Many hoped rituximab would be the panacea for all with IgG4-RD.
Consistent story: it's not.
In this European data:
- only 56% in remission at 12m
- pancreato-hepato-biliary slightly better, RPF mid-range
This story isn't over. We need other options

Interested in this late-breaker, comparative study of secukinumab (IL17) vs adalimumab (TNF) in AxSpa
No difference in radiographic progression at 1 year - in line with my perception of relative equality for these treatments
Need long term data!

Only 4 minutes to discuss adherence in #SLE. Implementation of discussion if <80% of meds filled. Academic docs - 20/24 used + reinforcement, validated in 17 Pts, 11/24 asked open ended ?s. Pts thought it was right timing. ?does it change behaviour- ? Abst0063 @RheumNow #ACR22 https://t.co/UQbRgw5Emj

All monster stories end with an unexpected award: A new order
@cuttingforstone at #ACR22 tells the monster story of #covid
“How will history review our story?”
The science will get an A+, but we failed to learn the lessons of history
All was predictable through history

Look at these graphs and try and tell me that sex and gender doesn't matter in RA.
We have seen in study after study after study - sex and gender matters.

What's the difference between RA and PsA on hand MRI?
Removing our cognitive biases, here's what a neural network has to say

Abst0327 #ACR22 SMART-SLE Monitoring
Some SLE patients with +dsDNA have persistent positivity, others have fluctuations
Anti-dsDNA in persistently positive HR 1.56 for flare risk
Change (up or down!) in dsDNA more than 2x prior visit for fluctuating patients: HR 1.43

It's always amazed me adalimumab & abatacept, have very different MOA but similar efficacy in RA - on a population level.
Not for individuals, though. Surely we can pick the winners better?
Lovely biomarker work from a H2H RCT

How close are we to measuring Interferon Signature in clinical practice?
NCounter and BioFire assays studied - correlated well we each other
Genes: IFI27, IFI44L, IFIT1, RSAD2
SLE higher than RA or FMS, but does not correlate with SLE activity

Whole mitochondrial (AwMA), AmtDNA or AmtRNA - higher in SLE compared to controls
AwMA predictive of death, AmtDNA and AmtRNA predictive of nephritis
