♂♀ Does sex matter in #axSpA long-term?
GESPIC (n=525,10y):
Yes! ♂ less symptoms but 2x more spinal progression

Interesting pilot study using line-field confocal OCT for CLE
The “virtual biopsy” identified distinct layer-specific patterns across diff CLE subtypes including distinctions

Psoriatic arthritis #PsA sessions raised important topics on intercepting arthritis in psoriasis, treating obesity as a disease target, synovial biopsy to guide treatment, molecular imaging to reveal subclinical disease. More tomorrow. #Rheumatology @RheumNow #EULAR2026
Dietary interventions are rarely taken as seriously as pharmacological therapies in rheumatology. Yet patients ask about them constantly, and an increasing number of studies suggest that nutrition may influence disease outcomes. Two randomized controlled trials presented at EULAR 2026 add to this growing literature in PsA and RA. However, before we start prescribing Mediterranean diets, the data deserve a closer look.

Biopsy-guided treatment in PsA: match the drug to the tissue pathotype with 68% in LDA/remission vs 48% standard of care at 6 months. In myeloid CD117+ patients, mean DAPSA reduction at 6 months: IL-17i: −13.5, IL-23i: −12.8, TNFi: −7.5. Synovial biopsy with myeloid CD117+

It's unclear whether GLP-1agonists inmpvove PsA from weight loss or other MoA
74 PsA patients on GLP-1RA vs 74 matched controls (BMI + disease activity matched)
After adjusting for BMI change PROs still improve cDAPSA (-0.4/mo) DAPSA (-0.6/mo) and pain but not SJC, TJC or CRP https://t.co/dcaU2jwbKJ

Guselkumab gets FDA Nod for X-ray Protection
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Johnson & Johnson's supplemental Biologics License (sBLA) to include evidence in the guselkumab (Tremfya) label for the inhibition of progression of structural joint damage in https://t.co/tlH7WM5gil
Few topics in rheumatology have reshaped prescribing behaviour as dramatically as the safety concerns surrounding JAK inhibitors following ORAL Surveillance and the subsequent FDA and EMA warnings.

#OP0114 at #EULAR2026: Spanish study finds marked regional disparities in premature mortality from systemic connective tissue diseases. Higher socioeconomic deprivation and longer waits for specialist care were both linked to worse outcomes. @RheumNow https://t.co/04we2H0wdb

ULT de-escalation in Gout: shall we do it?
Short answer: No
RCT 309 pts 24 mo
Primary outcome remission last 6 mo
79.2% ULT continuation vs 62.9% discontinuation p=0.002
Flare incidence 12% vs 32%
More NSAID/colchicine use after stopping ULT
Stopping ULT = urate rises quickly & https://t.co/bYKr5axu46

#OP091 at #EULAR2026: RA was associated with a 44% higher risk of ischaemic stroke versus the general population, with higher stroke-related mortality and disability. Encouragingly, excess stroke risk was no longer significant in more recent RA cohorts. @RheumNow
