Prediction of PsA in PSO pts: does it work?
First predictive model using mainly clinical data and labs extracted from primary care
Performs well in the cohort it was trained w/ but not in validation cohort.
Often an issue with prediction models!
Needs more granularity than https://t.co/5cVgqfd4fX

🔍MRI lesions in early axSpA vs non axSpA with chronic back pain:
-Data from SPACE cohort
-n 318 (214 axSpA vs 108 non-axSpA).
-Baseline imaging (CR and MRI) and at 2y f/u
-Minimal progression on CR in both early axSpA and non-axSpA CBP.
-On MRI, significant increase in the https://t.co/m5YOAiFUz1

PsA asso w/ higher risk of preterm births in women
Scandinavian registries
688 PsA pregnancies
8% preterm births vs. 4.5% general population OR 1.8
16.4% if bDMARD combination OR 4
3.1% if bDMARD monotherapy OR 0.7
bDMARDs combo probably a surrogate of high disease activity

were associated with

What does this mean?
Improving physical performance could enhance PROs & QOL

What's the difference between PIPsA & NIPsA?
(Persistent Inflammatory confirmed by IMAGING
vs. Non inflammatory PsA)
🔹️Cross-sectional study
🔹️517 pts under b/tsDMARDs
🔹️10.3% D2T
🔹️57% PIPsA / 43% NIPsA
👇 Distinct phenotypes 👇

What happens to the prevalence of D2T PsA if we use different parameters in its definition?
Data from 5 Nordic registries including 13,872 patients showed a variation from 37% (less stringent) to 0.6% (more stringent)!

🚨Diagnostic delays are real in axSpA:
-Can lead to more extra-msk manfieststions (EMMs) in PsA and axSpA.
-Increases disease burden and productivity losses.
-EMMs can present before articular sx
-Uveitis and IBD associated with longer dx delays.
-Diagnosis has improved since https://t.co/rWMwG7Ewwe

A machine learning (ML) model using electronic medical record (EMR) data from 396,000 Mayo Clinic primary care patients identified undiagnosed psoriatic arthritis (PsA) with area under the curve (AUC) 79.6%. Key predictors: psoriasis, joint pain, tenosynovitis, https://t.co/VsYevnJEjK

In CareRA pooled analysis, 1 in 3 early RA pts had persistent impact (pain, fatigue, HAQ) despite improved inflammation. Female sex, longer symptom duration & low CRP were predictive. Pts more often escalated to b/tsDMARDs → risk of overtreatment?

Some RA-ILD is less of a worry, some is critical. How do we stratify?
Great modelling work from Korea & @jeffsparks - model stratifying really well, even without KL-6.
We need to do this more, so we can go really hard early when we need to.

🌍Patients w RMDs across 🇫🇷🇳🇱🇨🇭🇹🇷 face different barriers to physical activity:
💶Cost =barrier in 🇳🇱
⛈️Weather =barrier in 🇹🇷
🧑⚕️HCP support =key in 🇫🇷
🏃Active transport & knowledge =enablers in 🇨🇭
Tailored physical activity interventions needed.

We can control inflammation in RA, but some pts still struggle with disease impact, despite improving with bDMARDs:
- lower inflamm
- higher comorbidities
Doesn’t necessarily map to fibromyalgia dx
Beyond Rx, this is the critical question

PsO + recent arthralgia—but no PsA. Treat or wait?
🧠 18% developed PsA in 3 yrs, most in year 1
🔍 Predictors: tender joints, disability, enthesis erosion
Consider early rheum input for these patients

Can RZB deliver in real-world early PsA?
💥 9-month results say yes:
✅ Dactylitis gone in 79%
✅ Enthesitis in 90%
✅ 97% MDs & 88% pts satisfied
Early intervention may pay off.

Very pleased to present at #EULAR2025 work @ArthritisAust on consumer involvement into research.
Consumer involvement in research delivers:
- better, more relevant research
- better dissemination of results
- competitiveness in today’s funding landscape

Delay hurts.
Dx delay in axial SpA costs UK £3.1 billion annually.
Avg time to dx = 8.5 yrs
Avg dx cost = £187k/person
Fixing delay could save £167k/person.
Early Dx isn’t just better care—it’s economic policy.
