      The rising placebo response rates in PsA trials are linked to global recruiting patterns, with more studies in less affluent countries. Limited access to healthcare may drive this trend, highlighting the need for awareness among stakeholders. Plenary Abstr#0722… https://t.co/FplpSlIamR https://t.co/NIp76IS6TZ

In this 🇧🇷 study in autoimmune dx patients, overrepresented in non-responders are: - rituximab pts - 'combined therapy' strategies needed for them but reassuring for the others! #ACR24 ABST0248 @RheumNow https://t.co/he1ICa9WZg
