Patients selected to maximise response & minimise adverse events in RA & PsA trials.
What implications does this have when we interpret the data & try to apply in clinic?

Placebo response in PsA trials have more than doubled in last decade.
Due to patient characteristics, patient expectations?
Makes it very difficult to compare between trials

#OP0089 Do you know the pain catastrophizing score #PCS ? Cross-sectional study of 1199 #RA, #PsA & #ax-SpA patients: Low PCS were more often in remission as high PCS in RA & ax-SpA. PCS was associated with remission rates in RA and ax-SpA, but not in PsA #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/MYiLmPPbDN

#EULAR2021: Reduced likelihood of reaching disease remission in patients with RA or PsA who have concomitant depression and anxiety per prospective NOR-DMARD study. Social state and mental health factors play an important role in noresponse in T2T approach. @RheumNow https://t.co/Vl0Xkz2SNF

#OP0049 corevitas observational registry: ax-SpA patients showed younger age, more males, greater spinal pain, more exposure to cs- or bDMARD but similar fatigue and work impairment compared to ax-PsA #EULAR2021 @RheumNow

Crosssectional multicentre study clusters phenotypes of #spondyloarthritis differentiating two types: axial and peripheral, Fitted well to either diagnoses of ax-SpA or #PsA. Still overlap of features like arthritis, dactylitis and enthesitis exists. #OP0047 #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/sru9bT4mla

Don’t forget to detect cardiac abnormalities in your #RA and #PsA patients! Systematic transthoracic echocardiogram show higher prevalence of diastolic dysfunction, mild mitral and pulmonary valve regurgitation vs. matched controls. #EULAR2021 @RheumNow #POS1392 https://t.co/UsvbEKBRUY

Dr Kragsnaes presents counter-intuitive data on the gut microbiome. Faecal microbiota transplant ineffective in treating active peripheral psoriatic arthritis, leading to WORSE outcomes. But maybe this also tells us something? @RheumNow #EULAR2021 Abstr#OP0010 https://t.co/nvDvO4Gfxc

OP0010 at #EULAR2021. FLORA trial: Fecal microbiota transplant as add-on Rx to MTX. Small trial showing time-to-event curves show inferiority to sham but good safety. Fascinating concept exploring gut-joint interaction. @RheumNow. https://t.co/BIOmA5z6vK
