When patients have questions, can artificial intelligence (AI) generate accurate, comprehensive answers? Ye et al. conducted a single-center, cross-sectional survey of rheumatology patients and physicians in Edmonton, Canada, to explore that question.

Brains & Brawn: Exciting Developments in Our Understanding of Myositis
SAN DIEGO—The inflammatory myopathies are a heterogeneous group of conditions that, although discovered decades ago, continue to challenge rheumatologists in terms of their myriad clinical presentations. In Flexing Strong Science on Weak Muscles: Genetics, Genomics and Autoantibodies in Myositis, two speakers provided exceptionally helpful insights into these conditions, using novel tools for analysis. 6 Types…
The Heterogeneity of Psoriatic Arthritis
SAN DIEGO—Differences between psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis highlight the need for the development of imaging modalities, laboratory tests and other biomarkers that are explored and validated specifically for PsA to advance the goal of personalized or precision medicine. In this article, expert David S. Pisetsky, MD, PhD, explores the top research in psoriatic arthritis presented at ACR Convergence 2023.
FDA Commissioner Charts Potential & Challenges of Emerging Technologies in Patient Care
Disparities, representativeness, algorithmic bias, the disruptive emergence of large language models and continued misinformation spread are key issues poised to transform patient care in American healthcare, FDA Commissioner Robert M. Califf, MD, said during a recent event.
Large Language Models in Medicine: The potential to reduce workloads, leverage the EMR for better communication & more
Large language models are a type of AI that allows users to generate new content, drawing from a huge dataset to learn how to mimic “natural language” with many possible beneficial applications for this technology in medicine.
A Primer on Imaging in Myositis
In medicine, as in advertising, pictures can be worth a thousand words. From arthritis to vasculitis, imaging studies have been variably employed to aid in the diagnosis, treatment, risk stratification and prognostication of patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal disorders. The same holds true with the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), in which the clinical utility is…
Exploring the Role of Artificial Intelligence in Rheumatology
I looked at the joints. They spoke back to me—”I need more humanism,” they whispered. To longtime readers, those two sentences may sound both familiar and alien, perhaps even a little humorous. That’s because those sentences were generated entirely by a computer using artificial intelligence (AI). It was simple, too: I just copied the text…
Gene Profiling May Predict Treatment Response in Refractory Rheumatoid Arthritis
NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—In patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) refractory to treatment with rituximab or tocilizumab, genetic profiling of synovial biopsies predicted the lack of therapeutic response better than a model using only tissue pathology or clinical factors, researchers say.1 “We believe this study is a paradigm shift in precision medicine in RA,” Dr. Costantino…
An Oral Targeted Therapy: RheumMadness 2022 Pim Kinases Scouting Report
According to research, Pim kinases contribute to the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and may have the therapeutic potential for inhibition in patients with RA.
Updates on JAK Inhibitor Safety, COVID-19 Vaccination in Immunosuppressed Patients & More
ACR CONVERGENCE 2021—The ACR Convergence 2021 meeting reflected the continued advancement of science and practical research in the field of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Among the most important topics this year in RA was the evolution of the risk-benefit profile of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, for which new safety data emerged in a series of related…
