🩸 Hb levels markers of RA activity and structural progression? Boston BRASS registry: 1500+ patients.
Low hb at headline associated w/ MTX TNFi and ⬆️ increase in TSS.
Not that surprising provided low Hb is a marker of systemic inflammation. #Abtr0786 #ACR21 @Rheumnow https://t.co/eQLGxsANkk

Does #RA treatment affect low Hb levels? Is there a relationship between Hb and radiographic progression?
#ACR21 Abs#0787
👉🏼Sustained improvements in Hb when treated with bio/non-bio DMARDs
👉🏼Low Hb assoc with incr radiographic progression

Dr Exarchou presents incidence of PsA in Sweden. 22/100000. 75% received DMARDs within 2 years, which seems high, so perhaps this is tip of iceberg with milder cases undiagnosed. Abstr#0571 #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/kANG6KBnOd

The rate of progression of nr-axSpA to AS is ~10% every 2 years. Study of 79 patients over 6 years, radiographic progression was 10.1% after 2 years (8/79), 8.3% between 2-4 years (4/48), and 12.5% between 4-6 years (3/24) @RheumNow #ACR21 Abst#0907 https://t.co/hOhpngANIl https://t.co/PiKDgiTES2
