In this Evidence-Based Guideline article, an international multidisciplinary working group of the European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis and Musculoskeletal Diseases presents recommendations for the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of osteoporosis in men.

Multidimensional and single-cell profiling of peripheral blood and inflamed tissues is a powerful and high-resolution tool for the stratification of patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases into distinct cellular and/or molecular endotypes. The road towards precision rheumatology is long, but the time has come to enter the territory of clinical validation.

Despite the transformative potential of treatments for systemic autoinflammatory diseases, these conditions remain underfunded and understudied. Urgent, coordinated action among stakeholders is needed to overcome regulatory and research barriers, as is innovation and advocacy for the development of effective therapies for these rare diseases.

The peptide hormone adropin, which is downregulated in dermal fibroblasts in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), inhibits TGFβ-mediated fibrosis in in vitro and ex vivo models of human skin, and has potential for the treatment of SSc.

Medication adherence in gout is low, and discontinuation of urate-lowering therapy puts patients at risk of flares and cardiovascular events. A strategy to regularly monitor serum urate levels and the dissolution of urate deposits (particularly if visualized by patients) might encourage adherence in the long term.

In a head-to-head phase III trial of two drugs that target IL-5 or its receptor, benralizumab was noninferior to mepolizumab for the induction of remission in patients with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis.
