Interesting! Study of pts w/ ANA(-) & dsDNA(+). 1 in 5 dx with APLS! Have others seen that?
I have been disgregarding this pattern, though some of that is related to my in-house assay (seems overly-sensitive) & my bias against overdiagnosis

Abstract 2503: Clofutriben (HSD-1 inhibitor) minimizes adrenal suppression. Adding clofutriben to prednisolone boosts ACTH & cortisol levels with fewer patients with suppressed morning cortisol (≤5.0 mg/dL) (34% vs 14%).

Biosimilar switching in practice
Hyrich: UK experience
Switching to biosimilar has no immediate benefit to patients but saves NHS money
Allows for gain share that can be re-invested in pt care
Transparency in switching in explaining to pts and offering resource

Low uveitis rates in patients with axial spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis treated with bimekizumab (BKZ) over the long term.
Key findings:
- AxSpA: 3.7% incidence (1.3/100 PY) with BKZ.
- PsA: Only 0.2% incidence (0.1/100 PY).
- All events were mild/moderate, with no… https://t.co/jkUwHJk3FJ https://t.co/gTcCzeC88e

If you’re starting with DMARD (according to ACR/VF guidelines) tx in TAK - MTX and AZA are probably equivalent options… MMF not so much

Hyrich:
ETN originator vs biosimilar initiation
- DAS28 - no signif change at B/L, 6mo, 12 mo.
Switch?
Matched pts in ETN switch v cont originator - good b/l control on Rx
-DAS28 maintained w switch
10% did go back to originator, felt less good tho similar DAS

Food for thought 🤔
Abstract 1900 found non-diet soda and certain supplements (folate, B-vitamins, fish oil) were higher among individuals with incident SpA compared to controls

Older adults with late-onset RA (LORA) with more erosive changes, even with DMARD use
But is T2T met?
LORA with higher DAS on diagnosis and yet 10% on bDMARD vs 26% of young-onset RA

- higher disease activity in the South
- more oral steroids + csDMARDs, fewer bDMARDs, and more comorbidities in the Midwest

Provocative study suggests SLE has changed. Big picture: less physical manifestations, more serologic
@andreafava why isn't this just more-testing & more-sensitive testing shifting the phenotype of who we diagnose?

Lots of data on TYKs including much supporting efficacy in interferon inhibition
Can we really call interferon signalling a "central" pathway in SLE?
Inhibiting it has been modestly successful, at best, and mostly for skin dx

📊 New data on #RA-ILD:
🔴In early RA, ILD prevalence hits 21.4% after 10 years, with 8.2% cumulative incidence at 5 years (IR 14.9/1000 PY).
🔴ILD often precedes or coincides with RA onset.
🔴NSIP > UIP
🔴airway involvement less common than expected.
