Watch: Another TYK2 Ticks the Boxes
Dr. Janet Pope discusses late-breaking abstract L12 presented at #ACR23.
https://t.co/1SGuIFOWt6 https://t.co/tb4LRbmfiI
We have known about the VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) syndrome for nearly 3 years, but there has been relatively little to say about how to treat it. To date there have been over twice as many publications about VEXAS (263 publications) as there have been patients described with respect to treatment strategies (116 patients). One of the late breaking abstracts may finally have rectified this imbalance.
Should rheumatologists be counseling patients on cervical cancer prevention and screening? The data from Abstract #1479 at ACR Convergence 2023 suggests that this should be an important conversation with our female lupus patients.

Taylor et al. Novel blood assay for sero+ and sero- RA. Differentiates well from other diseases. May be very valuable for sero- RA diagnosis = sensitivity 83.7%, +LR 21.46, and -LR 0.17. Needs validation. Abstr#2586 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/jw41F8YohE https://t.co/kXi3km0b07

Last abstract of #ACR23 was #ACRBest
Plasma cfDNA signatures (synovial mapped) to identify RA vs OA, other inflamm arthritis
Great performance, even with seroneg RA
A blood test to:
diagnose
?phenotype
?identify best b/tsDMARD
Could be massive

Take home
Symptomatic #Rx of ACPA+ people WITH #DMARD is too late to alter risk of #RA when drug is d/c
AI to read joint erosions on X-ray May be ‘too little too late’
#Steroids in #RA increase #MACE even after d/c

Identifying GCA diagnosis and disease activity through proteomics from plasma:
diagnosis looks good
disease activity looks harder
(Much like a lot of things in GCA, really)
