#EULAR2025 Abstr#OP0198 Long-term extension study of Phase 2 #SLE showed efficacy of Upadacitinib and UPA + Elsubrutinib were maintained through to Week 104. Those who switched from PBO at WK48 to UPA + ELSU also improved. No VTE or MACE. Is add-on ELSU really needed? @RheumNow https://t.co/x8NbAtsHh0

Worth mentioning: the type of monoclonal protein is important for diagnosis. Different diseases with different therapies #EULAR2025 @RheumNow l https://t.co/5bbQnHV6CI

The great debate: are cannabis and cannabinoids a valid treatment option in patients with rheumatic diseases?
A thread 🧵👇🏼

Interesting debate today #EULAR2025 about medical cannabis - where relative harms have come up.
Would you rather be addicted to prescription opioids or recreational cannabis?
(not going to argue about cannabis addiction - let’s say social impact is equal)

But low response with stat significance
ACR20 1/4 sham vs 1/3 VNS
Would add on to new SoC? 🤔

So we used to get taught about bimodal age distribution of RA onset - young people and old people.
Actually, it’s early middle age where RA diagnoses have now grown globally over 30y - right in peak productivity

Prédiction of PsA from PsO. Stockholm cohort, n=672):
•PsA incidence 21.1/1000 PY.
•AUC 0.80 for both referral and prognostic models.
•Predictors: HLA-B27, uveitis, enthesial pain, TJC, hsCRP, BMI, SAA, GlycA.
•Early identification feasible.

Do the sites of clinical onset of PsA (i.e., swelling) correspond to those that, at the time of enrollment in the study, showed evidence of joint tenderness and/or ultrasound-detected alterations compatible with inflammation? Of 28 incident PsA cases, 68% had prior subclinical https://t.co/rAZJU6Va5x

Even after having things laid out in a great debate, rheumatologists remain unconvinced by medical cannabis #EULAR2025 @RheumNow https://t.co/xMTvngS5N1

Study on the HLAs associated with the occurrence and course of acute/tender dactylitis in PsA patients.
Acute dactylitis genetics:
•HLA-B27 (OR 1.71), HLA-C12 (OR 1.43), B38/C12 & B27/C02 haplotypes.
•Resolution faster on b/tsDMARDs (HR 1.67); unaffected by HLA.
