Sublingual Cyclobenzaprine for fibromyalgia. It seems to improve pain, and across the board on secondary endpoints. But all by a modest effect. Big placebo response also. Not time to get overly excited yet. Abstr#0477 #ACR21 @RheumNow https://t.co/aUtwaH5oEh

Wanted to highlight our work @HSpecialSurgery presented at #ACR21 using unsupervised clustering of multimodal data - histology and ultrasound to identify phenotypes such as moderately inflammatory subtype in #osteoarthritis @RheumNow #abst0212
some features highlighted in fig https://t.co/HRzhMXctB9

My 56 yo ♀RA pt expressed concern for developing dementia last wk. This study helps recognize her RF beyond aging:
➡️ Large joint swelling (HR 2.2)
➡️ CVD (HR 2.4): stroke (HR 3.2) + chronic HF (HR 1.8)
➡️ DM (HR 1.6)

#ACR21 Plenary Abs#0457 @alhkim #COVaRiPAD study:
👉Patients with inflammatory diseases on #immunosuppression have impaired #SARSCoV2 immunity post-vaccine
👉#Steroids, MMF & B cell depletion therapy more severely affect responses

Abst0254 #ACR21 @RheumNow CARRA SJIA cohort defines factors associated with medication free remission for ≥6 month-period: younger age, normal CRP levels & shorter time btw diagnosis and start of Rx. none of pts who developed MAS (3.9%) able to d/c Rx for ≥6 months

COVID-19 mRNA vaccination immunogenicity
(vs immunocompetent):
TNFi: 2.3x reduction
JAKi: 2.6x
AZA: 3.5x
MTX: 4.4x
steroids: 9x (but confounded by other meds)
MMF/MPA: 21x
B cell depleting: 57.7x (but 6m gap probably helps)
amazing work led by @alhkim

Provocative study in pre-RA. SC Abatacept in patients with pre-clinical RA can:
-improvement MRI inflammation
-⬇️evolution to clinical RA at 6 months
-No new safety signal
Yes, but we need longer term follow-up and an estimation of NNT.

New treatments in #psoriaticarthritis Brepocitinib TYK 2/JAK 1 inhibitor had superior efficacy vs PBO in active PsA at Week 16, with improvements in more refractory domains over 52 weeks. Safety consistent with other JAKi @RheumNow #ACR21 Abstr#0488 https://t.co/ugsV7uRwro

#ACR21 #Abstr0456 How can we explain cognitive impairment in #lupus? Using f- and DCE-MRI, a study showed:
💠Abnormalities in brain functional connectivity
💠Extensive Blood-Brain Barrier leakage (BBB)
BBB could be a future target @RheumNow https://t.co/KLeWfbQUQ0 https://t.co/ibNvBUWlMK

Polyautoimmunity: axSpA and Familial Mediterranean Fever by Dr. Rachel Tate ( @uptoTate )
Mysteries behind polyautoimmunity have confounded rheumatologists for decades. One such association, the co-existence of FMF and axSpA, remains rare.
