ROMO vs DEN.
Romosozumab was superior to denosumab
(ROMO +7.3±4.5%; p< 0.001) and (DEN +2.3±3.1%; p< 0.001) in raising the spine BMD but not in hip at month 12 in chronic GC users with high fracture risk

Who uses #cannabis in #rheumatic #diseases? Those who smoke, have higher pain, more anxiety, poor sleep are more likely to have used cannabis for their rheumatic disease. Half of the >2900 respondents have tried #cannabis. Use of #biologics reduced use. #980 @RheumNow @ACRheum https://t.co/DQDRQN40zR

Wouldn’t it be great to be able to predict which women with RA would improve during pregnancy, & which would worsen? We’d be able to adjust DMARDs accordingly.
Gene expression signatures might tell us more - one key cluster here was 21x predictive.

#ACR23 Abstr# 2488 Phase 2 RCT #SLE showed more patients on ABBV-599 HD (elsubrutinib (BTK-i) + UPA (JAK-i)) and UPA monotherapy met primary & secondary endpoints vs PBO at WK48W. No major malignancy/VTE concerns. No added superiority by adding BTK-i vs UPA alone @RheumNow https://t.co/MUN2o75gEE

During "Rashes in Rheumatology talk at #ACR23, Dr. Katherine Shaw does not routinely use HCQ for DM skin manifestations.
⭐️Only ~10% of DM patients respond to monotherapy with HCQ but potential increased risk of hypersensitivity, especially in MDA5-DM
➡️Suspect that slight HCQ… https://t.co/aRmFmzuAum

HCQ and risk of retinopathy 👁️
DoD database HCQ 44000+ females & 10000+ males
Risk retinopathy HR 1.5
Variations according to diagnosis SLE higher risk vs. RA, more so in males HR 2, females HR 1.7
No adjustment on HCQ dose

Erosive hand #OA may be more painful than treated #RA patients. The burden of OA is often not alked about, and this study highlights it! @RheumNow #ACR23 https://t.co/jLbvtMmgE0

#ACR23 Abstr# 2489 I can’t wait for Phase 3 RCT results as I have many #SLE patients with refractory cutaneous lupus. Post-hoc analyses of Phase 2 RCT of Deucravacitinib showed its efficacy (CLASI-50) over PBO across all CLE subtypes @RheumNow https://t.co/G7edkAU18J
