Cool study investigating differences in nailfold capillaroscopy, jives w/my clinical experience
Compared to SLE, pts with DM 🔼nailfold changes, 🔼 loop dilation, 🔼hemorrhages

Dr. @karen_kc123 discusses the results of the VITAL study.
- Long term use of Vit D3 2000IU was safe and decreased the incidence of all autoimmune dses by 22%.
- It took a while to work but the effect dissipates once discontinued.

Will be covering some TAK pearls and pitfalls from today’s session!
Renal dz stratified by location of vessel inflammation:
- TAK = proximal (off aorta)
- FMD = mid-section, beading
- PAN = distal arterial branches

A call for ANA stewardship?
Abstract 1931: Educating clinicians on wise ANA ordering via EMR Alert plus removing the comprehensive ANA panel -->
- ↓ ANA testing (outpatient 15.9%→7.4%, inpatient 25.5%→6.4%)
↓ costs ($440k→$130k)

Study of 25K+ patients using TrinetX on immune checkpoint inhibitors shows no significant mortality difference between those with pre-existing autoimmune disease (AID) and those without.
Mortality rates:
AID: 39.8%
Non-AID: 40.2%
Large-scale evidence supports ICIs in AID… https://t.co/BI5jK9jsoM

CRISPR deletion of fibroblasts, gave cytokine activation to mimic inflamm
Are there gene depletions that affect inflamm pathways?
👉SIX1 reduces inflamm potentiation
👉NFIL3 deletion promotes inflamm, degradation

Pre-existing AID for immunoRx?
Excluded from trials
4 prior studies showed no diff in mortality w AID
Propensity-matched cohort study
Followed median 250 days
Hazard ratio: 1.07 (unmatched), 0.97 (matched) - no diff. Mortality about 40% in grps

Imaging in TAK Diagnosis
@KQuinnRheum @RheumNow
⭐ Take homes ⭐
👉location of renal artery stenosis (RAS) key to making Dx with proximal RAS in TAK
👉FDG PET -focal uptake in TAK vs diffuse in GCA
👉MRI good surrogate for disease activity where PET unavailable

Mental health, sex, and comorbidities are key factors in determining recalcitrant psoriatic arthritis (PsA).
Key findings:
- 21.7% of patients required ≥4 biologic/targeted synthetic DMARDs.
- Female patients and those with depression were more likely to be recalcitrant.
- No… https://t.co/I9YYoRnLwh https://t.co/VtnPceVLOZ
