EULAR 2024 – Day 3 Report
EULAR treats its attendees to a wonderful lunch each day – Schnitzel, gnocchi, goulash at lunch after muffins and coffee in the morning. It's no wonder the meeting has been a lively one, well attended with a wealth of stimulating ideas, research and discussion. Here are a few of my favorite abstracts and presentations from today, day 3 in Vienna.

Ex #MMF not much improvement on skin vs #RTX #Cyclo
Or combo Rx?
We need to improve #SoC

@RheumNow The always erudite @LCalabreseDO is no slouch of a debating opponent, however. He acknowledges that the science has been imperfect, too much is wrapped up in it, and that fibromyalgia can teach a lot to long COVID. #EULAR2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/TzR4SMZh9f

@RheumNow @LCalabreseDO @NIH and Len gives us some key recommendations for better practice for long COVID - for me, equally as applicable to fibromyalgia as to long COVID.
Fantastic discussion #EULAR2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/8PnjPEKcOu

Recommendation for management of fatigue in people with rheumatic disease.
Considering fatigue as a surrogate for inflammation and changing medication accordingly is part of it.
I will also add yearly blood work including:
1- VitD
2-HBA1c and LDl
3-TsH. https://t.co/3QvPqMxZSN

When would I use
#Aclasta vs #Prolia since #denosumab has LESS #fractures
▶️younger women with #osteoporosis requiring Rx due to long safety
▶️less wearing off when stopping it
▶️noncompliant Pts as prolia reverses effect when dose is missed

If your GCA flares, do you get the same features as you did at diagnosis?
20% of the time it can be new, so keep on doing the checklist!
(also, visual flares uncommon - the power of pred)
