#ClinicalPearl #SLE has ⬆️mortality until v advanced age and if not in remission or v low disease activity Mortality is higher. Ideas: control disease activity, prevent damage, limit prednisone. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 T Dormer Session #Lupus https://t.co/90cpsBVgAb

Rahman et al. Pooled safety data from IL23i guselkumab clinical trial programme in PsA. 1508 patients 2125 PY. No increase (and generally lower) than PBO. No IBD. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS1015 https://t.co/9otcpwW9ni

#OP0141 #EULAR2022 What do our #lupus patients think about Treat-to-target (T2T) and are they involved? A patient survey showed improvement in QoL as most important. They were open to T2T concept but concerned of more visits + new drugs. 61% felt they were involved @RheumNow https://t.co/rT500lhrih

Rahman et al shows factors associated with variability of fatigue in PsA are systemic disease 34%, joint disease 16%, skin involvement 12%, accounting for 62% and leaving a residual effeect of 38% that was unexplained and needing further research #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0025 https://t.co/RoqjS64Xjy

The CONSUL study @ProftDr showed there was no significant difference in Celecoxib(CEL)+Golimumab (GOL) vs GOL alone. The mSASSS change was 1.1 vs 1.7, p=0.79 between the 2 groups. The combination may be clinically relevant in high-risk progressors #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0018 https://t.co/AUOL7IDx9L
It’s good to be back into full, big meeting mode.
Highlights included a EULAR Recommendation Session, where updated guidelines were presented for the management of a) ANCA-associated Vasculitis, b) ASAS/EULAR recommendations for axSpA and c) RA. Here are a few of my favorites from Day 1.

ASRI @Gillianfitzger1 @bososhea @Sineadm15 Current smoking is associated with lower risk of uveitis and arthritis in males with axSpA. I wonder why this would be? @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS1001 https://t.co/3bKmyvI606

Sanchez-Bilbao et al. TCZ for large vessel GCA. Has been a concern due to limited LVV/imaging in RCTs 196 patients. Seems to work well. 20% sustained remission month 6, 60% month 12. Clinically significant reduction steroid doses as shown in figure. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS0802 https://t.co/Z0HEVal6RI

Dermatologists doing ultrasound (US) for earlier diagnosis of PsA? Grobelski et al showed in this study of 140 PsA patients, pre-US sensitivity/specifity was 81%/55%, post-US this changed to 62%/91%. Targeted US improved accuracy of referrals for PsA #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0029 https://t.co/iajqMuPqcd

Sex differences may affect the response to first line TNFi in AxSpA. Hellamund et al EuroSpA study showed the TNFi 6/12/24 month retention rate was lower in females (58%) compared to males (72%). Females had lower CRP level and higher PROs at baseline #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0020 https://t.co/ANgRYMxpat

MIRACLE study: High or Low dose MTX w/ ADA in eRA?
✨ LOWd (6-8mg/w) 38.4% non-inferior to HIGHd (>10mg/w) 44.8%
✨But safety profile looks better 9.1% vs 22.1% 👀
Are you already looking for minimal dose of MTX in patients treated w/ biologics?

RA patients close to the equator (i.e. ‘Global South’) get RA earlier in life than the temperate world.
Is it patient-level characteristics like smoking? No.
It’s country-level factors e.g. socioeconomic status.
Are rich world and poor world RA the same?
