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

#ACR23 Abstr#1636 Phase 2 crossover RCT of Dazodalibep, Anti-CD40L-i in #Sjogren pts with high disease activity showed primary endpoint, change in ESSDAI was met in DAZ vs PBO. More COVID in DAZ in Stage 1 but trial was at the start of pandemic. Phase 3 is starting soon @RheumNow https://t.co/hZcpOHumB3

Fisher et al. In high disease activity, fatigue associates anxiety and synovial lining hyperplasia, 1.57[1.01,2.5]; p=0.047) In LDA, fatigue associates chronic lymphocytic synovial inflammation, 1.92[1.09,3.57]; p=0.024) Abstr#1630 #ACR23 @RheumNow https://t.co/Gev6pU3srq https://t.co/Ys8etP36ir

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?

Peyton et al.: 4 multimorbidity patterns in RA
-Mental health and subst abuse
-Metabolic
-CV
-Chronic pain
All associated with different sets of biomarkers.
Some are very specific of one profile while others are widespread across profiles.

Ultrasound (and specifically intima-media thickness) might not just be for diagnosis in GCA - it might be a GCA disease activity measure for monitoring:
- improves over time
- increases with flares

In PS-matched study, no significant difference in respiratory hospitalisation or death between RA-ILD patients on non-TNFi/JAKi vs. TNFi. This finding does not support systematic avoidance of TNFi in RA-ILD, England B Abst#1582 #ACR23 #ACRBest @RheumNow https://t.co/1zVjMWNZZS https://t.co/d8TRIvGaIe
