Loved this session on: Preclinical Rheumatoid Arthritis- Can we stop RA? As a patient advocate living with RA, my providers have always ran tests on my microbiome. The findings have correlated with my disease flares, and was a big trigger overall. #ACR21 @ACRheum Thank you! https://t.co/6hm6hr85JS

Dr. Furie asked Dr. Touma what he was doing in 1976? Dr. Touma said, "I was not even in school, yet." Dr. Furie noted that in 1976, the first study was published on methylprednisolone pulse for lupus nephritis in 7 patients. #ACR21 @rheumnow Link below https://t.co/Oe9xmH7Tzg https://t.co/xslAHYNXej
