Does specific ANCA subtype inform infectious risk?
Retrospective review of 270 AAV patients revealed that about 1/3 pt developed severe infections... of these:
- 64.1% MPO+
- 35.9% PR3+
Most infx during year 1 of tx
No difference between CYC vs. RTX

Gender differences in p/axSpA in Turkiye from ASAS-PerSpA:
Males - early onset IBP (<45yrs); sacroiliitis on CR, HLA-B27+ (vs. females)
Females - peripheral dse, enthesitis, Pso, dactylitis; ⬆️dse activity, FM (vs. males)
Individualize & optimize tx.

Simulation modeling by Patel et al helps generate probability of remission, relapse, and adverse events in newly dx AAV
Projected risk by model were similar to observed rates in RCTs

Rotation or Change in Biologic post TNFi failure in axSpA. Switching biologic class after TNFi failure improved outcomes in axial SpA. In a randomized trial of axSpA patients with inadequate response to a first TNFi, switching to an IL-17Ai was not superior to cycling to a second https://t.co/MEsokWeT8e

This cohort study from Ontario of 🚺w/axSpA
✳️GDM, antepartum hem, SMM (severe maternal morbidity) -⬆️ in axSpA
✳️Neonat complications-preterm birth
Factors assoc w/SMM- age, comorbidity, gestational age at delivery
Better strategies for maternal care

HCQ weight-based dosing: out
HCQ whole blood monitoring: in
Whole blood levels more precisely balance risks of SLE flare (under-dosing) vs. toxicitiy (over-dosing)
Many pt on <5 mg/kg had supra-therapeutic blood levels with risk for toxicity

Mimics of ANCA-associated vasculitis: How can we tell?
With increased disease awareness and more regular, accessible testing for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) has become an increasingly recognized clinical entity in rheumatologic https://t.co/LYRk0rHlzx

360k+ postmenopausal women w osteoporosis: >1/3 untreated patients were at v high fracture risk, yet few received recommended anabolic or antiresorptive therapy.
Even among treated women at very high risk, >50% were still on oral bisphosphonates

“I never thought I’d live to old age with MCTD, now I plan for it.”
This patient’s journey highlights the power of evolving therapies, resilience, and lifestyle adaptation to age well with chronic autoimmune disease.

Excited (and a little nervous!) to be presenting on a topic I’m very passionate about- social determinants of health & shared decision making, alongside some fantastic speakers & chairs.
Join us in room W184D, 10:00-11:30
Looking forward to a lively discussion!
