Is there role for MTX in GCA
Favorable results in a meta-analysis with NNT 11 to prevent 1 cranial relapse
BUT: limitations of meta-analysis, short follow-up, dose response not evaluated

DMARDs/TNF for PMR:
MTX- initial benefit, but no 5 year steroid sparing effect
Infliximab - no benefit
Lef - some benefit in case series

Dr. Anisha Dua on Imaging in PMR:
- US of shoulders to eval for bursitis can increase specificity
- MRI better for pelvic girdle, but expensive
- Consider PET if lack of response to steroids, r/o malignancy

@anisha_dua:
Temporary artery biopsy still preferred, rec over u/s, especially if not
Early imaging for GCA recommended

"Ideally, you should get your TA biopsies within 2 weeks, but that's not always possible. Don't delay tx." @anisha_dua reminds us that bx can still be positive up to 8 weeks after steroid initiation. Just be aware of lesional changes with time. #RNL2023 @RheumNow https://t.co/uOdmlLfdkh
