Guidelines for methotrexate (MTX) use in rheumatic disease may not be feasible for physicians practicing in the least developed countries. We aimed to understand the experiences of MTX prescribers relating to MTX use for rheumatic disease in African countries to inform the development of culturally and geographically appropriate recommendations.

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are usually treated with glucocorticosteroids even during periods of clinically quiescent disease. A recent study showed that abrupt glucocorticoid withdrawal was associated with an increased likelihood of flare in the next 12 months. The aim of the present study was to assess clinical flare rates and damage accrual in patients who tapered glucocorticosteroids gradually.

The association of sarcopenia with development of knee osteoarthritis (OA) or knee pain in older adults is uncertain. We examined the relationship of grip strength and appendicular lean mass (ALM) with the likelihood of developing knee OA and knee pain in older adults in the Health ABC (Health, Aging, and Body Composition) Study.

With increasing numbers of patients with rheumatoid arthritis achieving sustained remission, medication withdrawal is an important consideration to reduce polypharmacy and associated adverse events. An article from the journal Arthritis & Rheumatology (1) explores the treatment withdrawal options for patients on etanercept and methotrexate combination therapies and suggests methotrexate withdrawal has the least impact on disease worsening. There are limitations in the study, including the use of only one disease activity score and no assessment of radiographic progression, but, overall, the article provides a good framework for future studies on treatment withdrawal options and the possibility of medication reduction for patients.
