What is the meaning of mechanical stress-induced sacroiliac BMO MRI after childbirth in healthy women?
5yrs follow up MRI study shows:
-decrease in BMO
-1/3 BMO @ 5-year follow-up
-15% ASAS definition of sacroiliitis
-No correlation w/ symptoms

Understudied neurological involvement đź§ in RA
in pts > 65 vs. matched HC
-larger lateral cerebral ventricles
-brain atrophy
-shrinkage of thalamus + frontal cortical regions
-association w/ clinical depression

BARI reduces nociplastic pain, small cohort RA n=13
-wk 12 ACR FM score 14 vs 10.5 p=0.03
-fMRI data: reduction connectivity between DMN and posterior insula & between IPL & anterior/middle insular regions
Directs mechanims yet to be investigated

Is RA always preceded by clinically suspect arthralgia? Cohort 650+ pts CSA = 83 pts no CSA = 616 pts
Pts w/ no CSA: -older -more frequent acute onset of symptoms -higher SJC -increased CRP -less ACPA+ No sure how accounted for memory bias

The development of JAK inhibitors represents an advance for the treatment of inflammatory rheumatic diseases. However, the enthusiasm in using this target has waned since the publication of the ORAL surveillance clinical trial in 2022. Subsequently, both the FDA and EMA issued a warning on using JAKi in patients with certain risk factors, e.g., ≥65 years, at increased risk of MACE, current smoker or past smoker and at increased risk of cancer,

When would I use
#Aclasta vs #Prolia since #denosumab has LESS #fractures
▶️younger women with #osteoporosis requiring Rx due to long safety
▶️less wearing off when stopping it
▶️noncompliant Pts as prolia reverses effect when dose is missed
