Endothelial function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis without classical cardiovascular risk factors is determined by subclinical lipid disturbances and compensatory vascular adaptation
RA, even with a moderate inflammatory burden, may facilitate detrimental effects of lipoproteins on macrovascular endothelial function. Interestingly, compensatory vascular responses were detected that may precede overt vascular dysfunction. Their monitoring may be useful in endothelial‑guided therapy.
