Can we identify 1st Trimester predictors of adverse pregnancy outcome (APO) in #lupus? Dr Larosa studied women in 🇫🇷 (N=238; 98% on #HCQ; 86% had SLEDAI=0). 34(14%) had APO. Higher SLICC damage and LAC+ve predicted APO but not LLDAS/DORIS Remission #EULAR2021 #OP0295 @RheumNow https://t.co/423sSEKLFY

Why do black women with #lupus have poor #HRQoL? Dr Kimble used untargeted metabolomic profiling in N=23 black women SLE and N=21 black women nonSLE. The former had profiles consistent with⬇️energy production resulted in ⬆️fatigue and other symptoms #EULAR2021 #POS0173 @RheumNow https://t.co/GYzmpf8GwW

More novel target (IL23-i; Risankizumab) for #psoriaticarthritis👏. Dr Ostor presented results from Phase III KEEPsAKE2. 46% of patients were Bio-IR. 51.3% of RZB-treated vs 26.5% Placebo-tx achieved ACR20 response at 6mo (p<0.001). No major safety #EULAR2021 #OP0228 @RheumNow https://t.co/6AIGCNMApv

Is Dissociation a component of #lupus brain fog ☁️? Dr Monahan administered DES scale (score =>25 = Dissociation) to N=339 pts; of which 97 (27%) had NPSLE. Only 13% had abnormal score. No difference in score btw NPSLE vs non-NPSLE #EULAR2021 #POS0709 @RheumNow https://t.co/aarL8gdCDM

Israeli study of all cause mortality in PsA vs general population
⭐️no increased mortality in PsA group
⭐️leading causes of death was cancer in both groups
⭐️age, male sex, BMI, socioeconomic status, PsO associated with ⬆️mortality, NOT DMARDs

Dr Bilgin presents on PLEX in AAV. I'm not a believer post-PEXIVAS despite attempts to slice and dice that data and this seems to show no evidence to change my mind @RheumNow #EULAR2021 Abstr#POS0255 https://t.co/U3zwt619lc

➡️ Choosing therapies in AxSpA:
⭐️TNFi (ADA), IL17i (SEC), Jaki (UPA); however, axPsA may be different than AxSpA. Need more trials to assess!

Step-wise vs rapid escalator approach for PsO & PsA?
⭐️CONTROL study:
➡️bDMARD-naive active PsA w/ IR to MTX for at least 4w randomized to ADA+MTX vs escalated MTX (avg dose 21.8 mg/wk, 55% PO, 36% SQ)
➡️41.5% MDA at wk 16 w/ ADA+MTX vs 13.1%

If a patient w/ PsA has high disease activity, would you take the rapid escalator approach (bDMARD) or a step-wise approach (csDMARD to start & escalate per response)?
Be sure to check out Dr. L Coates great talk on personalized tx approach! #EULAR2021 @RheumNow @ElaineHusniMD
