      Getting more data on using deucravacitinib for PsO/PsA manifestations Impressive effect on scalp psoriasis (which often means a lot to patients) Given how safe it is, it's increasingly tempting to use more of it in mild-mod PsA #ACR24 PSORIATYK SCALP trial ABST1137 @RheumNow https://t.co/vxS3RSlIN0

      In case you needed more encouragement for recombinant zoster vaccination in RA patients: it prevents herpes zoster episodes, in the real world. RA pts in KP system n=1926 vaccinated matched 1:3 with non-vaccinated - HZ reduced 60% - PHN reduced 88% #ACR24 ABST0977 @RheumNow https://t.co/BryBrlv9K5
