Evidence earlier in #ACR20 showed pts can give good reported jt scores. But PT globals, and evaluator globals, do not predict radiographic progression. MBDA does predict progression @LCalabreseDO @MeralElRamahiMD @RheumNow Abst#1730 https://t.co/YPWOqTRqV6

@psufka @wendycostello2 @RheumNow I love seeing patients in person! However, being pregnant during COVID19 made me adjust my practice significantly (as we all did.) Watch https://t.co/99R5rPryui it helped me to visualize the PE in an entirely new way. @RheumNow

SELECT-CHOICE on UPA vs ABA in RA in NEJM Oct 2020. How about PROs? UPA wins in phys fxn, pain, general health over ABA. Abst#1728 @RheumNow #ACR20. ABA better if a safety concern, but this is more evid to go for UPA
