  Objective: This study was designed is to determine the correlation between serum calcium level and serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) level in Indonesian patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Subjects and Methods: The subjects are patients who visit the rheumatology clinic at a government hospital in Bandung, Indonesia. Serum calcium level was determined by a complexometric method, and the serum COMP level was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Statistical analysis was performed with R software.Results: The serum calcium level was 82.24±44.82 mg/mL in RA patients and 99.04±60.56 mg/mL in normal controls. The serum COMP level was 843.80±35.79 ng/ml in RA patients and 830.00±48.92 ng/ml in normal controls.Conclusion: There is no correlation between serum calcium level and serum COMP levels in RA patients (p=0.967 and rho=0.006).

Early Phases

Arthritis is a chronic disease with a significant impact on the population. It damages the cartilage, synovium, and bone of the joints causing pain, impairment, and disability in patients. Current methods for diagnosis of and monitoring the disease are only able to detect clinical manifestations of arthritis late in the process. However, with the recent onset of successful treatments for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, it becomes important to identify prognostic factors that can predict the evolution of arthritis. This is especially critical in the early phases of disease so that these treatments can be started as soon as possible to slow down progression of the disease. A valuable approach to monitor arthritis would be by measuring biological markers of cartilage degradation and repair to reflect variations in joint remodeling. One such potential biological marker of arthritis is cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP). In various studies, COMP has shown promise as a diagnostic and prognostic indicator and as a marker of the disease severity and the effect of treatment. This review highlights the progress in the utilization of COMP as a biomarker of arthritis.
