#ACR21 #Abstr1909 📢We need to stress the importance of hydroxychloroquine adherence to our patients. Adherence (>90% of the time) reduced premature CVD mortality by 52% in #rheumatoidarthritis and #lupus. The study didn’t adjust for smoking @RheumNow https://t.co/D9pGqwWhje https://t.co/R6r3cSexUB

Can we predict who will develop #RA-ILD?
Perhaps anti-MAA is the answer!
#ACR21 Abs#1916
👉🏼⬆️anti-MAA antibody assoc with incident ILD risk
👉🏼Associations are antigen &
isotype dependent
👉🏼Antibody measurement may be useful to risk stratify for RA-ILD

ORAL Surveillance: MACE and malignancy are getting all the attention...
but did you know that non-zoster infections are also more likely with tofacitinib vs TNFis?

ACR/EULAR Classification Criteria for Large Vessel Vasculitis (TAK/GCA), updated from prior to include imaging
Must emphasize typical disclaimers; these are for classification, not specifically for diagnosis
Great effort and useful result, esp for trials

⭐️Ustekinumab+MTX vs. UST+PBO in PsA?
➡️Additional MTX has no positive impact on UST efficacy for arthritis, enthesitis, dactylitis, skin, QoL, & function.
*️⃣Thus, no evident to add or maintain ongoing MTX when starting UST
