Uveitis exposure-adjusted incidence rates per 100 patient years (EAIR/100PY) ranged between 0-4.5 for tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi), 0.5-3.9 for interleukin-17 inhibitors (IL-17i) and 0.8-3.3 for upadacitinib (UPA), as derived from available RCTs. Evidence from non-RCTs, reporting uveitis incidence rates per 100PY, ranged between 3.46-55.2 for etanercept, 1.38-15.7 for adalimumab, 1.82-25.9 for infliximab, 1.39-6.8 for golimumab, 0-9.4 for secukinumab and 0 for ixekizumab...IL-17i are identified as second line treatment option especially in uveitis refractory to TNFi. Finally, JAKi remain a promising alternative, with more evidence needed to further establish their so far proven efficacy.

The JSpA in this cohort demonstrated substantial disease burden, with frequent axial and peripheral involvement. Although 43.2% of patients achieved clinical remission, sustained remission off medication was observed in only 10.2%, reflecting the chronic disease course. Early diagnosis and optimized treatment strategies remain essential to improve outcomes.

This comprehensive analysis assesses therapeutic outcomes and adverse effects of TNFi, IL17i, and JAKi in AS care.

ASAS20/40 treatment effects have declined over time in axSpA trials, consistent with a fading of reported effectiveness, whereas ASDAS-based endpoints remain stable, indicating greater robustness to placebo effects and temporal trends.

One quarter of IBD patients requiring intensified anti-TNFa therapie were successfully deescalated to standard dosing, after a median of 16.0 (IQR: 8.0-36.0) months.

Tumor necrosis alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitors are a group of biologics approved for treatment of AS (e.g. adalimumab, certolizumab pegol, golimumab, infliximab, etanercept), and they are usually first choice of treatment when starting biological therapy. Another group of biologic agents approved for the treatment of AS are interleukin-17 (IL-17) inhibitors, such as secukinumab and ixekizumab...The selected therapy proved to be effective, leading to a notable reduction in overall pain and morning stiffness. Clinical improvement was measured by a decrease in the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), which dropped from 5.3 prior to treatment to 2.95 after six months of therapy.

This study aims to identify key NET-associated molecular signatures in UC, develop diagnostic models based on NET-related biomarkers, and construct predictive models for response to anti-TNF-α therapies (infliximab and golimumab). A distinct NET-associated cluster was identified among patients with UC, exhibiting non-responsiveness to anti-TNF-α treatment. Diagnostic and prognostic models based on NET-associated genes hold promise for guiding clinical treatment strategies.

Studies reporting on infant infection rates, vaccination outcomes, and adverse events following in-utero or breastfeeding exposure to TNFi agents, including certolizumab pegol, adalimumab, infliximab, etanercept, and golimumab. The data indicate that TNFi does not increase the risk of severe infections or vaccine complications in infants, with the exception of the Bacille Calmette-Guerin vaccine, for which a more cautious approach is recommended. These findings reinforce the use of TNFi in women with inflammatory conditions who are pregnant or breastfeeding, providing benefits to both maternal and fetal health.
