Was on a Twitter hiatus for a bit while focusing my energy on raising a tiny human 🤱👶 but I appreciate this highlight from a few weeks ago of work conducted with @alhkim@sarakellahan and the rest of our team!
If you don't feel like reading all the technical details of our recent publications, @sarakellahan and I wrote an article for @RheumatologyNet highlighting the main points of our work! Check it out 👇👇
Continued thanks to @alhkim @WUSTL_Rheum @WUSTL_Lupus for the support!
Ongoing research is also being conducted to better understand what other #SocialDeterminantsofHealth, beyond simply the patient's race, impact health outcomes of individuals with rheumatic diseases. 7/8
📣📢 New paper officially available online! 🚨🚨
@alhkim beat me to highlighting it, but our manuscript on anxiety trajectories among patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus is out now in ACR Open Rheumatology! https://t.co/WlUNzKLTIU

The majority of patients demonstrated persistent depression over a period of up to four years. The lack of a consistent relationship of CESD-R with SLE disease activity highlights the need to better understand the persistence of depression in our patients with SLE. 5/
The video has been edited and the presentation now starts at 9:00 min - thanks ACR for including the video marks for easier access to the sections that people want to view.
Spent the day catching up on #ACR21 Global Summit from last night (yay for living in NZ 💤). Some great examples on involving the entire team to improve care:
👩⚕️ train rheum nurses,
🏃🏼♀️ upskill physiotherapists &
🗣 promote pt engagement @emilysirotich@hausmannMD@sarakellahan 🙏
Physical therapists are important in all stages of #rheumatology care. At the @karolinskainst they are even involved in the diagnosis work-up to see if people have a #rheumatic disease, says physical therapist Dr. Helene Alexanderson at #ACR21.
Don't miss the inaugural #ACRGlobal Rheumatology Summit! Bringing a global perspective to the #ACR2021. Opening Dr. @yodifiji, followed by the Meet-The-Experts in ANCA vasculitis and Innovative Solutions in Global Challenges. Will meet you there! https://t.co/C34FCSnu4D @ACRheum
