Rheumatism [2] /ˈruməˌtɪzəm/ or rheumatic disorders are conditions causing chronic, often intermittent pain affecting the joints or connective tissue. [3] Rheumatism does not designate any specific disorder, but covers at least 200 different conditions, including arthritis and "non-articular rheumatism", also known as "regional pain syndrome" or "soft tissue rheumatism".
Anti-rheumatoid factor antibodies are also increased. [95] In addition, cross-reactive anti-beef-collagen antibodies (IgG) may explain some rheumatoid arthritis (RA) incidences. [ 96 ] Although the presence of anti-beef collagen antibodies does not necessarily lead to RA, the RA association with Triticeae consumption is secondary to GSE and ...
These other disorders include ankylosing spondylitis; [71] rheumatoid arthritis; [72] spondyloarthritis diseases (i.e., rheumatoid factor-antibody negative ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic spondylitis, certain forms of reactive arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease-associated spondylitis, and unclassifiable spondylitis); [73] Crohn's disease ...
Thus, notwithstanding it is a misnomer, the term survives (e.g., rhesus blood group system and the obsolete terms rhesus factor, rhesus positive, and rhesus negative – all three of which actually refer specifically and only to the Rh D factor and are thus misleading when unmodified). Contemporary practice is to use "Rh" as a term of art ...
Involvement of the spinal joints is more suggestive of psoriatic arthritis than rheumatoid arthritis. [3] Rheumatoid factor (RF) and cyclic citrullinated peptide autoantibodies are typically found in the blood of people with RA, but not, as a rule, in those with PsA. [16] [17] Comorbities may help differential diagnosis. [17]
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an annular (ring-shaped) pentameric protein found in blood plasma, whose circulating concentrations rise in response to inflammation. It is an acute-phase protein of hepatic origin that increases following interleukin-6 secretion by macrophages and T cells .

In this mechanism the reactive intermediate species NO 3 is formed in the first step with rate r 1 and reacts with CO in the second step with rate r 2. However, NO 3 can also react with NO if the first step occurs in the reverse direction (NO + NO 3 → 2 NO 2) with rate r −1, where the minus sign indicates the rate of a reverse reaction.
