How to Differentiate Between & Manage Hypereosinophilic Syndromes & EGPA
Hypereosinophilic syndromes and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) represent a spectrum of eosinophilic disorders. Amy D. Klion, MD, provided a detailed overview of this spectrum during ACR Convergence 2021.
Multidisciplinary Guidance for Pulmonary Disease in Sjögren’s Syndrome
Lung disease is common, variable and frequently underdiagnosed in patients with Sjögren’s syndrome. An expert pulmonologist and a rheumatologist discussed the diagnosis and management of pulmonary manifestations of Sjögren’s syndrome during ACR Convergence 2021.
How Do Axial SpA & PsA with Axial Involvement Differ?
The differences between axial spondyloarthropathy (axSpA) and axial involvement in psoriatic arthritis (axPsA) have clinical and therapeutic implications. Three experts discussed the distinctions during ACR Convergence 2021.
New Data Highlight Effectiveness of Guselkumab for Patients with PsA
The use of guselkumab improved joint and skin symptoms in biologic naive patients with PsA, according to research presented during ACR Convergence 2021.
Tigulixostat Appears Promising for the Treatment of Gout

The Ins & Outs of ILD: The Management & Treatment of ILD in Patients with Rheumatic Disease
Melissa Griffith, MD, discussed the diagnosis and treatment of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in patients with rheumatic diseases, including connective tissue disease and more.
How to Manage Critical Illness in Patients with Autoimmune Disease
Patients in intensive care may experience dangerous manifestations of rheumatic disease, such as digital ischemia, multi-system organ failure and more. In a session at ACR Convergence 2021, experts addressed how to manage and treat these critically ill patients.
Insights into JAK Inhibitor Use
According to a German study presented during ACR Convergence 2021, treatment persistence with JAK inhibitors is comparable to TNF inhibitors and other bDMARDs among patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Tocilizumab Promising for the Treatment of Polymyalgia Rheumatica
