Biologic Therapies for Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disease States
This online series is a repurposing from Biologic Therapies for Autoimmune and Inflammatory Disease States Summit held on August 24-26, 2007.
Immunocompetence and Biologic Therapies
Biologic agents are associated with a small but significant risk of certain types of infection, including common respiratory, skin, and soft tissue infections and several others. It is important for clinicians who use biologic therapeutics to understand and be facile in the management of a wide array of infectious complications.
Current and Emerging Trials, Mechanisms, and Agents in B-Cell-Directed Therapies - 2008
These activities are especially for busy clinicians who are interested in keeping abreast of cutting-edge data and novel therapies in the treatment of autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs).
Rheumatoid Arthritis Virtual Grand Rounds
In this series, the current peer-reviewed literature will be used as a knowledge base from which findings will be translated for clinical application by expert faculty members, who will discuss individual patient case histories.
Rheumatoid Arthritis eJournal Club
This eJournal club will engage RA clinicians in an examination, discussion and assessment of the most recent peer-reviewed, RA literature. Areas of focus will include emerging approaches to improve patient function and quality of life, and to reduce mortality.
Hepatic Effects of Biologic Agents
This monograph is a detailed report of that discussion into the hepatic effects of biologic agents in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and their potential for the treatment of viral hepatitis.
Neuroinflammatory Diseases in Rheumatology
Advances in neuroscience in the past several years have shed new light on many of these central and periperhal nervous system manifestations, and it is clinically important that rheumatologists be able to incorporate these data into their approach to diagnosing and managing patients with these complications.
