Echos in PsA, RA:
🔹Diastolic dysfxn: 52% of PsA and RA (!), controls 5%
🔹Mitral regurge PsA 84%, Ra 53%, controls 10%
🔹Mild pulmonary valve regurge higher in PsA
(Diastolic dysfxn has been seen in prior RA studies)

Diabetes puts you at risk of cardiovascular disease, right?
What about RA?
Look at this graph and compare the pair.

🔥Continued, More Clinically Meaningful data in #SSc #ILD from #Nintedanib in >52 wk SENSCIS & SENSCIS-ON(open-label ext)#ACR21 Dr Distler
✨MMF likely to stay 1st line, then Nintedanib
❓Is it time for MMF + Antifibrotic upfront??
Await SLS-III;Data so far seems supportive https://t.co/JWXMlsJgmc

Among 6 CV risk algorithms, the best to predict the carotid plaque (CP) in PsA is the ACC/AHA risk score showed an AUC 0.681 (0.551-0.812), p=0.008, a cut-off point ≥4.8, sensitivity of 63.6%, and specificity of 64.4%
⭐️Prevalence CP 42.3%

#volcosporin good ~lupus nephritis added to #MMF but underbelly - side effects like but ?less than #cyclosporin. #FDA update - ⬆️hypertension and nephrotoxicity, infection #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/w5nLLSTlrB
Almost like real-life, I've "run across the conference centre" to catch the end of the #InterstitialLungDisease session- some excellent insights from Dr Melissa Griffith on a complex topic, will definitely be reviewing the full talk later.

Steroids can cause co-morbidities which increase CV risk, but can PNL directly increase CV event (MACE) risk in RA?
30d PNL➡️15% increase in MACE in next 30d
(independent of underlying CV risk, RA dx activity)
PNL actively confers risk!

👉🏼Long-term #steroid use is common in RA incl in pts with high risk of #MACE
👉🏼30days of steroids ➡️ 15% increased odds of MACE
