Scary IPAF IPAF describes patients who have ILD plus clinical, serologic, or morphologic features of autoimmunity but who do not meet criteria for a defined connective tissue disease. The 2015 ERS/ATS criteria proposed IPAF as a research classification, not a distinct disease, https://t.co/v3ir4IHia7

Might stem cells actually work in knee OA?? Possibly, only the right combo 🇰🇷 OSCA: OS (allo mesenchymal stem cells) + CAM (cartilage acellular matrix) anti-inflamm, structural, pain ph2a impressive signal over placebo & maybe tissue repair, benefit out to 5y? #ACR26 @RheumNow https://t.co/PU3MUqxH7Q

It's like HCQ on steroids (metaphorical not literal, & anabolic not glucocorticoid) TLR7/8 targeting in SLE (IFN-I, GC resistance, organ damage) ph2: massive signal in primary, secondaries all hit, IFN-I down from w2, safety good what a time for lupus ABSTLB23 #ACR26 @RheumNow https://t.co/mhntxC4aT4

Is 60-40-20 broken? RA trial rule of thumb: roughly 60%-40%-20% for ACR20-50-70 girocitinib (JAK1/Tyk2) vs tofacitinib ACR20: 91% vs 75% ACR50: 73% vs 49% ACR70: 44% vs 25% there will be debate (all in China, tofa exposure) but what a meeting for H2H ABSTLB21 #ACR26 @RheumNow https://t.co/SmOCzqqxFg

Final #ACR2026 post (maybe? 😄)! Huge shoutout to @RheumNow and the incredible team for their phenomenal work in rheumatology education! Can’t believe it took me this long to collaborate with them, but I have a feeling this is the beginning of a long-term relationship! 🙌

@RheumNow The narrative medicine interactive session at #ACR2026 was well attended and had a lot of interesting exchange of thoughts and ideas. Holistic care of patients, attention to caregiver burnout and ensuring provider well being is the need of the hour in rheumatology.

@RheumNow #1! 🌍 Global pediatric rheumatology workforce challenges! A survey across 32 countries found 40% lacked in-country training programs. Variable accreditation, limited funding & poor specialty awareness remain key barriers. Abstract 1483. #ACR2026
