Unsupervised cluster analysis of clinical and ultrasound features reveals unique gout subtypes: Results from the Egyptian College of Rheumatology (ECR)

Research Abstract
Gout comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders; however, comorbidities have been the focus of most efforts to classify disease subgroups.
Objectives
We applied cluster analysis using musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) combined with clinical and laboratory findings in patients with gout to identify disease phenotypes, and differences across clusters were investigated.

Regulatory B Cells Evaluation in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients with Subclinical Atherosclerosis and Secondary Antiphospholipid Syndrome

Research Abstract
The current knowledge of human studies that address B cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients with subclinical atherosclerosis remains insufficient. We aimed to evaluate the contribution of Breg cells in SLE and secondary antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) patients taking into consideration its relation to subclinical atherosclerosis and the disease activity.
Methods:
Thirty SLE patients and 23 controls were included. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index-2000 was estimated. Evaluation of Breg cells percentage using flow cytometry was done. All participants underwent carotid doppler ultrasound examination for measurements of the intima-media thickness of the common carotid artery (cIMT). The coronary artery calcium scoring was calculated using the Agatston method.
