CV events in women w/ ARDs pregnancies: -2.0% of 19,340 pregnant ARDs Adjusted relative risk: -4 fold in ARD -15 fold in primary APS -6 fold in SLE -SLE + APS 18 fold 25-30% occur in early post partum! Need for continued vigilance after delivery @RheumNow #ACR23 ABST0722 https://t.co/hLeN61WBnB

CVE’s higher in pregnant pts with SLE + APS, primary APS and Lupus nephritis especially in the postpartum period. Rheums need to be involved with their patients’ care during pregnancy! Abstr#0722 #ACr23 @rheumnow https://t.co/P6sbJtd6xW

Always great to see UCSD represent at #ACR23! Pregnant women with rheumatic diseases and antiphospholipid syndrome higher a HIGHER risk for acute cardiovascular events 30% of events occurred postpartum @RheumNow Abs#0722 https://t.co/CqZedfOlBC

#ACR23 Real-world multicentre study showed steroid-sparing effect of Belimumab in #SLE. At 2 years, proportion of patients on =>10mg/d decreased from 52% to 3%. 18% and 13% achieved LLDAS and DORIS remission. Support its use esp. in those relying on glucocorticoids @RheumNow https://t.co/ad5XH3pmYc

Systemic anti-inflammatory treatments for PsO and PsA including methotrexate and biologics provided cardioprotective effects Potential cardiovascular benefits of IL-17i and IL-12/23i compared to TNFi @RheumNow #ACR23 Abs#0498 https://t.co/Np7PSNvFd6

Plenary 1 #ACR23 CVE in ARD/APS is a significant risk factor during pregnancies and the risk stays even after delivery for a significant amount of time. California based administrative data study! abst#722 @RheumNow https://t.co/HawhS4Gqko

Treatment intensification was associated with a higher ASDAS cut-off (2.7) value than the recommended one (≥2.1), the recommended cut-off could be too stringent or consider other factors than disease activity, Webers, El-Din Abst#0517 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/ZtBXhufxU1 https://t.co/MzvZQoFbvw

Should all of active moms with #SLE receive DVT prophylaxis post partum? High rates of VTE in #ARDs post partum #0722 #ACRbest #ACR23 @RheumNow @ACRheum Likely data driven by #SLE and maybe #RA and not all #autoimmune #rheumatic #disease. Large pop’n data from California https://t.co/sGJa5N6HUj

Plenary talk by Dhital etc al, shows increased risk of acute CV events in pregnant rheumatic, SLE, APS pts, esp if nephritis or APL+. #ACR23 Abstract 0722 https://t.co/pG0PqzVtIU

Analysis from the DESIR cohort reveal that pregnancy does not aggravate imaging changes in axSpA. Stat significant changes seen on Xray of LSIJ b4 & after delivery (p=0.037) but not worsening. Do these findings also translate to⬇️pain/improved QOL? #ACR23 ABST0513 @RheumNow https://t.co/s6xD2CaPwn

Higher disease activity and systemic inflammation at baseline associated with greater risk of MACE in bDMARD nonusers but not in users. bDMARD-specific benefits directly on MACE risk beyond reducing inflammation, Karpouzas et al Abst#0391 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/lfoccZffTW https://t.co/ASpKYQof1I
