Rituximab/belimumab patients & COVID vaccination response:
may have had average antibody response
but there’s still the cellular response to consider too! Not as bad.
Still caution++, but when ritux really needed we’ll find a way despite COVID

#OP0236 #EULAR2022 Prof Schulze-Koops highlighted a mechanistic study that baricitinib therapy ex vivo suppressed autophagy, increased apoptosis, and reduced expression of adhesion molecules in #sjogren salivary glands. Next step should be randomised controlled trial @RheumNow https://t.co/dirmHY9cYJ

Sex differences in axSpA: we’re continuing to better understand the differences in imaging findings.
Existing MRI scoring may underserve axSpA in women.
Added to therapy differences, a lot to readdress for our female axSpA patients.

Gut microbiome of AS patients different from healthy controls. Different bacteria communities may be associated with disease activity.
So much more to digest....

Febuxostat vs allopurinol: CV risk population study
⭐️16% reduction in all-cause mortality among febuxostat users, mostly non-CV death reduction
⭐️CV safety non-inferior to allopurinol

Stimakovits et al. Influence of placebo vs active comparator in RA clinical trials. ACR response rates systematically higher in studies with active comparators. ACR20 OR 1.64 (1.44-1.86), ACR50 OR 1.46 (1.28-1.71), ACR70 OR 1.61 (1.28-2.02) @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS0563 https://t.co/x7PQH11oue

We’re in the #EULAR2022 highlights: basic/translational first. Wait, don’t go…
because Temra cells are cool. Up in RA pts who are TNFi-IR, & may actually be more than a bystander.
Understanding TNFi resistance is path to:
predicting it
knowing best what to do with it

#EULAR2022 POS0283: Do Rheums have Gout Stigma?
⭐️Stereotypes about pt related factors
⭐️Rheumatologists feel diet, exercise, wt loss more important in gout than RA, pharmacologic therapies less important than RA

PMR on the podium @profbdasgupta, with a positive phase 3!
Sarilumab in relapsing PMR (SAPHYR):
sari q2w+14w taper vs placebo+52w taper
underrecruited 118/280 (COVID) but still hit primary, almost all secondary
Better outcome + steroid-sparing: big
