Is channelling bias a risk, because of treating clinicians 'protecting' pre-existing autoimmune dx pts: maybe?
Certainly in practice, these pts might get less combo immunoRx; this @mcgillu data would suggest so
Much more to understand across tumor streams

What imaging modality is best in GCA?
Dutch study: n=42
?GCA got all three of USS, PET/CT, MRI
Overall performance basically the same between all three.
Important details in 🧵
but reasonable to say you can be happy with whatever you’ve got!

Data like this make us think even in the setting of a controlled clinical trial in #gout, non-white patients much less likely to achieve target serum urate!
Black pts 70% less likely to reach target compared to whites!

Everyday heroes during #COVID19 Keynote @ACRheum Health care workers who were minorities disproportionately died in the early days of the pandemic. Can’t be all SES as risk but maybe ‘status’ as first line workers. Remember them #ACRBest #ACR22 @RheumNow @AbrahamVerghese 🙏🏻 https://t.co/AjkV5wDVEu

HCQ does not prevent RA in CCP+ pts w/out clinical arthritis!
Stop RA: RCT HCQ vs. PBO in pts at-risk
Interim analysis 140+ pts
RA development HCQ 34% vs. PBO 36%
Trial interrupted as met futility criteria.
