Can we predict who which PsA pts will be radiographic progressors?
Abs#449 identified 103 candidate biomarker peptides corresponding to 69 proteins that could ID progressors
More data needed

#Fatigue is common in pts w/ #PsA- what is the impact on short-term disability?
Study of ~1200 pts finds greater annual short-term disability in pts with PsA & fatigue than w/o fatigue. Impact on QoL, work & socioeconomic costs.

PsA bDMARD use in Australia🇦🇺
(where once you qualify for a bDMARD in general, it's the physician's free choice)
1. cool Sankey diagram showing switches
2. given the chance, people switch in all directions & switch hard
