      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

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
