Talking about tapering studies in inflammatory arthritis, but true throughout all of rheumatology:
Not all flares are equal.
This area is full of nuance, we need to think more closely about how we study them.

#POS1112 #EULAR2022 A crossover RCT assessed effect of weight- and non-weight bearing exercises on type 2 collagen in knee #osteoarthritis. Small rise in collagen turnover markers initially for 24hrs. Gradual rise later on was contributed to cardiovascular influence @RheumNow https://t.co/AOxdFNihPR

Shall we include US findings in CASPAR criteria? ⚡️
Adding US tenosynovitis
and/or enthesitis
- improves Specificity 91% vs. 68%
-while maintaining sensitivity 92% vs. 96%

Dr Nash @drpnash Baseline determinants of pain response in IL23i guselkumab. Gus improved pain by week 2. Higher baseline pain, lower fatigue, lower TJC + predictors, NSAID use - predictor @RheumNow #EULAR2022 POS1070 https://t.co/4aNz9IQySj

The potential for patients to benefit from digital health technologies in rheumatology is multifaceted, upside might be enormous.
There's so much space for us all, but there are factors in many domains where it can all go wrong.
We need to raise standards.

New in AS. Upadacitinib 15mg od was significantly more effective than placebo over 14 weeks in AS bDMARD-IR (ASAS40 45% vs 18% and the onset of effect seen by week 4), no new safety risks identified in the SELECT-AXIS 2 study by Van de Heijde et al #EULAR2022 @RheumNow POS0306 https://t.co/LCQBf38GWe

CorEvitas PsA Registry (1000+ pts)
Analysis of biologics prescription according to disease domains
No real surprise to see that IL-17i were prescribed more frequently in pts w/ PsO BSA>10% at BL
Overall first line TNFi 40% > IL-17i 14%

Everything's better with MTX
Controlled RA on b/tsDMARDs: can we taper MTX?
maintaining remission pooled OR 0.81 (0.68-0.97)
Unless I'm reading it wrong:
it's true many will be fine, but
keeping MTX adds benefit (even in short term, before ADAb)

If rheumatoid arthritis comes and goes before a rheumatologist lays their hands on it, is it really RA?
We're born skeptical on this. Ronald van Vollenhoven poses questions on what it means for studying drug-free remission in established RA disease #EULAR2022 @RheumNow https://t.co/9GJoqYtVBP
