@implausibleblog Continuing to try to bring politics and politicians down to base level. How sad!

Brilliant speech by Marcela Ferrada about #VEXAS at #EULAR2024

Key features to keep in mind ARE NOT gender and age of patients but ARE
🔴 unusual inflammatory features
🔴 elevated inflammatory markers
🔴 elevated MCV

🔴diagnosis is by genetic testing🔴

Excellent talk (as usual) of @HelenLachmann in #EULAR2024 on TRAPS syndrome. She raised awaireness to be cautious in presence of R92Q variant in TNFRSF1A which may be associated more likely with SURF/USAID than prototypic TRAPS

The epi of Behcets in CPRD & linked HES in news at #EULAR2024
Increasing prevalence, incidence stable
Increased risk of BD in the presence of phenotypically linked MHC1 diseases
Median time to diagnosis shortest for Genital ulceration!

We totally agree with this.

Please RT if you do too.

@APCroft @unibirmingham Congratulations Adam !

Vast numbers of epidemiological papers basically say ‘this definitely isn’t in any way causal evidence, but here are some policy interventions we think are supported by this not-causal evidence’.

And I don’t think that’s very helpful.

#HappyNewYear2024
I decided to ask a chosen few their realistic personal hope for 2024
The few are those who I have a connection with whether it’s been recent or longstanding!

All are worth sharing

✨ Phenomenal review of #Behcet’s by Dr. Seyahi #IRACON21

For Venous/Arterial Thrombosis
🎯 Immunesuppression is KEY! 👉 Anti-TNF 1st
🎯 Anticoag controversial but added if
👉 Low bleeding risk
👉 NO Pulmonary Artery aneurysm
👉 DOACs may be reasonable

📢 Hot of the press! Latest @Official_ASAS publication reiterates pivotal consensus on #axSpA nomenclature: "axSpA" as the universal term; "r-axSpA" preferred to "AS". Next steps: consistent adoption in educational materials, manuscripts, presentations, ICD-coding integration.

No better summary to remind ourselves that we shouldn’t buy ‘ populist’ conservative immigration policy. It’s their only hope of buying votes
