Late-Onset Disease: Different Age, Different Rules?
We’re seeing more patients develop rheumatic diseases for the first time in their 60s, 70s, or beyond. But are these truly the same diseases we see in younger adults, or do they behave differently, shaped by age-related https://t.co/ubVRhhRGxG

Leaky pipeline in rheumatology:
In a 23-country survey, women left hospital practice earlier—26% at trainee level vs 7% of men.
Top reasons?
🚫 Unfair promotion
🚫 Poor communication
🚫 No career path
Workplace equity still lags.

Interesting debate today #EULAR2025 about medical cannabis - where relative harms have come up.
Would you rather be addicted to prescription opioids or recreational cannabis?
(not going to argue about cannabis addiction - let’s say social impact is equal)

#EULAR2025 Abstr#OP0075 Interesting that even among #SLE patients, no single definition of “Lupus Under Control” reached at least 50% agreement. Live Poll with clinicians in the room further highlighted the discordant. More works are needed - to help tailor management @RheumNow https://t.co/WzkQkMD23i

The global regenerative medicine market is estimated to be valued at USD 9.8 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 22.05 billion by 2035 -- AMAZING, especially since the (lack of) science and most evidence does NOT support it's efficacy! https://t.co/2D2K1jrQZH https://t.co/UBMPgeZ25G
