PMR/GCA reccs:
1. Refer to a specialist with expertise
2. For GCA- start steroids without delay
3. PMR pred dose 15-25 mg/d taper to 10 mg/d in 1 year (for major relapse treat like new onset, for minor relapse, increase to last effective dose
According to George Bertsias, biological therapies in SLE may be considered when disease control remains incomplete despite standard care, particularly in patients with high clinical burden, ongoing activity or flares.

The axSpA classification has been revised with the 2025 ASAS SPARTAN criteria. 5 abstracts at #EULAR2026 Abstr OP0236, OP0100, OP0239, POS0190 and POS1341.
The single most important change in the 2025 criteria: MRI is now the highest-weighted variable and what counts as a positive MRI has been completely redefined. Bone marrow oedema alone is no longer sufficient. OP0100 #axSpA #MRI

Although GCA and Takayasu arteritis share many inflammatory pathways, important biological differences remain.
Fibrosis and vascular remodeling appear to play a greater role in TAK, whereas active inflammation accounts for a larger proportion of tissue damage in GCA. #EULAR2026
