Dr. Petri on COVID19 infection vs vaccination on SLE activity:
💠Infection = NO increase SLE activity
💠Infection =⬇️ cutaneous activity
💠Infection = ⬆️anti-cardiolipin IgG/M
💠Vaccination: no increase in activity NOR aCL IgG/M

#ACR21 #Abstr0988 Can we predict who would develop #lupus? Data from the Nurses Health Study showed the best model by combining Genetic Risk Score + Clinical & lifestyle factors (AUC:0.72). Need more diversity as most pts were White and aged 50s @RheumNow https://t.co/4KHiZbRgUK https://t.co/QV4npith9H

The first full day of Abstracts and Presentations from ACR Convergence, was full of highly engaging sessions, quality posters and unique presentations. To hear more about the best of the best, I would encourage you to look at our Day 1 Recap Video and Day 1 ACR Best Abstracts. Here are a few of my favorites from the first day.

How concerned should we be for #hydroxychloroquine retinopathy. >4000 pts prospectively followed. 1/2 w RA & 15% w #SLE. New risks Asian with pericentral pattern and overall. Length of time on use and ⬆️wt based dose per day & CKD all risks. Abst#0989 #ACR21 #ACRBest @RheumNow https://t.co/XTfdQpVC7H

#ACR21 #Abstr0865 It’s time for T2T to achieve LLDAS in #lupus. In a study of N=2040 pts, mortality was 2.3% mainly due to infection. Remission off steroid was the best but only met in 14%. LLDAS-50 achieved in 48% pts and ⬇️mortality by 56% @RheumNow https://t.co/CddqMuFIOM https://t.co/g346Cbybep

Can patient with low dx activity SLE stop HCQ, or at least try and reduce the dose?
Not if you want to avoid flares.
If there are safer subgroups to try it in, we haven't found them yet
(in fact higher dx activity➡️less risk ?other Rx)

Keep the Hydroxychloroquine!
SLICC cohort eval flare risk in 1460 pts who⬇️or d/c HCQ:
👉pts in remission who d/c HCQ flared HR 2.77 (1.46,5.26)
👉pts in remission who⬇️dose flared HR 2.14 (1.34, 3.42)

Do you order EKGs in everyone starting HCQ? Do you avoid HCQ in patients with heart failure? Will these abstracts impact your practice? Click on link to read more....#ACR21 @rheumnow #HCQ https://t.co/fvUZAvNWa8
