🏠 Take Home Messages from the early #axSpA session
🔺 Earlier diagnosis is possible and better
🔺 Early axSpA is not synonymous to mild
🔺 Longitudinally, early axSpA is heterogeneous
🔺 MRI has transformed the field
❗️Beware of pitfalls

Updated SLR on D2T #RA (131 studies): JAKi maintain ACR20 even after 2-3 prior bDMARDs, with UPA outperforming ABA in head-to-head. But evidence on non-pharmacologic strategies in D2T RA remains nearly absent. Clear gap for future trials. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS1246
