Nice #SLE validation study. This kind of work is (1) time intensive and (2) thankless!
It's not flashy but it winds up being the backbone/foundation for many subsequent studies
Need more in other diseases, including sarcoidosis and myositis! @DidemSayginMD

GUSTO 1y follow-up (TCZ +IVMPx3 but no ongoing PNL in new GCA):
initial 24w results disappointing (permanent visual loss x1)
BUT follow-up at 2y: control overwhelmingly maintained in responders
We need to keep asking: can we use less PNL in GCA? When?

#ACR22 Plenary 1. Abstr#0001 Another important use of #methotrexate. MIRROR RCT showed greater response in pegloticase + MTX vs pegloticase + PBO and lower infusion reaction. Be interesting to define MTX dose and ?other DMARDs esp in patients with CKD @RheumNow #ACRBest https://t.co/xkP6ZZGQfu

#ACR22 Abstr#0127. Cross-sectional study of 59 patients with #SAPHO and Chronic Nonbacterial Osteomyelitis showed that patients had high level of pain and fatigue and low function. Important to assess for these and could be a treatment target @RheumNow https://t.co/451KrlJWZF

mTORC1 may be driver of inflammation that connects the pathogenesis of sJIA and MAS as seen in mouse models. Further evaluation needs to be determined in humans, but interesting nonetheless. Abs 0004 #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/RFokZqFQZp https://t.co/E7yxCPDGCd

Excellent start to the first plenary session!
MIRROR study - MTX coadministration with pegloticase for gout treatment
- doubling of efficacy and 7x decrease in infusion reactions
- less anti-PEG abs

@MayoClinic data for bari in relapsing GCA caused waves at #ACR21
Spanish data looking at real-world practice: slightly longer, slower GCA, but equally encouraging outcomes
waiting for SELECT-GCA with interest! @EBRheum

Ab0349 #ACR22 BEL vs AZA ifn risks in non-renal SLE
BEL: lower risk of severe ifn (HR 0.81) and hospitalization for ifn (HR 0.73) through 5 yrs
Challenge to interpret data as 56% of patients were on glucocorticoids and other anti-rheumatic meds

⬆️ correlation between BASDAI + ASQoL in 🙋♂️ vs 🙋♀️
What does this mean?
❓low disease activity in 🙋♀️ resulting in more marked ⬇️ in QoL❓
OR
❓Is there a need for gender stratified tools of disease activity❓
