Romosozumab has dual effect: bone-forming AND preventing resorption. Hitting hard with this early in #osteoporosis reduces fracture risk later when on denosumab, compared to those receiving placebo prior. Similar results when patients switch to alendronate. @RheumNow #EULAR2019 https://t.co/ZSQAxSUnv9

With OA therapeutics, there’s disease, and then there’s illness. Any disease modifying effect that might be there can get drowned out by fibromyalgia... Data on lorecivivint in Marc Hochberg’s anabolic DMOAD overview SP0013 #EULAR2019 @RheumNow https://t.co/GALk9hs8KB

Filippou shows us US vs synovial exam of crystal: US more sensitive but less specific than synovial aspirate. Beware the double contour sign in CPPD mimicking gout but calcification moves discordant with the bone. #eular2019 @RheumNow https://t.co/W8pftdfa0I

OA is multifactorial. So why do we expect a silver bullet therapeutic solution?

Acetaminophen had more diarrhea and transaminitis than placebo in RCTS. In nonrandomized studies there were 1.4 times more UGI bleeds but likely channeling bias. Ok for CV events in RCTs; mixed results in uncontrolled studies for CV and renal. @RheumNow #EULAR2019 0P0019-HPR https://t.co/Y8f87jnxbR

Good news for scleroderma lung disease. Abstract OP0017 shows less decline in SSc ILD with nintedanib v placebo. Half on MMF in both groups. Less decline if on MMF but still 40% reduction in active v placebo in both subsets and combination seemed safe. @RheumNow #EULAR2019 https://t.co/1CJ4sggZsj

Plenary session of JIA post TNFI failure OP0016 from 2 UK registries by Kearsley-Fleet shows no difference in 151 kids who go to 2nd TNFi vs switch to different biologic for response and retention. Either is ok. @RheumNow #EULAR2019
EULAR 2019 begins today in Madrid and features over 2000 presentations. After an initial review of titles and abstracts, I’ve compiled a hit list of presentations of interest to me and hopefully other practicing rheumatologists.
This is probably the most difficult question that a physician is confronted with. A patient is stricken with a new disease or problem and before it even sinks in or is fully comprehended, the patient wants to know “why” or “how” long before they want to know what are we can do about it.
