“…The relationship between single diseases and RA has frequently been discussed in the literature. For instance, many inflammatory disorders have been discussed alongside RA, such as asthma [ 28 ], atherosclerosis [ 29 ], conjunctivitis [ 30 ], cystitis [ 31 ], dental caries [ 32 ], enthesopathy [ 33 ], erosion of cervix disease, eczema, endocervicitis, fasciitis [ 34 ], gastroenteritis, laryngitis [ 27 ], Meniere’s disease, mitral valve disorders, carpal tunnel syndrome [ 24 ], periodontitis [ 35 ], pulpitis [ 36 ], synovitis and tenosynovitis [ 37 ], tonsillitis, ulcers [ 38 ], urticarial [ 39 ], and vaginitis [ 40 ]. However, the joint association of RA with diseases such as endocervicitis, gastroenteritis, pharyngitis, pulpitis, tonsillitis, urinary tract infections [ 41 ], and vaginitis has received less attention.…”

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune rheumatic disease that can cause painful swelling in the joint lining, morning stiffness, and joint deformation/destruction. These symptoms decrease both quality of life and life expectancy. However, if RA can be diagnosed in the early stages, it can be controlled with pharmacotherapy. Although many studies have examined the possibility of early assessment and diagnosis, few have considered the relationship between significant risk factors and the early assessment of RA. In this paper, we present a novel framework for early RA assessment that utilizes data preprocessing, risk pattern mining, validation, and analysis. Under our proposed framework, two risk patterns can be discovered. Type I refers to well-known risk patterns that have been identified by existing studies, whereas Type II denotes unknown relationship risk patterns that have rarely or never been reported in the literature. These Type II patterns are very valuable in supporting novel hypotheses in clinical trials of RA, and constitute the main contribution of this work. To ensure the robustness of our experimental evaluation, we use a nationwide clinical database containing information on 1,314 RA-diagnosed patients over a 12-year follow-up period (1997–2008) and 965,279 non-RA patients. Our proposed framework is employed on this large-scale population-based dataset, and is shown to effectively discover rich RA risk patterns. These patterns may assist physicians in patient assessment, and enhance opportunities for early detection of RA. The proposed framework is broadly applicable to the mining of risk patterns for major disease assessments. This enables the identification of early risk patterns that are significantly associated with a target disease.

Rationale:Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP) is rare and an idiopathic disorder. The disease has been associated with drugs, infection, or irradiation, and its relationship with asthma remains unclear.Patient concerns:We reported a case of a 49-year-old female patient after trastuzumab and radiation therapy for breast cancer. Two months after radiation treatment, the patient complained of productive cough, progressive breathlessness, occasional wheezing, and left pectoralgia.Diagnoses:Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed infiltrates in lungs. Without evidence of infection, marked increased eosinophils in a transbronchial biopsy performed from the left upper lobe confirmed the diagnosis of CEP after trastuzumab and radiation therapy.Interventions:The patient was started with oral prednisone at 0.5 mg/kg/day.Outcomes:A CT scan of the chest obtained 2 weeks after steroid treatment showed diminishment of the lesions, and at the 6-month follow-up, the patient had no complaints of discomfort with no relapse of pulmonary lesions.Lessons:Physicians should consider CEP as a diagnosis in patients who have had previous exposure to trastuzumab and radiation therapy, especially with a history of asthma. Timely diagnosis and treatment may benefit these patients.
