🎯 At #EULAR2025, Rafael Prieto Moreno reminded us:
✔️ Accessibility of digital health is good, but not perfect
✔️ Co-creation must be context-adapted
✔️ Equity must be designed—not assumed
A strong case for inclusive digital rehab tools.

📊 At #EULAR2025, Loreto Carmona illustrated how social determinants shape RA outcomes in Spain — through the compelling case of a woman living with RA.
A powerful reminder that health inequalities are lived realities.

🚺 #EULAR2025 RMD & #Menopause: is there a place for HRT? YES!
🟪 In perimenopausal women with RMD, let's consider the role of hormonal changes in the fluctuations of symptoms.
🟪 Individualized approach is the key
🟪 Benefits of HRT may outweigh the slighty increased risks in most women

🧬 Does MTX with 1st ADA shot prevent anti-ADA antibodies in axSpA?
🇫🇷 MESYNAD RCT: ❌ No difference at 6mo
💉 MTX+ADA = ADA alone
No added benefit for immunogenicity.

📊 RABBIT-SpA registry insights:
🔹 8.5% met ASAS D2M axSpA criteria (75/881)
🔹 2.5% met TR criteria (22/881)
👩 D2M-axSpA patients = more female, less HLA-B27

Results similar to those from the Dutch cohort

📍Foot OA affects 1 in 6 adults >50 and is often disabling.
🩺 Clinical ID is easier for 1st MTP than midfoot OA.
💉 Hyaluronan no better than saline.
👟 Prefab orthoses = rocker soles (but better adherence).
