摘要
Several studies have shown that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors are associated with an overall increased risk of serious infections compared with standard immunosuppressive regimens in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). a study by Strangfeld et al. adds specificity by showing a moderately increased risk of herpes zoster in patients receiving anti-TNF antibody treatment, and raises the question of whether live zoster vaccines should be utilized in this patient group.
