CARRA STOP-JIA 400pts, Obs study w/ 3 treatments plans :
-Step up
-Early combination
-Biologic first
Which one do you think works best?
I'd say none: overall 40-60% not achieving CDI off steroids at 24 months.
Results: 42% for SU, 52% EC, and 44% BF #Abtr0960 #ACR21 @RheumNow

✨Great Pearls when screening patients for clinically suspect #Scleroderma or #Juvenile #Dermatomyositis
📌 Don’t Stop Work Up at Negative ANA if strongly suspect SSc
📌 #Myositis Specific Antibodies have different phenotypes in kids than adults (MDA-5, TIF-1g, NXP-2)

#ACR21 #Abstr0261 In stable Non sJIA, is it safe to taper or stop MTX? Of 375 pts in CARRA registry, 24% tapered and 14% stopped MTX. No diff in flare rates btw those continued vs tapered/stopped. Sustained remission was in ⬆️tapered vs stopped @RheumNow https://t.co/Mm1yfzRBQz https://t.co/rkHvXWj2oO
The opening of ACR2 Convergence was a hit for all who signed up and viewed in. The day included the presidential address by outgoing president Dr. David Karp (UT Southwestern) and a keynote talk and interview with Dr. Seema Yasmin (Stanford).
