      Dermatologists doing ultrasound (US) for earlier diagnosis of PsA? Grobelski et al showed in this study of 140 PsA patients, pre-US sensitivity/specifity was 81%/55%, post-US this changed to 62%/91%. Targeted US improved accuracy of referrals for PsA #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0029 https://t.co/iajqMuPqcd

      Sex differences may affect the response to first line TNFi in AxSpA. Hellamund et al EuroSpA study showed the TNFi 6/12/24 month retention rate was lower in females (58%) compared to males (72%). Females had lower CRP level and higher PROs at baseline #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0020 https://t.co/ANgRYMxpat

      RA patients close to the equator (i.e. ‘Global South’) get RA earlier in life than the temperate world. Is it patient-level characteristics like smoking? No. It’s country-level factors e.g. socioeconomic status. Are rich world and poor world RA the same? #EULAR2022 @RheumNow https://t.co/tAzGHzaZGe

      #POS0114 #EULAR2022 Can we identify #lupus patients better in electronic health records? Barbero et al. used machine learning and developed a model to distinguish SLE diagnosis vs "near-misses". AUC: 0.90. Further validation can help future epidemiological studies @RheumNow https://t.co/vpLH8SWlWm

      Upadacitinib shows promising response in the treatment of nr-AxSpA in the SELECT-AXIS 2 study. Deodhar et al showed the ASAS40 response rate for UPA was twice vs placebo (45% vs 23%). 12/14 of the secondary endpoints were also met #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0016 https://t.co/dOWVJdLRtG

      ANCA vasculitis guidelines make sense. Less use of cyclophosphamide was already the case, rituximab can be for induction & maintenance, I am reluctant though in severe disease to stop maintenance Rx at 1 or 2 yrs and go longer as at least 1/3 will relapse beyond 2 yrs. @RheumNow https://t.co/3xRHWya2Uq

      Occupational and non occupational silica exposure in RA increases ILD. At home exposure was higher in women due to cleaning - talc, laundry detergents, etc. Maybe some items should be banned or people protected - ? Masks. V interesting #OP0006 @RheumNow #EULAR2022 @eular_org

      Kading et al reports axial disease in 1/3 of patients with PsA, 55% females, 45% HLA-B27+, in 20% there was spinal but no SI joint involvement. Starts to define the Axial PsA patient as more female, less HLA-B27+ and may have only spinal inflammation #EULAR2022 @RheumNow OP0026
