#OP0207 #EULAR2026: SUPERFIBRES trial suggests dietary fibre supplementation may enhance MTX response in RA. Inulin improved EULAR responses and Th17/Treg balance over 30 days, with strongest effects seen in MTX-treated patients. Fascinating microbiome-linked signal. @RheumNow https://t.co/nCvZlooamF

Data of #Rituximab
In #SARD-ILD
Small N of #RA-#ILD pts
I think data are sufficient as #RWE of #RTX in RA-ILD
✅benefits in other #CTD ILD
✅benefits in #rheumatoid #arthritis
#EVER-ILD #RCT

#OP0204 #EULAR2026 Shared decision-making in practice! BACH study tested “treat by choice” in RA. Patients preferred oral JAKi over SC TNFi (55% vs 45%)
Importantly, own choice led to higher treatment satisfaction, better drug survival & fewer adverse events. @RheumNow #EULARBest https://t.co/iI1n2OGzqY

Prospective study of RVZ immunogenicity = heterogeneous cellular immunity across RMDs
12mo 150 pts
-CD4+ gE-T-cell response peaks mo 3
-Response seen in axSpA + GCA, but not RA
-25% of patients no CMI increase after vaccination
Consistent w/other vaccine cellular imm profiles https://t.co/yvDLSHh4Bj

#OP0203 #EULAR2026: low-dose blinatumomab in multidrug-resistant RA introduced the intriguing concept of “immune dimming”, transient B-cell depletion that appeared to restore responsiveness to previously failed DMARDs, JAK inhibitors and TNFi in several patients. @RheumNow

Frailty as a long term outcome in RA
Higher frailty in RA vs ctrls HR 1.76 in 910 matched pairs.
-10y: 30.6% vs 19.1%
-20y: 53.8% vs 35.3%
-Stronger in recent RA (HR 2.38)
Driven by age, smoking, comorbidity, steroids/biologics not RF/CCP.
Preventive interventions needed https://t.co/pcJrE73G5O

Catching up on #EULAR2026 “Advanced management in RA” session: #OP0202 reported positive phase 2b RENOIR data for rosnilimab, a selective pathogenic T-cell depleter, with significant improvements in DAS28-CRP, ACR responses and CDAI LDA vs placebo in RA. @RheumNow https://t.co/IKKtakxpya

Machine learning identifies a “vulnerable” phenotype in older RA patients n=275
-51% “vulnerable”
-Worse grip strength, gait speed & SARC-F
-Higher disability (HAQ 1.56 vs 0.64)
-More fatigue, poorer QoL
-Higher DAS28 despite greater biologic exposure
Suggests we should assess https://t.co/bv1FbTxGKR

Depression at RA diagnosis did not predict short-term CV events in a nationwide early RA cohort
-17,669 early RA pts
-7.3% BL depression
-Median follow-up 1.2 years
-No association w/ CV hospitalisation after adjustment (sHR 1.05)
Reassuring short-term data, longer follow-up https://t.co/XmMVGY1VlI

One of the highlights of #EULAR2026 for me:
♀️The "This Is a Woman's World" session
I recapped 8 must-know abstracts (including our work from ARCH_ArLAR) in a new @RheumNow video🎬

Failure to achieve early remission RA asso w/ non-inflammatory pain
NORD-STAR 526 early RA pts)
no remission at 24 wks increased risk of 48wk
• unacceptable pain (OR ~6)
• refractory pain (OR ~6)
• fibromyalgic RA (OR ~16)
Signal strongest w/ very early remission wk8 https://t.co/H8iyhIrsJw

Even with tight T2T, ARCTIC 10yr follow-up (n=170) show 9% had RA-ILD on HRCT, plus another 19% with non-specific interstitial findings. Male sex and older age were risk factors. Seropositivity was not. Vigilance remains essential. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS1270
