Ethics Forum: The Current Landscape of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
A handful of articles on artificial intelligence (AI) have graced the pages of this publication in the past six years, including one by Bharat Kumar, MD, in November 2022. Dr. Kumar highlighted the exciting potential of AI in rheumatology, including machine learning (ML) algorithms for the prediction of response to methotrexate and a predictive model…
Telehealth Triage Study Seeks to Close Gaps in Care
Reducing the time to diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment is paramount to intercept inflammatory damage in patients at the onset of rheumatic disease. But those targets can be delayed by provider shortages and other barriers to care. Since last June, Remission Medical, a virtual rheumatology clinic, has been partnering with Mayo Clinic to find…
Design Thinking & The Rheumatologist

Evidence of Things Not Seen: The Match, Vienna & Unknown Unknowns
It is better to be feared than loved. The associate dean of student affairs at my medical school embraced this motto. Although the dean of the medical school was titularly in charge, it was the associate dean who kept the school running. And we all feared her, just a little bit. Without ever raising her…
Lupus or Not? Machine Learning May Help Diagnose Lupus Early
Can machine learning aid clinicians in diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus? Adamichou et al. designed an algorithm that uses classical features of lupus to simulate medical reasoning and identify lupus early in the disease process. They were able to validate the algorithm, which demonstrated high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy.
Study Probes Utility of Neutrophil Biomarkers in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Neutrophils, often hailed as guardians against infections, are maligned when it comes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) due to their role in both the initial stage and disease progression. A new multicenter work, “A Neutrophil Activation Biomarker Panel in Prognosis and Monitoring of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis,” seeks to expand the literature on this topic.1 The…
