Prediction of RA early arthritis & clinically suspect arthralgia pts w/ AI analysis of MRIs scans:
✔️Feasible
✔️Accurate AUC 0.683 EA group AUC 0.727 CSA group
✔️Peformance = human experts
✚ Could identify new imaging biomarkers

🚨EULAR PtC clinical & imaging features suspicious for progression to PsA
Main take home messages ⬇️⬇️
Obesity, Nail Disease, Extensive PsO, Arthralgia, US detected synovio-entheseal
involvement/abnormalities in US = risks factors of developing PsA in PsO pts.

Provan et al. large scandinavian registry study: 🫁ILD risk in RA & PsA initiating b/tsDMARDs
HR ILD RA=10
HR ILD PsA=5
No increase risk w/ MTX and b/tsDMARDs but RA HR ILD 1.7 RTX vs. ETA: confounding by indication?

#EULAR2023 #OP0051 4-year Pooled Analyses of 3 x Anifrolumab RCTs in #lupus (inc. LTE) showed:
- LLDAS was attained earlier & more cumulative time was spent in LLDAS in anifrolumab compared to placebo groups

Autoimmune disease diagnoses slowly on the rise, despite reduced smoking - but that’s now 10% of the population, & many patients have more than one. Most are lifelong.
Surely this needs more investment??

Scandinavian RA registry study shows reassuring data on CV risk in RA🫀
Acute Coronary Syndrom incidence rates are similar in RA pts achieving remission & general pop & is similar whether RA pts reach remission using MTX or TNFi.

Data from combined big Scandinavian population registries looking at both RA and PsA, ILD development, & MTX exposure
Here’s the ILD risk for methotrexate.
Can we stop this MTX misinformation? No more besmirching a really useful drug for our patients #EULAR2023 OP0006 @RheumNow https://t.co/7swqAYchDC

Interstitial lung disease in RA and PSA in b/tsDMARD treated patients with MTX - there is no increased risk of developing ILD above the background risk of RA and PsA vs general population Sella Aarrestad Provan Abst#OP0006 @RheumNow https://t.co/yJsrmraeZ5

Comorbidities and metabolic burden in PsA:
-Occur EARLY
-Early PsA pts > multiple comorbidities & > CV morbidity vs. age-matched early RA pts
Independent of BMI & obesity
Time to address these as part of dis pathogenesis in PsA

AxSpA can be unequivocally diagnosed in the first 2 years of onset of chronic back pain with 30% definite with HLA-B27+ and imaging being the key SpA features from the SPACE cohort by

With all the benefits of MRI and expert rheumatologists, do our diagnoses of axSpA stick, two years later?
Overwhelmingly yes, but sometimes we do actually have to change our minds. Beware the set and forget for our clinical diagnoses

New benefit/risk outlook 👀 on ORAL surveillance
2 subgrps:
🟢RA w/ no previous Hx of atherosclerotic CV dis = TOFA at least as good as TNFi
AND risk of MACE is comparable 🛑RA w/ HxASCVD = efficacy TOFA = TNFi AND > risk of MACE

#EULAR2023 Abstr #OP0048 What happened if we taper steroid in #lupus patients who are Serologically Active Clinically Quiescent? A cohort study in Asia showed:
- Tapering was NOT associated with subsequent flare
- Tapering reduced damage in those on =>5mg/day
