โฐ The question rheumatologists keep asking: Does early axSpA diagnosis reduce long-term spinal damage?
Answer from the SCQM registry (n=376): Early diagnosis linked to 3.85 fewer mSASSS points long-term, esp. in HLA-B27+ males

CyTOF reveals significant sexual dimorphism in monocyte populations in active #axSpA
Women show reduced classical and non-classical monocytes vs healthy controls. Men do not show the same pattern.
Sex is not just a demographic variable in AxSpA it is also an immunological one.
