SGLT2 inhibitors compared to DPP4i may be better at reducing risk for MACE & renal progression in patients with SLE/LN and diabetes. SGLT2i risk for MACE (HR 0.69, 95% CI 0.48-0.99), and renal progression (HR 0.71, 95% CI 0.51-0.98). abst# 1579 #ACRbest #ACR23 @rheumnow

Do you discuss HPV vax & cervical CA screening w/SLE & RA pts?
In this study, more women w/SLE discussed cervical CA screening w/their rheums(33.3% vs. 11.4% p<0.01) & more likely to have persistent abn paps on ffup
Similar HPV vax status for both grps

-CNI (VOC/TAC/CyA) alone (OR 1.4) or combined MMF (OR 2.1) was assoc with CR vs SOC (MMF/Cyclo)
-Less GI AEs & cytopenia in CNI

Karpouzas et al. MTX reduces IHD in males but not females with RA. 4362 patients. 66% lower risk MACE and 55% lower risk any ischaemic CVE. Abstr#1627 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/MC4W0dinUv https://t.co/1hkBoawt4b

RA males 81% increase MACE & 58% ischemic CVE
2 folds Males>Females in MTX non users
Makes MTX users reduction 66% & 55% risk MACE & ischemic CVE and no diff w/ females
MTX use not assoc w/ reduction MACE in females

RheumNow’s expanded coverage of the #ACR23 annual meeting is sponsored in part by Bristol Myers Squibb and UCB. All content is chosen by RheumNow and its faculty.
Pregnant women with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) face significantly increased risks of cardiovascular events (CVEs). This increased risk is often attributed to ARDs, its medications or comorbidities associated with it.

SMART study in RA, splitting MTX
Split dosing better at wk 16 but ~similar at wk 24
Caveat: wonky design from wk16-wk24 makes it hard to interpret?
Surprsingly, adverse events ~similar but smallish sample
Mostly supports my practice of splitting?

SMART study - MTX split into morning and evening once weekly vs all together. 253 patients. Split dosing better efficacy (DAS28 4.1 vs 4.5, p=0.03), more LFT elevation but less neutropenia. Abstr#1583 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/tkrds4uqQP

#ACR23 Abs #1641 found early referral & dx in PsA associated w/ better clinical outcomes. MDA & DAPSA remission over 3 years less likely after > 52 weeks from symptom onset to dx. Likely delays in females w/ less swollen joints & lower CRP/ ESR https://t.co/meVQ1UisKY @rheumnow https://t.co/EBN7wJfjzK

Split dose oral MTX (15/10mg) versus single dose (25mg) in RA RCT 250pts
EULAR good resp
16wks 22 vs 10% (sig)
24wks 37 vs 28% (ns)
50% more addition of 2nd csDMARD in single dose

SMART on MTX
Ab#1583 @RheumNow #ACR23
Single dose MTX 25 mg v Split dose (same day 15/10 mg). FA 5 mg 2x/wk. 16w can add csDMARD
Split 29% vs 22% - EULAR response improve - not signif. Better DAS28
Split: 35% added 2nd csDMARD vs. 54.5% in single dose
No stat diff in sAE
