ICYMI: We have an ACR guideline for diet!
Luckily, you're likely already recommending the Mediterranean diet (conditionally recommended.) https://t.co/7W1ZIpqo47

ASCVD Risk Calculators underestimate risk in patients of RA
Inflammatory disease was added as a "risk enhancer" in 2019 update
"A low ASCVD and/or absence of symptoms may be not be reassuring" https://t.co/XjTuzvvO4v

Why is improved plaque identification important?
1. Most stress tests are normal!
2. Most events occur in pts with normal function studies
3. Plaque burden predicts risk, better than stenosis

ICYMI: new guidelines published in 2019 for CV prevention. It's important to assess CV risk in our patients because inflammatory diseases is now included as a risk factor (helps when deciding on starting pts on JAKi)- Dr. B Weber #RNL2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/nBQjs49avu https://t.co/apyDjaxudi

Dr. B. Weber's review of the 2019 ASCVD risk factors which now includes inflammatory diseases (RA, HIV, PsO).
She believes this will help us to better understand and grow our knowledge around patient risk. @RheumNow #RNL2024 https://t.co/9bV7VfExNf

Nuclear imaging assesses cardiac function, anatomy & microvascular dysfunction (MD). MD is underrecognized but can be measured by coronary flow reserve. MD is associated with worse longterm outcomes in systemic inflammatory disease – Dr. Weber #RNL2024 @rheumnow https://t.co/Bv22UKi6mM

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction is associated with poor prognosis/outcomes in our systemic inflammatory disease patients.
What is the gold standard for evaluating microvascular dysfunction?
Coronary Flow Reserve (CRF)
This is only one component to fully understand and assess… https://t.co/bMV5npkFwm https://t.co/ZYBXpQLPIF

Link between inflammation and cardiovascular disease, increased 1.5x in RA and 2-3 in PsA, treating inflammation is important to reduce CV risk, Brittany Weber #RNL2024 @RheumNow https://t.co/FCrOxa3drZ

Dr. B Weber gave a wonderful review of inflammation and cardiac risk in SLE, PsO/PsA, and RA.
*SLE pts has a 50-fold increased risk of MI
*RA pts are a 1.5x risk of CVD
*PsO and PsA pts are also at increased risk for CVD
