- Abstract: Objective Obesity conveys a risk for RA development, while paradoxically, associating with less radiographic progression after RA diagnosis. Using MRI we can study this surprising association in detail from MRI-detected synovitis and osteitis to MRI-detected erosive progression, which precedes radiographic progression. Previous research suggested obesity associates with less osteitis and synovitis. We therefore aimed to (i) validate the previously suggested association between BMI and MRI-detected osteitis/synovitis; (ii) study whether this is specific for ACPA-positive or ACPA-negative RA or also present in other arthritides; (iii) study whether MRI-detected osteitis associates with MRI-detected erosive progression; and (iv) study whether obesity associates with MRI-detected erosive progression. Methods We studied 1029 early arthritis patients (454 RA, 575 other arthritides), consecutively included in Leiden Early Arthritis Clinic. At baseline patients underwent hand-and-foot MRI that were RAMRIS-scored, and 149 RA patients underwent follow-up MRIs. We studied associations between baseline BMI and MRI-detected osteitis/synovitis (using linear regression), and erosive progression (using Poisson mixed models). Results In RA, higher BMI associated with less osteitis at disease onset (β = 0.94; 95% CI: 0.93, 0.96) but not with synovitis. Higher BMI associated with less osteitis in ACPA-positive RA (β = 0.95; 95% CI: 0.93, 0.97), ACPA-negative RA (β = 0.97; 95% CI: 0.95, 0.99) and other arthritides (β = 0.98; 95% CI: 0.96, 0.99). Over 2 years, overweight and obesity associated with less MRI-detected erosive progression (P = 0.02 and 0.03, respectively). Osteitis also associated with erosive progression over 2 years (P < 0.001). Conclusions High BMI relates to less osteitis at disease onset, which is not confined to RA. Within RA, high BMI and less osteitis associated with less MRI-detected erosive progression. This suggests that the protective effect of obesity on radiographic progression is exerted via a path of less osteitis and subsequently fewer MRI-detected erosions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
