#EULAR2026 OP0220 How can we improve physical function of #SLE patients? Cross-sectional study of 2 US cohorts: poor physical function was associated with Fatigue, depression, learned helplessness and perceived stress.

Proud to present POS0784 at #EULAR2026.
RheumACaN education + pathway redesign across primary and secondary care improved early inflammatory arthritis referrals within 3 working days from 52% to 70%, exceeding the national benchmark.
95% of clinicians changed their practice. https://t.co/W6VViVRndp

๐Do GLP-1 agonists improve DMARD persistence in PsA/axSpA?
TriNetX real-world study (n=3,068): YES!
Better b/tsDMARD persistence and lower stroke & mortality risk

โฐ The question rheumatologists keep asking: Does early axSpA diagnosis reduce long-term spinal damage?
Answer from the SCQM registry (n=376): Early diagnosis linked to 3.85 fewer mSASSS points long-term, esp. in HLA-B27+ males

๐ Do 2025 ASAS-SPARTAN criteria classify fewer real-world axSpA patients?
Data from the RABBIT-SpA registry (n=2,236) confirms:
67% vs 73% with 2009 criteria
Clinical arm rarely fulfilled

๐ Do posterior element lesions progress over 10 years in axSpA?
Data from the DESIR inception cohort (n=320) says RARELY!
But baseline PE inflammation raises facet ankylosis risk ~70-fold

CyTOF reveals significant sexual dimorphism in monocyte populations in active #axSpA
Women show reduced classical and non-classical monocytes vs healthy controls. Men do not show the same pattern.
Sex is not just a demographic variable in AxSpA it is also an immunological one.
