My favorite M from the 5M approach in management of geriatric patients with RA: What MATTERS the most! Rheumatic disease in older adults are a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. "Numbers arent the enemy, unnecessary prescribing is" Is the plan we are offering aligning with

"Guard against 'good enough.'"- Una Makris asks us to check our bias and not assume at a certain age you can only do certain things. Ask the patient to understand their activities/limitations and desires to base your treatment decision #RNL2025 @rheumnow

Cutting #indirectcosts from NIH will lead to an immediate loss of $63M in life saving medical research funding to UTSW Science alone. Senator John Cornyn and Beth Van Duyne please consider the massive impact this will have on your constituents, and the biomedical economy of your district
