BUT.....the SEC results were significant if you only looked at those with moderate to severe rotator cuff tendinopathy? Curious study, I think worthy of a well designed prospective trial. https://t.co/kqGink3sjU

Close call between LLDAS and DORIS Remission as a treat-to-target in #SLE. Thank you for participating in the polls #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/r3OnSrmQkH

Results are out. The majority would use #anifrolumab to treat refractory skin and joints disease #SLE. Thank you for participating in the polls #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/wguBCkhZ7B

No clear winner here. The majority would use #IL23 inhibitors as either 2nd or 3rd line bDMARDs and for #psoriaticarthritis with severe #psoriasis. Thank you for participating in the polls #EULAR2021 @RheumNow https://t.co/b8wzaRVTqw

This is by far the biggest rheum dx COVID vaccinated cohort described I'm aware of 👏
Looking forward to full paper, & we will need data with more pts, more details, cellular response etc.
Nevertheless, invaluable & reassuring.
So glad to see it at #EULAR2021 LB0003 @RheumNow https://t.co/jsHZjLdCTT

Israel was early to COVID vaccinate on mass scale. How well did the vaccine work in their rheum dx pts?
rheum pts n=686 (vs controls n = 121)
- fewer w immunogencity, but not bad (86% vs 100%)
- safety good
- dx activity stable

Rituximab in PMR. Intriguing
proof of concept (SB?) RCT
(1:1, total n=47 (recent dx 38/relapsing 9))
17w rapid PNL taper
ritux 1g x1
21w:
steroid-free remission: 48% v 21%
PNL ≤5mg/d: 100% v 54%
effect mainly from recent dx pts
We do need options!

Treat-to-target is the robust algorithm that dictates all modern RA treatment.
What's the target? Ummmm
We use it in everyone, right? (both doctors & pts say 66%)
We at least use the principles sometimes, right? (86% of us)
