Ethics Forum: Righting the Wrong Diagnosis

Joseph L. Green, DO  |  May 18, 2018

A 54-year-old woman is establishing care in your clinic after retirement of her previous rheumatologist. Your review of her records suggests that she was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus seven years ago on the basis of symptoms of body pain and fatigue, and serologic evidence of positive ANA 1:40 (speckled) and borderline anti-SSB antibody. She…

How Footwear Affects Patients with Medial Knee Osteoarthritis

Carina Stanton  |  May 18, 2018

A patient’s gait, or how they walk, is an important predictor of the biomechanical load distribution that affects osteoarthritis (OA). This understanding comes from a growing body of literature in bio­mechanics to test and treat patients with OA, which takes into account a very practical treatment: a patient’s shoes. A focus on flexible footwear, along…

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  May 18, 2018

FDA to Review Abuse-Deterrent Oxycodone Capsule In June, the FDA will discuss the New Drug Application for Remoxy ER at an Advisory Committee meeting.

ACR Past President Dr. Bill St.Clair Is an Avid Duke Basketball Fan

Carol Patton  |  May 18, 2018

Bill St.Clair, MD, MACR, says one of the most exciting and proudest moments in his life wasn’t earning his medial degree or seeing his first published article on arthritis and rheumatology. Not even close. It was the 1991 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) basketball semifinal. Specifically, the basketball game between Duke University and the University…

Improved Family Planning Counseling Needed

Susan Bernstein  |  May 18, 2018

In the U.S. today, approximately 45% of pregnancies are unintended or unplanned.1 Although this rate is considerably lower than in the past, women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or inflammatory myopathies tend to have better pregnancy outcomes if their disease is well controlled when they conceive. In addition, women taking certain medications…

5 Ways to Unlock the Power of Consultation

Eli M. Miloslavsky, MD, & Jakob I. McSparron, MD  |  May 18, 2018

Think back to your time as a trainee. Do you remember an interaction with a consultant in which you learned something, felt your opinion was heard, were empowered to collaborate with the consulting team and knew you were pro­viding outstanding care? We suspect a number of examples come to mind, regardless of the amount of…

Tips & Tools for Dealing with Bad Patient Outcomes

Larry Beresford  |  May 18, 2018

Bad things happen to good rheumatologists—and to their patients—and can have profound personal and professional consequences for the doctor. Sometimes recommended treatments can have predictable, but devastating, side effects. Even if the rheumatologist does everything right according to evidence-based best practice, patients can still have bad outcomes, even die—with resulting feelings of sadness, anger, guilt…

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps & Their Role in Autoimmunity

Kathy Holliman  |  May 18, 2018

Certain medications have been associated for decades with the development of drug-induced autoimmunity. New research published in March 2018 in Arthritis & Rheumatology suggests that NETs (neutro­phil extracellular traps) are potentially implicated in the mechanisms that lead to drug-induced autoimmunity.1 Peter Grayson, MD, MSc, head of the Vasculitis Translational Research Program at the National Institute…

Study Assesses Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Safety in Rheumatic Disease

Kurt Ullman  |  May 18, 2018

Since they were first introduced in 2011, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become an important treatment for an expanding list of advanced cancers. Some concerns have been raised around the mechanism of action of these immunotherapy agents, making their use in rheumatic diseases (RD) problematical. An article in the March 2018 issue of Arthritis &…

Pediatric Rheumatologist Dr. Lynn Punaro Loves a Good Mystery

Kelly Tyrrell  |  May 18, 2018

When Marilynn “Lynn” Punaro, MD, MACR, isn’t working with medical students, seeing patients in the clinic, participating in translational research or performing leadership duties, she’s enjoying a good book—especially a good mystery. This shouldn’t be a surprise. It was mystery that led Dr. Punaro to a career in pediatric rheumatology more than 30 years ago,…
