Do you use RAPID3 in PsA?
Abst#0633 at #ACR21 shows a strong agreement between RAPID3 remission score w/ DAPSA + cDAPSA, esp when redefining RAPID3 categories.
Is this practice △ing? With more studies to validate, yes, since RAPID3 is simpler!

Is it Allopurinol or adherence concern?
Oxypurinol can be helpful in measuring adherence!
Kolfenbach: "I despise the term non-compliant patient." Address the many reasons why adherence may be low! Health literacy is key.
