There was a lower hazard ratio for incident cancer with exposure to TNFi compared to non-TNFi (RTX and ABA) and JAKi. Limits: potential for residual confounding by indication and small number of outcomes per drug class, Xavier S, Abst#1678 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/vJpFwl6Ivj

Hand movement video: more promising than photos as a computer vision concept for remote monitoring of RA disease activity.
Of course: validation, training, clinical evaluation all must happen before it is ready for your clinic

Do we miss RA activity in obese pts?
Pre-clinical trial entry MSK USS:
similar DAS28
but lower SJC/US scores in obese
Is it because, in obese RA patients:
we underdetect on exam?
we undertreat?
higher risk, so lower penetrance of severe dx endotypes?
