The Plants for Joints RA continuation made it to #ACR24!

Gains made during program were sustained,
can't undersell lifestyle as part of the overall picture!

The TAPIR Trial on GPA shows higher (15.5%) relapse in the 0 mg prednisone arm vs. 4.2% in the 5 mg arm (OR 4.22), but does not impact PROs. Key finding: benefit of 5 mg/day seen only in non-rituximab regimens (20% vs. 2.6%, OR 9.50). Abstr#0774 Plenary 1 @RheumNow #ACR24… https://t.co/5DjW5Zwh0J https://t.co/UnsVPzJfs6

Great summary of treatment choices in PsA:

2. Identify comorbidities/pt preferences
3. Still unmet needs for ttx in inflammatory eye disease

Managing health conditions is rapidly evolving as patients increasingly turn to online resources for answers—over 65% search for health-related questions online.

What agent to pick after a TNFi has failed: another TNFi or a non-TNFi?
Would a TNFi drug conc help (i.e. if low, increased clearance due to secondary failure)?
In this RCT @maartenskliniek, this TDM approach was no better than random selection. Argh

Seronegative RA: sometimes there's an assumption that they'll eventually get a 'real' diagnosis
at @MayoClinic, 85% of patients diagnosed with seronegative RA kept their diagnosis at 10 years.
Usually, seroneg RA means seroneg RA!

Real-world data from @k_lauper's Jak-pot study (>9000 RA pt) on how quickly b/tsDMARDs work:
JAKi, TNFi quicker than tocilizumab, abatacept
Even though they all get to a similar place eventually, some get there quicker
(but worth any safety tradeoffs?)
