#EULAR2025 Abstr#OP0204 Limitations of #SLE Damage Index (SDI): outdated items definition, missing item & unclear use in children. Revised SDI (SLICC-ACR-LFA) via data-driven and expert patient-doctor consensus is underway. Next steps: validation and including weighting @RheumNow https://t.co/K5rPgXBPrj

ARIAA study: longer-term data now
High-risk ACPA+ clinically suspect arthralgias
abatacept for 6mo, then stop altogether
Really impressive long-term effect
also noting success of APIPPRA, abatacept flicks off some very early RA, at least for a while

Why do people not respond to psoriatic arthritis therapies?

What is the difference between difficult to treat, and treatment-refractory?
(see these criteria for PsA)
Treatment refractory means that co-morbidities, psychosocial issues and other factors have been managed adequately, but inflammation keeps on going

Why do we need RA treatment recommendation updates? We keep on getting new data, for our keystone disease
so today Josef Smolen and colleagues present the new 2025 EULAR recommendations

67% of HCPs knew of EULAR’s CVD risk guidelines in RMDs—but few could apply them.
✅ Only 13% linked SLE control to CVD risk
🚫 0% picked correct BP/statin use in RA/AS/PsA
Barriers? Time, knowledge, and local guideline gaps.
