Full circle. I met Prof D Isenberg at my first EULAR Congress 10 years ago. He welcomed a strangers request to come for Rheumatology training at UCLH with open arms. A kind, generous soul. My heart is full whenever we meet.❤️ https://t.co/yvwYyDKRD6

Looks like I’m not the only one who doesn’t let the absence of synovitis stop me from sometimes treating high-risk clinically suspect arthralgias i.e. ‘very early early RA’
The truth comes out in anonymous surveys!

Difficult to Treat RA (D2TRA): Jacob van Laar
#EULAR2022 Points to consider @RheumNow
1. Consider the diagnosis! Misdiagnosis or mimic?
2. U/s when in doubt
3. Caution in comorbidities (obesity, fm) which can overestimate inflamm markers, disease activity https://t.co/YT9NRv7EA0

After linking ultra-processed food with developing autoimmune disease in at-risk individuals, we clarified:
What is an ultra-processed food?
has undergone mechanic or enzymatic processing
Not all bread is the same.
Dietary surveys fail on this.

Does diet drive IL-23 in IBD and PsA? Perhaps if you have the right baseline risk. The science is evolving quickly
Stronger rationale that diet may be really important in some patients
