MAS can be triggered by infections in VEXAS syndrome. The threshold is reached leading to a hyperinflammatory state

#infections in #JAKi
@drdavidliew
#JAKi sl ⬆️ infection risk vs #TNFi
⬆️HZ w JAKi
JAKi same risk w #latent #TB #LTBI and new TB ⬇️in JAKi v bDMARDs
He didn’t discuss TYK2i
Reassuring - risk⬇️ over time for infection

JAKi: expanding RMD indications—but important safety concerns to consider
⚠️ Cancer: Neutral vs MTX/placebo, ↑ risk vs TNF
⚠️ Infection: ↑ with age, disease activity & GC use—not uniformly higher with JAKi
🗣️ Patients rank infection risk as top concern

Stabilize the pts with HLH with steroids when still trying to figure out the diagnosis of #HLH/ #MAS
Many drugs can be used...but important to balance infection risk with immunosuppression
These are critical pts. Be vigilant..

3 Fs of diagnosis of #HLH
-Fever
-Ferritin
-Falling blood count
Raising awareness is the key! Especially in rare diseases like this where the morbidity and mortality is super high!
Collaboration between specialists help
HLH networks will be helpful like this

In #axSpA post #TNFi-IR
What to use next?
👇
#ATTRA registry
90% #SpA on #bDMARDs are captured
Comparison of
TNFi to ▶️
2nd TNFi vs
#IL17i
▶️No diff in #retention
✅better #BASDAI and other outcomes w TNFi!
❎less safety
🤔

#Cancer is not ⬆️in JAKi vs #bDMARDs in
#rheumatoid #arthritis
When adjusted for #confounders
#JAKPOT data
Now you see it (unadjusted ⬆️risk)
Now you don’t (adjusted =#malignancy)

Rheumatology #AI to optimize rheumatology triage. Only 53 percent correlation between the AIs diagnosis with rheumatologists final diagnosis. Not sure if we want 47 percent pts to drop off...without a chance for diagnosis?

Are we all going to be replaced by robots?
Not just yet
ARTHUR trial: the robotic ultrasonographer
vs. human
While the concept is promising, and ICC with humans were low to moderate, the robot is overestimating grey scale scores in MCPs of both HC and RA pts

Multimodal data using clinical histological and serological predictors in renal function in #sle nephritis. Using the AMP SLE data.
Low baseline eGFR and histological damage predicted worsening renal function but not NIH activity index

#D2T #RA ~20%
#Polyrefractory 3%
Many reasons for d/c ing #Rx - D2T
AEs
Intolerance
Chronic pain
Etc
My approach is different depending on reasons why drugs were d/c
Ie ?obj inflammation vs pain or intolerance
