Overview
Our group has an overall focus on using patient-oriented and epidemiologic research studies to evaluate the etiology, outcomes, and public health burden of rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In particular, we perform studies to evaluate the genetic, environmental, serologic, and familial risk factors for RA, clinical trials for RA prevention, RA outcomes research focusing on the respiratory burden of RA, evaluate the effect of metabolic factors such as weight loss on RA outcomes, and investigate rheumatic manifestations of osseous sarcoidosis. We use large population-based studies for these studies, including the Nurses’ Health Studies, the Studies for the Etiology of RA, the Partners electronic medical record, the Brigham RA Sequential Study, and pharmacy claims databases. We also perform clinical trials including the Personalized Risk Estimator for RA (PRE-RA) Family Study, the Strategy to Prevent the Onset of Clinically-Apparent RA (StopRA), and the Cardiovascular Inflammation Reduction Trial (CIRT).

We are currently focusing on the interplay between lung inflammation and rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility and outcomes. We hypothesize that immune tolerance loss and RA-related autoantibody production occur at mucosal surfaces of the lung contributing to both RA risk and outcomes. We are testing these hypotheses using a variety of study designs, such as the Nurses' Health Studies, a large institutional RA registry, EMR data, pharmacy claims data, the Partners Biobank, and clinical trials.

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
