      Can we do more to routinely assess fracture risk in RA?

      Can we do more to routinely assess fracture risk in RA? In RA pts ≥65, hip fracture & MOF are more common in pts with active disease, worse with higher disease activity ➡️Need better and more frequent bone health assessments in our RA pts Ab1748 #ACR24 @RheumNow https://t.co/whfnLnkpLd

      Where there’s smoke, there’s flare: how pollution fuels RA
      11 months 1 week ago
      Associations between air pollution and disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis have previously been demonstrated. Abstract 0978 sought to determine the association between fire smoke and other pollutant exposures with the risk of RA and RA-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD).
