RA as a young woman used to mean kids were only a distant thought.
Japanese RA pts n=280 asked whether RA onset meant wanting fewer children & why.
Confidence improving across the board over time.
We want to give our RA pts choices to live their life!

This new risk model for systemic AID is very welcome!
Variables: age, female, higher ANA titer, higher platelet count, disease-specific autoantibody & billing code count.

These US Medicare data show us what we've all suspected:
PMR patients stuck on steroid get the fractures, heart attacks, & infections that land them in hospital.
And it costs $$$
Hopefully PMR steroid-sparing Rx can change this!

Difficult to treat RA is not an homogeneous group!
Trajectory analysis 60months shows 4 different clusters
Cluster 2 = 1/3 of patients, do better but never reach LDA.
The ones Fibromyalgia, OA and other conditions blurring assessment?
