#EULAR2020 #op0050 RCT ph4 results: in inadequately controlled PsA addition of ADA results in better outcomes in terms MDA, ACR20, PASI75, HAQ-DI&LEI as opposed to MTX dose escalation @RheumNow https://t.co/iMgCkRawCl

Lots of talk about best bDMARDs in RA-ILD, but what about in RA-assoc bronchiectasis?
@Yuz6Yusof found rituximab had better 'lung survival' vs TNFi (similar baseline stats)
Something to consider in these difficult-to-treat pts?

For patients on bDMARDs having surgery, we worry about post-op delayed wound healing.
In this Japanese cohort, TCZ use was a risk factor.
Unclear if meds withheld, but given IL-6 upreg in wound healing, it's plausible TCZ might have worse outcomes??

Hand OA Rx strikes out. HCQ Rx neg and colchicine Trial negative. I wouldn’t put hand OA as same category of no Rx as for SSc and Sjogrens but agree though nuts to crack @eular_org @CRASCRRheum @earlyarthritis #EULAR2020 https://t.co/QRe3UpKpbz

#EULAR2020 THU0260 LESS IS BEST when it comes to steroids: Singapore 10 yr retrospect SLE study noted GCs dose is an independent predictor of mortality for hospitalized infection even when adjusted for disease activity.

#tacrolimus #prograf is non inferior to #MMF #cellcept in #lupus #nephritis induction. We’ve been doing it for years but great to see some solid RCT data behind this. #rheumatology #SLE #autoimmune https://t.co/CblD4GaXCp

#EULAR2020 Dr. V Ritschl:EULAR Task Force on Patient Adherance: 30-80% of pts do not adhere to Rx. resulting in ⬆️dz severity, pain, fatigue, depression, decreased in function, physical activity. HCPs should discuss adherance reg. & explore factors affecting adherance. @RheumNow
