#ACR25 Abstr#0773 Anti-MDA5 ab is assoc. with progressive DM-ILD. But MDA5 expression is also upregulated in IPF. Any new biomarker which can link these ILD?
Measuring reactivity to MDA5 (aa 201-300) epitope peptide may help identify poor ILD prognostics (with/out DM) @RheumNow https://t.co/rziwihKfIr

Increased risk of psoriatic arthritis with obesity. A preview to Abstract#2687 Scher J @RheumNow #ACR25 https://t.co/cMbrQnq8YG
ACR 2025 began today in Chicago with throngs of rheumatologists, fellows, ARP members, APPs and pharma folk taking to the meeting halls and rooms for tons of novel content.
A transformation is now underway in rheumatology, where cellular and immune therapies are redefining how we treat autoimmune diseases.
The RheumNow Faculty have run through day one at ACR25 and come with a few of their favorites - some what you expected but some of these are gems.

Dr. Ogdie on emerging PsA tx:
“It’s not just about the pharmacotherapy but also about making the patient feel better”
Also, weight loss is incredibly important but also incredibly hard. Losing weight is more impt than the type of diet a patient should be on.

Why do we need to identify early PsA?
🔅Improve symptoms
🔅Prevent radiographic progression
🔅Preserve function
☝️Recent data show that erosions are prevalent in early PsA but lower if symptom duration is <6 mos.
