RESUMO
New evidence from 2023 has slightly shifted some perspectives on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management. Glucocorticoids have reaffirmed their role as bridging therapy, while novel studies on JAK inhibitors have examined efficacy, mechanism of action, and their potential in high-risk populations, bolstering our understanding with real-world data.Additionally, among treatment strategies, achieving low disease activity has emerged as comparable to achieving remission in the long term, and new insights have been gained regarding tapering both biological and conventional synthetic DMARDs. Furthermore, novel approaches have been proposed for managing difficult-to-treat RA and pre-RA. In this paper, the reviewers aim to present the most relevant studies published during the last year in the field of RA management.
