#ACR21 #Abstr1909 📢We need to stress the importance of hydroxychloroquine adherence to our patients. Adherence (>90% of the time) reduced premature CVD mortality by 52% in #rheumatoidarthritis and #lupus. The study didn’t adjust for smoking @RheumNow https://t.co/D9pGqwWhje https://t.co/R6r3cSexUB

Looking forward to the #ACR21 roundup by Drs. Cush and Kavanaugh at 7pm EST tonight. Always entertaining and informative. A highlight of ACR for me. We met in person the last time in Atlanta #ACR19. It’s virtual & the link is at @RheumNow Hope to meet in person again #ACR22 🤞 https://t.co/pgAcBExL7G

Can we predict who will develop #RA-ILD? Perhaps anti-MAA is the answer! #ACR21 Abs#1916 👉🏼⬆️anti-MAA antibody assoc with incident ILD risk 👉🏼Associations are antigen & isotype dependent 👉🏼Antibody measurement may be useful to risk stratify for RA-ILD @RheumNow https://t.co/nC0OkuWtGU

ORAL Surveillance: MACE and malignancy are getting all the attention... but did you know that non-zoster infections are also more likely with tofacitinib vs TNFis? #ACR21 ABST1684 @RheumNow https://t.co/GiBkvPYs4j

ACR/EULAR Classification Criteria for Large Vessel Vasculitis (TAK/GCA), updated from prior to include imaging Must emphasize typical disclaimers; these are for classification, not specifically for diagnosis Great effort and useful result, esp for trials #ACR21 @petercgrayson https://t.co/IYFyh5oYBT

⭐️Ustekinumab+MTX vs. UST+PBO in PsA? ➡️Additional MTX has no positive impact on UST efficacy for arthritis, enthesitis, dactylitis, skin, QoL, & function. *️⃣Thus, no evident to add or maintain ongoing MTX when starting UST Late-Breaking Poster#12. #ACR21 @RheumNow #ACRBest https://t.co/k96PPUtwct

#ACR21 2022 ACR/EULAR GCA Criteria ▶️Classification, NOT diagnostic! ⭐️Must be >50yo ⭐️Clinical, lab, imaging, and biopsy findings +TA biopsy or Halo sign = 5 points, 6+ points needed for classification @RheumNow https://t.co/6YWmabNzuH https://t.co/cZVrWA02U6

Once again #steroids are bad in #RheumatoidArthritis from 2 large admin databases in age >65 in Medicare data, not in younger pts -Optum data. Clear dose response #ACR21 #ACRBest @RheumNow abst#1915 https://t.co/XL93jty7C9

#ACR21 Abs#1915 👉🏼Chronic steroid use in older adults on stable DMARD therapy assoc w/ ⬆️CV risk 👉🏼Risk even present among older adults receiving low dose ≤5mg/day 👉🏼Larger studies needed in younger healthier adults @RheumNow https://t.co/Lsj5YBz7IG

Congratulations @KenSaag the 85th President of @ACRheum Under your guidance we will flourish as a team that “is there for our members so they can be there for their patients”. #ACR21 #RheumatologyIsAmazing

#ACR21 2022 ACR/EULAR TAK Criteria ▶️Classification, NOT diagnostic! ⭐️Must be <60 yo, needs vasculitis on imaging ⭐️Clinical criteria + imaging finding (more points for more arteries, 3 pt for abd aorta with renal or mesenteric involvement) @RheumNow https://t.co/6YWmabNzuH https://t.co/fJka2a9tqm
