@erasmusmcintl @RheumNow Data here from @earlyarthritis (CATCH Canada cohort), similar results.
It's not just pain differences - but that's real too. It's lots of things, but whatever the case we ignore sex and gender's impact in RA at our peril.

Potential disconnect: Objective Inflammatory Response, OIR (MRI/CRP levels) vs Clinical Response,CR (BASDAI/ASDAS). Post hoc analysis AxSpA on Certolizumab. Majority of patients >50% improved OIR, only minority improved CR. Rudwaleit etal https://t.co/WdkmkCWClO #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/qlNUFhnuJQ
Is patient-administered cervical cancer screening an option for women with SLE? Should I prescribe estrogen containing contraceptives to SLE women with APL antibodies? What complications should I be aware of in pregnant women with SLE? Here are three abstracts that provide insight.

I've always presumed biopsy-neg GCA just hit skip lesions sections
What does RNA-Seq of temporal artery bx tell us?
positive bx similar to skip lesions
bx neg GCA very different
Sometimes it's not just the sampling
sometimes it's something different...

What do you look for on temporal artery examination in GCA assessment?
tenderness: minimally useful
reduced/absent pulse or thickening: quite good if there, nearly as good as halo
Good examination is powerful, if you're doing it right!

Abs 0406 demonstrates stronger relationship between disease activity (using BASFI and BASDAI) and quality of life in men w/ axSpA than women. IMO, it also demonstrates need for better assessment tools for women! #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/B44ZixyeAJ https://t.co/lMzpsGcsFM
Rheumatoid arthritis is known to be associated with a higher risk of infections. In abstract 0535, Porter and colleagues have assessed infection rates in the pre-RA and early RA phases as defined by antibiotics prescription and hospital admissions with an infection main diagnostic code in the UK National database.

Abs0399 ASAS recs for requesting/reporting imaging in suspected AxSpA pts key takeaway: communication!
Rheum provides pertinent hx (trauma, childbirth, pain location, duration, etc), DDx
Rads summarize hx & give pertinent +/- exam findings
