Upadacitinib in GCA. Merkel et al. SELECT-GCA study. Sustained remission week 52 Upa (+26 week steroid) 46% vs PBO (+52 week steroid) 29%. Reduced flare rates with UPA (see picture). Similar to GiACTA results. @RheumNow #ACR24 Abstr#0770 https://t.co/fr75XK21L1 https://t.co/Hhax7po7vV
Managing health conditions is rapidly evolving as patients increasingly turn to online resources for answers—over 65% search for health-related questions online. Our study analyzed Google search trends for rheumatic disease topics, offering a fascinating glimpse into how online search behavior can reveal patient needs and experiences. This approach, known as "infodemiology," tracks real-time Google Trends data to understand symptom- and

What agent to pick after a TNFi has failed: another TNFi or a non-TNFi?
Would a TNFi drug conc help (i.e. if low, increased clearance due to secondary failure)?
In this RCT @maartenskliniek, this TDM approach was no better than random selection. Argh

Seronegative RA: sometimes there's an assumption that they'll eventually get a 'real' diagnosis
at @MayoClinic, 85% of patients diagnosed with seronegative RA kept their diagnosis at 10 years.
Usually, seroneg RA means seroneg RA!

Real-world data from @k_lauper's Jak-pot study (>9000 RA pt) on how quickly b/tsDMARDs work:
JAKi, TNFi quicker than tocilizumab, abatacept
Even though they all get to a similar place eventually, some get there quicker
(but worth any safety tradeoffs?)

Spatial Proteomics study for TEN
Marked enrichment of type I and II interferon and STAT1 activation
Pathways suggests benefit for JAKi in this condition
Clinical response in case photos, suggests benefit of pursuing clinical trial

Like we've seen in many parts of the world, RA prescribing in Germany is moving away from JAKi, in response to regulatory safety warnings.
Whether all of this is appropriate or not, we'll have to see...

CV risk factors in rheumatic dz patients start in childhood. Patients with PMH of Kawasaki disease are at risk for rca/lmca aneurysms, thrombosis and stroke. Important to consider this with our history taking when pediatric patients transition to adult care! @RheumNow #ACR24 https://t.co/CIp8PjW4vD
