PMR/GCA patients: should you be worried about how well your COVID vaccine worked?
Actually, post-two vaccines, pretty good Ab (&cellular) response, esp if not on MTX/PNL>10
Glad to see our PMR/GCA pts protected

Boers et al. GLORIA trial of long term 5mg pred in RA. Titled as "favourable balance of benefit and harm". I cannot agree. 24% increase adverse events, NNH 9, for DAS28 0.37 better at 1 year, and really no difference after that. @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0263 https://t.co/eO4f1CjH5q https://t.co/VyyZm1QvYy

Meudec et al. Comparative effects of JAKi on NK cell function on cancer cells (lymphoma and lung cancer). Tofacitinib had most negative impact. Interesting given blanket black box based on tofa data! @RheumNow #EULAR2022 OP0265 https://t.co/XSE7hP60Ui https://t.co/MjtAJcvWAD

Deep learning can be used to distinguish seropositive RA from seronegative RA and PsA based on MRI.
Early changes in PsO may suggest a PsA-like MRI pattern may be present!
Is this how we predict which PsO -> PsA?

#EULAR2022 POS0278:
Proof of concept US study:
💎CPP crystals do NOT generate posterior shadowing
💎MSU and hydroxyapatite did have shadowing, proportional to concentration of crystals

There's nothing like a good physical examination
Temporal artery exam & ultrasound vs temporal artery biopsy
n=97 consecutive ?GCA pts from Carlo Salvarini's group
Very decent PPV
Those TA exam findings can be hard to find, but they're gold dust.

Beware of paradoxical low lipids in RA!
⭐️ETN+MTX vs MTX T2T:
Early ETN: increased in HLD, lesser LDL, differs from MTX. Correlates with clinical disease activity

SpA pregnancies in #EULAR2022 POS1051 found that 40% of pts flared, particularly during their 2nd trimester in those with axial involvement OR post-partum. Seven flares led to TNFi initiation in 2nd or 3rd trimesters and were without correlation in post-partum flares. @RheumNow https://t.co/0ZWjYMwmzn
