Day 4 was a half day closeout to the EULAR 2023 Congress. For me the big presentations were the late breaking abstracts, although there were other review and abstract sessions for those remaining. Many people missed the last day (June 3rd) of the meeting as a pending Milan airport strike on June 4th dictated last-minute changes to travel and learning. Here are a few of my favorite abstracts from the Late Breaker Session.

Some subjects in rheumatology seem to create contention the more they get explored, and one of those areas is a traditional crowd favourite for discussion at EULAR - clinically suspect arthralgias. At EULAR 2023 in Milan, the perfect platform was provided for an airing of grievances, in a debate entitled ‘Clinically suspect arthralgias: fact or myth’.

Day 2 at the international EULAR Congress meeting is always bigger and busier. There are more sessions to choose from and more audience questions in the big auditorium presentations.

There is a clear unmet need for new and effective therapies in primary Sjogren’s Syndrome (pSS) patients, as there are no current licensed therapies.
