Cdn cohort of #PsA and CV events - u risk factors were associated with MACE and NSAIDS ⬆️ risk and TNFi ⬇️risk and poor HAQ⬆️ risk. #OP0030 @RheumNow @eular_org Too small events, lipids often absent and spanning 30+ yrs.

Once we add adalimumab in MTX-IR RA, can we dial down MTX & still keep control?
New data - now in East Asian pts (with already low MTX) says often yes, without ⬆️ADAb.
Obviously RA control 1st/2nd/3rd, but prob doesn’t have to be MTX 20 forever in everyone #EULAR2022 @RheumNow https://t.co/aZ0bsgY7dC

MIRACLE (love it!) study. High (max tolerated up to 25mg) vs low dose (6-8mg) MTX in combo with ADA in MTX-IR. Low dose non-inferior with better safety. Japanese population so may not be generalisable. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0062 https://t.co/l3CfzzM7mi https://t.co/lkjuoqLY56
