When you counsel patients w/RA, do you warn them that during times of dz flare, their ability to drive may be affected? ...maybe you should based on Abstr#0198

I admit I don’t get it. Warfarin has more cartilage loss than DOACs. Is this real or a reflection of diff access to cheap vs expensive meds?Duration response seen. Need RCT or subanalysis of a fib RCTs. #bestinclass great trainee plenary #934 @RheumNow @CRASCRRheum #ACR20 https://t.co/Eg1ymtDdmI

It's only now we have choices to warfarin that we can realise the effect of vit K blockade on OA.
Nested case-control (AF pts, UK primary care):
warfarin has risk vs DOAC for end-stage OA (via joint replacement) aOR 1.25
esp knee aOR 1.48

50% use septra/bactrim in SLE if immunesuppressed. I don’t use it unless if frequent serious infections or bad lungs as I am not convinced about the risk of PCP/PJP v risk of septra with adverse rxns in SLE. I await an admin database to give me the data @RheumNow #ACR20 https://t.co/3s2S9fIUVe

ACPA+ RA should likely NOT taper bDMARDs as less Bio survival if ACPA+ &/or monoRx. Should EULAR guidelines be changed? What about retention with JAKis? #ACR20 @RheumNow @CRASCRRheum abstr804 https://t.co/vjzIIgVJ0s

Dr. Burmester on serendipity in the development of rheumatologic meds. As we study #COVID19, we need to keep our minds open that we don't always find what we want, but we can always learn something to bring us ahead. #ACR20 @Rheumnow. https://t.co/s5WZEjrbnk

Dr Minalyan and colleagues report rates of gout flare following hospital admission of patients prescribed allopurinol. Gout flare 14 times more likely if allopurinol stopped or omitted. @rheumnow #ACR20 Abstr#688 https://t.co/x3eyX1PLFB

Study of 372 new #hydroxychloroquine users suggests risk of #HCQ #retinopathy at 10yrs is lower compared to previous prevalence-based estimates, although dose >5mg/kg may increase this risk.

Mayo study found incidence of HCQ retinopathy w/ <5 mg/kg/d 5 years = 0%, at 10 years = 2.5%
(historically w/ 6.5 mg/kg/d 5 yr incidence 1%,10 years 2%, 20 years 20%)
Based on this study, which dose of HCQ will you prescribe?

Should we in rheumatology be the ones leading the trials using our drugs with checkpoint inhibitors?
Can we learn lessons about collaborative work from @rheum_covid?
