Core Tip	Rheumatic diseases are common and often disabling. Standard drug treatments can control in¬flammation, but many patients do not find relief. Potent biologic drugs (tumor necrosis factor inhibitors) are not tolerated by some. This patient report describes treatment with umbilical cord blood stem cells (CBSC). Clinical observations and serology results document prolonged improvement of psoriatic arthritis. This type of report is important since it documents a dosage, time course, and a beneficial outcome, using an under-employed type of stem cell. These results can help guide clinicians in future trials using CBSC.
