Evidence earlier in #ACR20 showed pts can give good reported jt scores. But PT globals, and evaluator globals, do not predict radiographic progression. MBDA does predict progression @LCalabreseDO @MeralElRamahiMD @RheumNow Abst#1730 https://t.co/YPWOqTRqV6

@psufka @wendycostello2 @RheumNow I love seeing patients in person! However, being pregnant during COVID19 made me adjust my practice significantly (as we all did.) Watch https://t.co/99R5rPryui it helped me to visualize the PE in an entirely new way. @RheumNow
