I'd like to discuss the similarities between polymyalgia rheumatica and palindromic rheumatism. And in doing that, highlight how these similarities help us understand the relationship between polymyalgia rheumatica and rheumatoid arthritis. Perhaps not everybody watching this will be very familiar with palindromic rheumatism. It is considered uncommon, but every rheumatologist sees it in their practice.

EULAR has published updated recommendations for the management of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) based on new evidence and expert opinion - formulationg five overarching principles and 13 recommendations.

Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is a common inflammatory rheumatic disease. The exact trigger for PMR onset remains unknown. However, immunology studies and clinical trials with biological DMARDs now shed light on the immune pathways involved in PMR.
