These kind of studies must be done, but this result is to nobody’s surprise! #PedsRheum
Let’s keep working together to move the bar towards recognition that #sJIA and #AOSD are a single condition that can affect people of all ages! https://t.co/qzbgeKPlqw

Abst#1717 confirms that early start of csDMARDs as 1st line tx & keeping ts/bDMARD as 2nd line tx (or more) is associated w/ a favorable outcome at 10 yrs in the ESPOIR cohort (a French multi-center cohort that followed patients w/ early RA). #ACR20 @RheumNow https://t.co/bzZiShCF97

This - very cool.
Not as impressive as the implanted vagal stimulation pilot data, but once a day and well tolerated. Very early days but enticing, we will see!

Wonder if you can predict development of clinical RA in those at risk either w/ a
- +RF or +CCP
- Relevant sxs w/ or w/o abs
- 1st deg relatives do RA pts?
Abst#1722 shows patterns of pain or degree of jt swelling from SPARRA Qnairre can do so. #ACR20 @RheumNow https://t.co/bQ4ZmSYhBe

Dr. Khanna NOVESA study #ACR20 Abst#L09. Autotaxin inhibitor ZIRI in early dcSSc. 21 pts ziri vs 12 PBO. mRSS at Wk24 mean difference -2.8. Ziri well-tolerated. Would be great for new drug for early SSc skin. @RheumNow. https://t.co/qpvLFsAe0x

FAST trial: allopurinol vs febuxostat on safety
(for gout pts on allopurinol, with ≥1 CV RF, TTT dosing)
febuxostat non-inferior for CV events
Well, that's a relief.
gout flare similar, good follow-up, colchicine did not influence
out in Lancet today?
