      ANCA status does not inform IL-5 agent response in EGPA patients Terrier et al. analyzed the OLE of MANDARA and compared ANCA+ and ANCA- subgroups: - similar rates of remission - similar rates of GC withdrawal - comparable relapse rates @RheumNow #ACR25 Abst 1594

      Abstract 1657: Can LLMs track medication history? GPT-4 outperformed most LLMs in identifying TNFi start/stop events and reasons for switch. đź’Š Common reasons for TNFi switching: lack of effectiveness, adverse events, and insurance/cost barriers. @RheumNow #ACR25 https://t.co/5FUR9tBoyu
