      Belimumab’s Sustained Impact in Lupus SLE a chronic autoimmune multi-system inflammatory condition, can present with various, sometimes severe, clinical manifestations, leading to high levels of morbidity including impact on quality of life. https://t.co/4Gf5SJN5FG https://t.co/LxCjLQkaYQ
      Glucocorticoids (GC) have been the mainstay of treatment in SLE for nearly three quarters of a century. GC induce a range of anti-inflammatory effects, quickly relieve some symptoms and lower mortality in some life-threatening flares. However, they also have multiple side effects that limit the duration of treatment, as well as the dose used. Accordingly, the 2023 EULAR recommendations for SLE set a target dose of ≤5mg/day. Is low dose GC an

      #EULAR2024 LBA0007 More evidence on deep Bcell depletion in #lupus. Open label trial of Daratumumab, anti-CD38 plasma cell Ab showed rapid reduction in biomarker endpoint, dsDNA, as well as SRI-4 & CLASI-A at Wk12. No SAE but longer F/U needed since IgG reduced by 6g/L @RheumNow https://t.co/IIFPYV9oIr

      Recommendation for management of fatigue in people with rheumatic disease. Considering fatigue as a surrogate for inflammation and changing medication accordingly is part of it. I will also add yearly blood work including: 1- VitD 2-HBA1c and LDl 3-TsH. https://t.co/3QvPqMxZSN
