Kuzkina et al. Efficacy of IL-6i with olokizumab on depression in RA. There appear to be some benefit but anti-depressants still needed. Group 1 is olokizumab alone, other 2 groups have anti-depressants also. @RheumNow #ACR25 Abstr#1323 https://t.co/h2ExYQgKTL

Post Hoc analysis from SELECT-GCA
Increased rate of herpes zoster for 26wk steroid-UPA 15mg (7.3% vs 4.2% 52wk steroid-plbo) but lower rate of SERIOUS infections (7.9% vs 12.7% 52wk steroid-plbo)
Zoster risk is real; steroids are the bigger problem

@RheumNow on virtual learning:
It’s integrated in clinical care, research and #MedEd
How to manage info overload?
- schedule, make use of tools
- use AI to curate, analyze & focus

Concerns using dupilumab in EGPA due to secondary eosinophilia
What about when combined with IL-5 therapy?
16 pt on dupi + IL5 agent
- if dupi alone caused eosinophilia -> quelled by IL-5
- no eosinophilia when dupi added to IL-5
- effective but slow

Case series of 5 patients with binutuzumab (CD20) in AAV
Short story short; it worked. Of course it worked. Obviously it worked. Everyone knew it would work.
Why aren't we doing more TRIALS with new/better B cell inhibitors in AAV?

Rural RA care looks different but not less intensive: DMARD and GC use matched urban rates, yet rural pts often managed by PCPs had twice the opioid use.
ACR's Rheum for Primary Care resource can help address access gap and improve RA care

Analysis from FVSG identified 36pts with anti-rituximab antibodies
In AAV, lookout for this in pts who are MPO+ & w/higher CD19 at 6 mos. Worse relapse free survival in both AAV & CRYO!
@TerrierBen can you share the prevalence of these abs?

#1263 More from our health literacy work!
@KingsCollegeNHS, 11 distinct health literacy profiles were identified from 263 rheum patients. Lower literacy linked to unemployment & non-White ethnicity, highlighting equity gaps in care & need for improved resources
