      New biomarkers 14-3-3η multiplex autoantibody assay improves axSpA diagnosis, especially in HLA-B27– patients. Combined with CRP & HLA-B27, detection rose to 99% (training) & 91.4% (evaluation). In HLA-B27– cases, 14-3-3η lifted detection to 70.6% & 55%. Abstract 0531 @RheumNow

      Using ChatGPT to diagnose axSpA, in 10 low back pain cases, it outperformed clinicians in diagnostic precision (75% vs. 60%) and sensitivity (85% vs. 80%), completing the task 5x faster. Specialty framing (e.g., Rheum vs Neuro) didn’t affect accuracy. Abstract 0530 @RheumNow https://t.co/YMMC4XIX9m
