Description
Abdullatif Al-Hor and co-authors compare heart risk across autoimmune diseases in primary care. Their 2026 study holds 14,616 complete cases. A risk index was built from standard clinical facts, based on a well known heart score. High risk was set as the top quarter of the group. Groups covered rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, a thyroid illness, multiple illnesses, and no such illness.
The share above the high risk line differed by group. Rheumatoid arthritis was highest, at 29.4 percent. The thyroid group was lowest, at 12.7 percent. After adjustment, odds of high risk were higher in rheumatoid arthritis and lower in the thyroid group. Higher body weight, swelling markers, and statin use all tracked with high risk.
