#ClinicalPearl. Why do doctors prescribe #JAKi in RA? Efficacy, fast onset, X-ray inhibition, can work as monotherapy, remission - in order of diminishing frequency BUT I will add access and oral (convenience). POS0680 @RheumNow @eular_org #EULAR2022 https://t.co/XHtNqguqvh

Boers et al. GLORIA trial of long term 5mg pred in RA. Titled as "favourable balance of benefit and harm". I cannot agree. 24% increase adverse events, NNH 9, for DAS28 0.37 better at 1 year, and really no difference after that. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0263 https://t.co/eO4f1CjH5q https://t.co/VyyZm1QvYy

Deep learning can be used to distinguish seropositive RA from seronegative RA and PsA based on MRI.
Early changes in PsO may suggest a PsA-like MRI pattern may be present!
Is this how we predict which PsO -> PsA?

Beware of paradoxical low lipids in RA!
⭐️ETN+MTX vs MTX T2T:
Early ETN: increased in HLD, lesser LDL, differs from MTX. Correlates with clinical disease activity

Fatigue in early RA:
⭐️Does not show direct effect between inflammation on fatigue
⭐️Suggests broader indirect effect of psychosocial aspects of wellbeing (pain, mental health, sleep, disease perception) plays larger role

Szekanecz et al. ORAL Surveillance. Geographic differences in MACE largely driven by history CVD and high baseline risk in North America and ROW. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS0110 https://t.co/cR6a7N2KP5

The third SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in IMID (RA, SpA, PsA, UC, CD) patients on immunosuppression improves the serologic response follow the first two vaccine doses and allowed them to close the gap compared to the two-dose vaccinated controls #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0192 Jyssum et al

RNA sequencing in 11 RA-ILD patients vs 9 RA pts
⭐️Distinct gene expression in RA-ILD with type 1 IFN response, neutrophil activation, and degranulation and CCR1 chemokine interactions

#EULAR2022 OP0278:
Increase in risk of CVA compared to general population ~1.2x risk
⭐️This is unchanged between the pre-biologic (1972-1998) and the post-biologic treatment era
⭐️Interesting finding: smoking rate same over time in RA, despite decr in Norway in gen pop
