January 13, 2023 Autoantibodies against PTM proteins as biomarkers for lupus
Autoantibodies against post-translationally modified proteins (PTM) are described in various rheumatic diseases and facilitate diagnosis and patient stratification. Researchers from the Leiden University Medical Center analysed the presence of autoantibodies against six different post-translational modifications in a cohort of patients with neuropsychiatric lupus.

May 18, 2018 A standardised catalogue of patient scenarios to improve the ranking of RA disease activity?
To better standardise the evaluation of disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis patients, especially in moderate disease, consensus scores of their medical doctor (MD) global ratings (EGA) are needed.
Dr Janet Pope (Western University of Canada) suggests the development of a catalogue of patient scenarios to decrease the wide variability of ranking among rheumatologists. She explains how that could work in this conversation with Dr Paul Studenic (Medical University Vienna, Austria).
