"There's an app for that"
but is it enough?
US informatics national survey 2017-18:
Rheum pts with digital health tools weren't any healthier living than those without (maybe helps exercise)
It might be a conversation starter, but it's only an adjunct

Systemic polyarteritis nodosa looks creepily/scarily beautiful on PET/CT. Look at that Christmas tree!
but sensitivity can be affected by pred, & isn't great even without (48%).
By itself, a good rule in test, but not a good rule out test.

Probably no surprise, but if you can navigate the digital world, it portends work for your rheum disease.
all @MedUni_Wien rheum clinic pts did an eHealth survey
high eHealth literacy did much better
We can't leave digital stragglers behind!

Now that nipocalimab is approved for Sjogren's Disease, what about vaccination response whilst on this FcRn inhibitor (inherently lowers IgG)?
Actually, not bad: takes a little longer to get there, but reassuring!
(always fun to get to know a new med)

Active early RA accentuates regional MSK pain.
Non-articular pain:
easy to ignore & focus on active RA
yes, some is related to RA dx activity
BUT actually it becomes a bigger issue over time
Worth identifying to:
clarify what isn't RA
Rx appropriately

My ramblings on the SELECT-GCA study and predictions of the place of upadacitinib in clinical practice in GCA are up now on RheumNow #ACR24 @RheumNow https://t.co/DR5VgVmdse

I've shared some further thoughts on @jeffsparks SAIL-RA study and its finding of the strong association of RA-ILD with disease activity in early RA. And of course couldn't resist going on a tangent about the ACR ILD guidelines! #ACR24 @RheumNow https://t.co/UUDbWw38Im

A key practice changing study (I hope) from #ACR24 has been the preCARA study. Fertility increases with aggressive disease control. My video on this study is up now on @RheumNow https://t.co/Pf3rdTHbOJ

The TAPIR study presented at #ACR24 may not be as attention grabbing as others like SELECT-GCA, but in my opinion it is arguablyone of the most important ANCA-vasculitis studies ever. I've shared some further thoughs in an article on @RheumNow https://t.co/mImAE8ezSQ

What a result!!!
Crowed split 49% against and 51% for MCTD as a unique disease entity
Given pre-debate poll of >70% for MCTD, looks like an overall win for the “NOT” group
Fantastic session from all the presenters

The anti-MCTD group strikes back
Of cohort of over 1,000 RNP+ pt, only 17 clinically diagnosed with MCTD
Majority of patients, despite potential overlap, treated for other primary rheum dz
