Aging Begins at 30 Different Forms of Arthritis Can Affect Your Spine Ian Maclean Smith, M.D. Emeritus Professor Department of Internal Medicine University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics Creation Date: May 1999 Last Revision Date: May 1999 Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed Enthesis is a difficult word, even cumbersome to say. It means "to insert" in Greek and refers to the bone insertion of tendon or ligament. It brings understanding to what may seem four different forms of arthritis, all "enthesopathies" or insertion diseases. The first is ankylosing (fusing) spondylitis (vertebral inflammation) also called Marie-Strumpell disease. Late, untreated cases may develop "bamboo" or "poker" spine because of the X ray appearance or totally stiff back of advanced disease. It is sometimes mistakenly called rheumatoid spine. These all affect centrally located cartilage joints of the spine and breastbone. In contrast rheumatoid arthritis affects peripheral joints with lubricated sac-like capsules, called synovial joints from "syn" joined and "oon" egg-white fluid. Reactive new bone formation is typical and shows as X ray bony spurs or bridging between vertebrae. All four have inflammation at tendons or ligament attachments which can calcify.

REACTIVE AND RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS Gabe Mirkin, M.D. Most rheumatologists refuse to treat their rheumatoid arthritis patients with antibiotics even though controlled prospective studies show that minocycline drops the rheumatoid factor towards zero and helps to alleviate the pain and destruction of rheumatoid arthritis. The studies, referenced below, include: 1) First Netherlands study, 10 patients, J of Rheumatology 1990;17(1):43-46. 2) 2nd Netherlands Study, 80 patients, Arthritis and Rheumatism 1994;37(5):629-636. 3) Israel Study, 18 patients, J of Rheumatology 1992;19(10):1502-1504. 4) U.S.Mira Study, 219 patients, Annals of Internal Medicine. 1995(Jan15);122(2):81-89. 5) U.S. U of Nebraska Study, 40 patients, Arthritis and Rheumatism 1997;40(5):842-848. I treat my reactive arthritis patients with Minocycline 100 mg twice a day, (sometimes azithromycin 500 mg twice a week), but this must still be considered experimental because most doctors are not yet ready to accept antibiotics as a treatment. There is also possibility of a rare serious side effect of lupus. Many patients with rheumatoid arthritis do not feel better for the first few months after they start taking minocycline. If a patient does nor feel better after taking 100 mg of minocycline twice day for 2 months, I add Zithromax 500 mg twice a week. If the patient does not feel better after taking the two antibiotics for 6 months, I do add the immune suppressants that most rheumatologists prescribe. But as soon as they feel better, I stop the immune supppressants and continue the antibiotics.
