β° The question rheumatologists keep asking: Does early axSpA diagnosis reduce long-term spinal damage?
Answer from the SCQM registry (n=376): Early diagnosis linked to 3.85 fewer mSASSS points long-term, esp. in HLA-B27+ males

Window of opportunity in stills disease is early. With IL1 / IL6 agents
#sJIA and #AOSD are the same disease. - may need a standard new crieteria
IL18 measuremnet should be encouraged.

Transitioning from pediatrics to adult rheumatology for patients with autoinflammatory disease such as #AOSD should be done with administrative support and the right hand off.

π¬ Can filgotinib improve axSpA?
OLINGUITO (Phase 3 RCT, n=495):
YES! ASAS40 39.5% vs 21% (r-axSpA) at week 16

Glucocorticoids are the cornerstone of initial vasculitis treatment, used to rapidly control inflammation and protect vital organs. EULAR has recommendations that cover glucocorticoid use in ANCA associated vasculitides (AAV) and large vessel vasculitis, including giant cell arteritis (GCA).1,2 But the evidence base continues to grow about their use β especially over the long term.

What defines MRI indicative of axSpA?
This systematic lit review show adapting more stringent cutoffs in BME (>=4 SIJ quads, erosion >=3 quads, fat >=5 SIJ quads) & combined BME + structural lesions inc specificity.
Time for updated definitions?
