Poor sleep habits increases fibromyalgia risk in middle aged and older women
Researchers from Norway have uncovered an association between sleep problems and increased risk of fibromyalgia in women. The risk of fibromyalgia increased with severity of sleep problems, and the association was stronger among middle-aged and older women than among younger women.

Bone density related to bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Genes and smoking play role in rheumatoid arthritis
Recent genetic studies have revealed several new sites of genes that are risk factors for developing rheumatoid arthritis (RA), revealed by researchers in the June issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism.

Pain is not a symptom of arthritis, pain causes arthritis
