In this study by Prof MAringer et al, majority of #lupus pts enrolled in TULIP 1/2 met the the EULAR/ACR 2019 #SLE criteria
🦋Of few pts not meeting new criteria, most were ANA- w/detectable anti-dsDNA/Smith Ab
Better outcomes for criteria+ in TULIP1/2?

Dr Coras on "ITIS" anti-inflammatory diet in RA. Improves fatigue after 2 weeks. Fatigue response dissociated from disease activity response. Open label, but promising. Fatigue remains one of our biggest challenges in RA. Abstr#1699 #ACR21 @RheumNow @ElenaNikiUK https://t.co/tBMqmWAy8m

Breakthrough COVID-19 in rheum pts: great data @rheum_covid
B-cell depleting agents overrepresented, esp in hospitalization in fully vaccinated - but plenty of others
Booster (& booster booster) vaccine doses + other mitigation badly needed!

I remember, not that long ago, inclusion body myositis evoked resignation, for pts & clinicians. A bizarre condition where standard of care was counselling/mitigation
Now there hope might be on the horizon
Exciting to see the science & a feasible target
