Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment Linked with Lower Dementia Risk

A new study found that, among patients with rheumatoid arthritis who are treated with biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, dementia risk is decreased.

Extended Colonoscopy Interval: Is It Effective?

A recent study’s findings indicate that extending the colonoscopy screening interval could be safe.

Weight-Bearing Activity Tied to Knee Osteoarthritis Risk

According to recent findings, a weight-bearing activity could contribute to increased odds of radiographic knee osteoarthritis in people with low levels of lower-limb muscle mass.

Research Offers Hope for Patients With Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
