VTE/VZV in baricitinib & tofacitinib seem unrelated to on-target effects.
Is there VTE/VZV-related off-target culpable binding?
Computer (AI) says no, but...
bari binds PDE10A2 (an antipsychotic target), lab confirmed. Missing link to reduced pain?

Each line is a different country's JAK inhibitor for RA registry, looking at drug stopped for adverse events.
Why all the variation?
(Until we sort that out, we'll struggle to assess JAKi post-marketing safety...)

#OP0089 Do you know the pain catastrophizing score #PCS ? Cross-sectional study of 1199 #RA, #PsA & #ax-SpA patients: Low PCS were more often in remission as high PCS in RA & ax-SpA. PCS was associated with remission rates in RA and ax-SpA, but not in PsA #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/MYiLmPPbDN

#EULAR2021: Reduced likelihood of reaching disease remission in patients with RA or PsA who have concomitant depression and anxiety per prospective NOR-DMARD study. Social state and mental health factors play an important role in noresponse in T2T approach. @RheumNow https://t.co/Vl0Xkz2SNF

Using data of the E3N prospective observational study - including 98995 women - passive smoking in childhood or adulthood could be found as risk factor for #RA and potentially earlier onset

Data from E3N-EPIC cohort: passive tabagism in both childhood (HR 1.42 95CI [1.07 to 1.88]) and adulthood (HR 1.27 95CI [1.02 to 1.57]) associated with higher risk of RA in non smoking women (adjusted on age passive smoking educational level BMI)

Towards personalized therapy in RA with @MeganHanlon4's work: the synovial macrophage sub-population CD206+CD163+ is significantly enriched in RA synovial tissue, correlated with disease activity and baseline levels predict response to therapy.

Insights in RA and colon:
Naïve RA patients
-higher degree of intestinal permeability vs age and sex matched ctrls in colonic biopsies
-higher serum levels of bacterial translocation markers (LBP and CD14s); reduced in resp to DMARDs. #EULAR2021 @RheumNow #OP0035 @ClaireDaien
