Alright help me out here; this is pretty implausible, right? Why would be pts be 11% more adherent to UPA? What's the bio-plausibility here? UPA 10% better than other JAKs? Could do a network meta analysis; betting this doens't replicate #ACR24 @RheumNow Abstr#1362 https://t.co/vpPq3vu9Wf

No Increase in Cardiovascular Events with JAK Inhibitors in IBD Patients UMKC researchers have compared the use of JAK inhibitors versus tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, but failed to see an increase in major adverse… https://t.co/IOzckJIfYf https://t.co/8S6FnffVLG

TYK2/JAK1 in Dermato? Interesting pre-clinical study of brepocitinib... but we really just need clinical data Glad to see this is headed straight to a Phase 3! Hoping they allow IVIG: has been a problem with many/most/all? recent dermato studies #ACR24 @RheumNow Abstr#0882 https://t.co/KS8fTMBpPR

In this large 🇦🇺 RA cohort, median time on treatment for upadacitinib was lot higher than other JAKi (28mo vs 17mo) Why? Patient selection, or a real difference between JAKi? Would really like more comparative effectiveness data between JAKi #ACR24 OPAL group ABST1370 @RheumNow https://t.co/OU2ayzqIc8

Spicy network SRMA, 123pts w/JAK-TNF-PLBO TNF >> JAK w/respect to malignancy (expected) & better than PLBO (spicy!) JAK > PLBO for heme cancers (makes sense); no significant (but slight trend) toward PLBO > JAK for all cancer The debate continues #ACR24 @RheumNow Abstr#0989 https://t.co/tBnb02gyzF

Which RA patients are at increased risk of JAKi adverse events? Does disease activity matter? in the upadacitinib ph3 trials, high disease activity pts had more: serious infections HZ MACE VTE Active RA is a massive contributor to many AEs in JAKi pts #ACR24 ABST1393 @RheumNow https://t.co/DlFf9Sfbja

Slick poster, but must be careful w/real world data. Big risk of confounding/channeling bias Pts with MACE risk (not always well-characterized by ICD codes) also less likely to receive JAK & therefore less liekly to have subsequent MACE #ACR24 @RheumNow Abstr#1394 https://t.co/lilU0byJ1s
