Well certainly, despite the absence of synovitis, these pre-RA patients felt better on their 12m of abatacept. They could do more and hurt less.
That does count for something for many patients.
But wait, there’s more ⬇️

Abatacept for 12m in ACPA pos arthralgias probably doesn’t impact RA progression that much once the abatacept stops…
but are there other reasons you might want to give it? Read on in the next tweet⬇️

How much MTX do we need with adalimumab in RA? Can blood concentrations help?
MTX RBC polygluts:
- don’t seem to match to efficacy
- do seem match to safety, a bit
(no ADAb data here)
*One day* we’ll get better at what MTX dose is needed with TNFi #EULAR2023 OP0128 @RheumNow https://t.co/OGM3hxr4fG

#EULAR2023 #POS0618 This is cool! Researchers from Switzerland are developing new Quantitative Radiomic Risk Score (from HRCT) to stratify response to Anti-Fibrotic in #ILD. Data presented in pre-clinical study & paralleled molecular effects. Human study is in progress @RheumNow https://t.co/qAsWew4FEO

Are we going to treat hands OA with MTX?
Moderate effect on VAS pain at 6 and 12 months in a small RCT vs. PBO in hands OA WITH MRI detected synovitis.
Thoughts
1) Is it really OA?
2) Benefit Risk balance remains debatable

Remember to discuss bone density in your pts with #gout! Bone mineral density was significantly lower in pts with hyperuricemia, more so in males and elderly. Large cohort wirh 9017 pts from China! @EULAR2023 @rheumnow abst#AB1639 https://t.co/BGscJxMZno

Gut microbiome studies are implicated in all disease we study! 5 gut microbiota are suggested to have a causal relationship in #gout.
68k controls and 2k gout pts.
Can experts comment if it's just data mining or discovery? #EULAR2023 @rheumnow abst#ab1237 https://t.co/d1AkDPG8QR

#EULAR2023 #OP0046 With more effective therapies in #lupus, we should aim for bare minimum/cessation of steroid. A study using French database showed:
>12% were on =>5mg Pred/d, this associated with comorbidities & increased costs
14% on high dose Pred weren’t on HCQ
