Is the #Shingrix vaccine safe for people with #inflammatoryarthritis? Reassuring data at #ACR19 from @uthsc found the vaccine was well tolerated among patients, with no differences in #CRP or #PRO levels before and after getting the shot. #ArthritisWeek
Sacroiliitis (SI) is common in #crohns disease but may be underdiagnosed bc pts don’t associate #backpain with #GI symptoms. New #ACR19 study from @nyuschoolofmed shows GI docs can use magnetic resonance enteropgraphy to screen for SI & refer to a #rheumatologist. #ArthritisWeek
Studying the #gutbacteria of children at risk for #ankylosingspondylitis (because of family history) could be a “target of future preventative efforts” says #ACR19 research from @UABNews @UCSFMedicine @QUT and others. #ArthritisWeek
More research needed on #RA pts’ perspectives on #flares during tapering. #ACR19 study found the effect of a flare can last for at least 6 months. Important to talk to your #rheum about possibility of flares before tapering. Have an action plan for treatment! #ArthritisWeek
Which #axSpA patients are likely to develop #IBD? Turkish research at #ACR19 found studying stool samples could provide a clue. Fecal calprotectin levels were higher in 15% of asymptomatic axSpA patients. Follow-up is needed to see if this can predict onset of IBD. #ArthritisWeek
We're loving patient-reported outcomes (#PRO) research at #ACR19. Research found that in #axSpA pts, #CRP levels were similar between male & female pts, but females had worse PROs. Track your with an app like #ArthritisPower for productive convos with your doctor. #ArthritisWeek
What factors influence whether patients have good adherence to biologic infusions for #RA? An #ACR19 study from Brazil researchers looked at a number of factors and found the main one was … having health coverage. #ArthritisWeek
High disease activity & functional impairment in #SpA are linked w/ decreased ability to work, says #ACR19 research. No links with sex, age, symptom duration, type of work, or type of SpA. This “underscores the need for tight disease control in patients with SpA.” #ArthritisWeek
Always eager to see more research on #tapering #RA drugs. An #ACR19 study found that patients with well-controlled and a shorter duration of disease were more likely to consider tapering as an option than those who had RA longer. #ArthritisWeek
Which #RA patients are more likely to have a #heartattack? #ACR19 data from @Arthritis_ARC says being male, living in a rural area, and having low socioeconomic status have a big impact on risk. Need more research and interventions focused on these populations. #ArthritisWeek
#Osteoarthritis pts have a higher prevalence of many comorbidities compared w/ #RA pts, inc. hypertension, GI/psychiatric disorders, says #ACR19 data. “The burden of having #OA in terms of overlapping symptoms & other problems is not negligible in comparison.” #ArthritisWeek
Important news for expectant moms: #ACR19 research looked at adverse pregnancy outcomes (ex: preterm birth) with #autoimmunediseases. Preeclampsia and hypertension played a big role in affecting outcomes, which highlights areas for prevention, care, and treatment. #ArthritisWeek
Raise your hand if you know this #ACR19 finding from @UCSFMedicine: Sleep issues (sleep apnea & restless leg syndrome) are more common in #RA than in the general population. But is higher disease activity a cause of sleep problems or a result? More research needed. #ArthritisWeek
Work disability is a big issue in ankylosing spondylitis patients. #ACR19 research looked at which job factors affect disability and found jobs that require more “trunk strength” lead to higher rates of disability in #AS. #ArthritisWeek
How does having #IBD along with #AS or #PsA affect health care costs? A @DrexelMedicine #ACR19 study found AS and PsA patients w/ IBD had more doctor and ER visits, more GI-related procedures, and more steroid use than patients without IBD. #ArthritisWeek
What should #RA patients who don’t do well on #MTX take next? #JAKinhibitor filgotinib prevented radiographic progression, improved physical function compared to placebo and was "well tolerated among patients with RA with prior inadequate response to MTX" #ACR19 #ArthritisWeek
1/2 of #RA patients reported 1 or more major stressors in the year before diagnosis, says #ACR19 study. After a year, disease activity was the same as those without stressors, but reported fatigue, depression, & poor sleep. Shows need for ongoing emotional support. #ArthritisWeek
