GCA Patients Often Need Long-Term Glucocorticoids (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In a real-world cohort of patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA), a substantial proportion required glucocorticoid (GC) therapy for more than 2 years; a prior diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) or GCA was associated with continuous GC treatment. "Despite rapid diagnosis and a strict GC tapering regimen in accordance with updated national and international guidelines, a substantial proportion of patients with GCA have a chronic, GC-dependent disease course," the authors wrote. The study
Denosumab Boosts Spine BMD in Steroid-Treated RA Cases (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Denosumab improved lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) more than alendronate in postmenopausal women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on long-term oral glucocorticoids (GCs), with a mean difference of 0.444% at 1 year. However, denosumab-treated patients showed a numerically higher fracture rate (8.1% vs 1.6%), though this difference did not reach statistical significance in the primary analysis. "Denosumab continues to be an effective choice for managing osteoporosis in this population, espec
Uveitis May Flag Possibility of Axial Spondyloarthritis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Among patients with nongranulomatous acute anterior uveitis (NG-AAU) who had no prior rheumatic diagnosis, more than 40% were newly diagnosed with axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA) after rheumatologic evaluation. Many of these patients had atypical axial symptoms. "[The] study highlights NG-AAU as an important clinical window for identifying previously undiagnosed ax-SpA, particularly in patients with mild, atypical, or intermittent axial symptoms... an interdisciplinary approach involving close,
Early Treatment May Improve Mononeuritis Multiplex Outcomes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patients with mononeuritis multiplex associated with rheumatic diseases presented predominantly with acute, asymmetric lower extremity involvement, most commonly foot drop, and more than 80% achieved favorable neurologic outcomes with immunosuppressive therapy. "[The] findings underscore the importance of early recognition, aggressive treatment, and multidisciplinary care, while highlighting the need for more precise prognostic markers to better stratify risk and guide management in this heterog
