Discussing Rheumatology: December 2023
Join Professor Iain McInnes in this month's CSF Podcast, where he discusses the latest information and data in rheumatology.
In this episode, he discusses two papers that compare the efficacy and safety of JAK inhibitors as RA therapies. In our first paper, Shinya Hayashi and his colleagues carried out a retrospective study to compare the efficacy of JAK inhibitors in treating RA. For our second paper, Christina Charles-Schoeman and her colleagues compared the incidence of MACE and VTE in RA and PsA patients treated with upadacitinib, adalimumab and MTX.

PsA Podcast: Impact of Biological Sex on Advanced Therapies & Upadacitinib-related Malignancies
Join Philip Mease, Professor at the University of Washington School of Medicine and Director of Rheumatology Research at the Swedish Medical Centre in Seattle, USA, and Laura Coates, an Associate Professor, NIHR clinician scientist and senior clinical research fellow at the Oxford Psoriatic Arthritis Centre, as they discuss two important topics from the world of contemporary PsA treatment.
The first of the publications they will be reviewing sought to compare patient characteristics and efficacy and safety of advanced therapies between male and female patients with PsA participating in RCTs. They then go on to discuss a second publication describing malignancies in patients with a variety of rheumatic conditions treated with upadacitinib or active comparators.

Discussing Rheumatology: November 2023
Join Professor Iain McInnes in this month's CSF Podcast, where he discusses the latest information and data in rheumatology.
In this episode, he discusses two papers that look at the incidence of disease. The first paper, the GBD 2021 Other Musculoskeletal Disorders Collaborators systematically analysed the global burden of musculoskeletal disorders, and used these data to predict prevalence up to 2050 and the second paper, Yvette Meissner and her colleagues used the German RABBIT registry to investigate the relationship between MACE risk and JAK inhibitors, TNF inhibitors, and DMARDs.
