Rheumatoid Arthritis
Two large retrospective cohort studies presented by the team at Mayo Clinic, Rochester MN examine the burden of stroke, as well as overall and cause-specific mortality in people with RA (POS0591 and POS0592).

This can be coming to a clinic near you. Hotspot/ROI ratio (HRR) values from high-resolution thermographic marker in the detection of joint inflammation, compared to joint ultrasound showed excellent performance in the differentiation of joints with US inflammatory activity from… https://t.co/1unRxxgHAd https://t.co/tOPDSxzvwB

Greatest chance of sustained drug-free remission (DFR) is seen in early RA pts, NEVER requiring a biologic (esp if seronegative blue line). ERA on biologics never achieve DFR (yellow). Leiden EAC clinic study of 627 ERA pts Abstr# POS0615 #EULAR2024 https://t.co/zpCG6oSE3T

Day 2 at EULAR 2024 was a big poster day for many with several good sessions and oral presentations on Preventing RA, new vasculitis therapies and a session devoted to the 50th anniversary of the Moll & Wright Criteria.

I was allocated to bring down the warning, & I did apologise up front to both the EMA and Janet #EULAR2024. It's a tough gig regulating impactful medicines with risk-benefit, especially when our world is full of other medicines with risk-benefit trade-offs (like prednisolone). 2/ https://t.co/6YPhYHbhg8

So how do we get from slightly increased numbers of uncommon events in a single study (ORAL Surveillance)?
Regulators think differently to us, which partly is the difficulty of a restrictive warning.
So being the Aussie I am, I asked - does it pass the 'pub test'? 4/ #EULAR2024 https://t.co/Ih9H87wH22

Dual seropositivity (rheumatoid factor and/or anti-citrullinated protein antibodies) as well as shared epitope are known to be associated with poor prognosis and structural damage in RA.

What happens when RA patients only on csDMARDs want to stop their meds?
in BIO-FLARE, only half flared within 6mo of stopping all csDMARDs suddenly. They’ve got a clinical predictive model. Many milder patients ask, and could benefit!

Risk of developing RA increased in antibody double-positive and single-positive compared to seronegative individuals. Highest risk in double-positive in first year. Single-positive increased risk of RA for up to five years after testing. In double-positive the risk remained… https://t.co/XLDHK4d4AE https://t.co/3Ek8knGExU

OP0201- clinical characteristics of pts failing ≥2 b/tsDMARDs
D2T RA pts characterised by
⏰ Earlier disease
⏰ Later initiation of DMARD therapy
Discontinuation of drugs mainly due to inefficacy regardless of number of drug lines or MOAs used
