TOFFIFE RCT in colchicine-resistant FMF. Tocilizumab normalises SAA and CRP/ESR with PGA response in 20-25%. Maybe response criteria too strict, or maybe TCZ only effective for subgroup of patients @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0043 https://t.co/kNs8DMzXFB https://t.co/QMDk1IUkjx

Adami et al on risk of RMDs with air pollution. Mainly RA - OR 1.4 for PM10, 1.6 for PM2.5 @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0071 https://t.co/zDr2jMsIWv https://t.co/f0Y2rQxWRD

Can you train #dermatologists to do ultrasound to detect #PsA if pt has joint pain. POCUS of up to 3 painful joints. US ⬆️derm suspicion of PsA- but this is not feasible in busy offices and no reimbursement @RheumNow #EULAR2022 @eular_org OP0029 https://t.co/9a3gDgIBp0

Arthralgia + subclinical inflammation in MRI without RA, treated with MTX + depo steroid injection
▶️In High risk patients, delayed development of synovitis, but does not prevent in long-term
▶️Reduction in disease burden on MTX Rx

Zhao et al. Infection risk is ⬆️ in incident AAV. aHR 3.8 for first infection and 3.8 for infectious mortality. 3.2 fold increase in number infections. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0093 https://t.co/LSe4vJqZym https://t.co/tNqI2m30SD

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

Krijbolder et al on MTX to prevent RA in clinically suspect arthralgia. No effect on arthritis free survival (80 vs 82%). Some delay in RA onset in high-risk group. But there was a sustained improvement in symptoms in MTX group @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0070 https://t.co/0CPIP51yQd https://t.co/kWNmw1YzrH

How do we treat fatigue in our PsA patients? Guselkumab PsA trials showed systemic disease activity/function, joint manifestations, and skin involvement accounted for 62% of variability in fatigue. How do we account for the other 38%?

Early RA - does the biologic matter?
NORD-STAR: largely seropos, high CRP early RA
Perhaps unsurprising abatacept shone vs TNFi or TCZ
One of the few pt subgroups with plausible rationale & some data for comparative advantage. Shame it’s less & less common?

Combined Nordic registry data on demyelination and inflammatory neuropathy with TNFi. Demyelination 2-3 times higher in SpA vs RA. No difference between ETN and monoclonals. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0060 https://t.co/SK9s7aVaZk https://t.co/hZ5VaoTe4X

#ClinicalPearl Update on @eular #rheumatoid #arthritis guidelines. Reassuringly not much of an update. Very reasonable discussion of #JAKi safety. @RheumNow Day 1 of #EULAR202 T2T, shared decision making, limit #glucocorticoids to shortest time. Change MOA or not, after failure.

#POS0190 #EULAR2022 Disappointing news. Despite +ve Phase 2 RCT, Results from Phase 3 RCTs of Baricitinib in #lupus is inconclusive
💠SRI4 was met in BRAVE1 but not BRAVE2 despite identical study
💠BILAG MSK & Skin improved in BRAVE1 only
BICLA wasn’t reported @RheumNow https://t.co/IfJRYEwFY8

Combined nordic registers study: 🧠 demyelinating and inflammatory neuropathies in 50000+ patients starting TNFi
📍DML SpA > RA
📍INP SpA = RA
📍ETA = Other anti TNFi
But no csDMARDs control group
