To finish the #ACR23 Review Course, one of my favourites: the erudite Leonard Calabrese on the complicated web between viral infections and autoimmunity. Complex interactions both ways. Isn't the immune system amazing? (& ref the Cleveland Clinic MD service led by Cassandra Calabrese) Dr. John Cush

Fantastic presentation from Mia Rodziewicz using BILAG-BR data: ⭐️NPSLE had higher damage / disease activity ⭐️ NPSLE more likely to have APS ab ⭐️ RTX appears effective in NPSLE (no trials)

A great session to wind up #ACR24 #SLE abstracts by M. Petri: Every measure of prednisone is a risk factor for fractures in SLE!

Great session Lupus 2025 on the future of drug trial design. Future clinical trials should prioritise improving global patient inclusiveness by actively addressing the underrepresentation of diverse populations, particularly those from LMICs and marginalised communities
