After TNFi secondary failure: does MOA switch beat TNFi cycling? UK RWD (n=155): yes for #PsA (76% vs 57% drug survival at 12m) and axSpA (80% vs 68%), but not RA. Yet 74% of axSpA pts still got another TNFi. Evidence vs practice gap in plain sight. @RheumNow #EULAR2026 POS0776

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.

6.🍟 High UPF intake → increased RA risk (HR 1.06/SD), partly mediated by CRP. Not all NOVA-4 foods are equal
7.💊 Vit D supplementation significantly reduces SLE disease activity — MA of 10 RCTs, SMD −0.54 (p<0.00001).
