🦋 #EULAR2026: New Insights into #SLE Therapy
(Bertsias)
Withdraw GC first in sustained remission; consider IS/biologic withdrawal after ≥3 yrs.
Safest GC withdrawal when 3 factors combine: slow taper (6m) + good HCQ adherence + remission (DORIS/LLDAS)

#EULAR2026: Treating PH in CTD (Allanore)
Novel disease-modifying drug → sotatercept (TGF-β/activin pathway), can reverse pulmonary vascular remodeling.
Unlike idiopathic #PAH, CTD-PAH has an autoimmune component → treat the disease + the pulmonary vasculature.

#EULAR2026 Prof. Della Torre
When to suspect #IgG4RD: tumefactive/stenosing lesions AFTER excluding malignancies & infections.
Serum IgG4 are NOT diagnostic: interpret in context. FDG-PET helps map disease burden. Histology remains the mainstay.

If you start with ⬇️ than 20 mg pred in subclin. GCA-> 100% relapse risk!
