#ACR25 - Tuesday posters

🌟 Spondyloarthritis abstracts
So excited about Dr. Daniel Whibley’s presentation at #ACR25 on Cognitive Dysfunction and how it Manifests in those living w/Fibromyalgia. He shared several ways to conduct baseline cognitive tests.

Absolutely thrilled to catch this #ACR25 session on the Cognitive Function in Rheumatic Diseases. The first presentation was given by, patient advocate, Mary Alore sharing her experience with brain fog.

Dr. Jillian Rose also shared some great analogies for what NOT talking about sex health is like!

🔸…it’s like treating half the disease.
🔸…is like measuring function without asking about QoL (quality of life)

Learning a lot in an #ACR25 session led by @ireneblanco.bsky.social & hearing Patient Advocate, Grayson Schultz speak on the many barriers LGBTQIA+ individuals face while trying to access healthcare & how to navigate rheumatology care as an LGBTQIA+ patient. #LADAorg #LupusChat @ladaorg.bsky.social
You’re so welcome! Your presentation was awesome! I want to connect with you post conference. If that’s ok, can you DM me your email?
Grayson Schultz encourages providers to lead w/empathy, how to address discrimination, & why LGBTQIA+ representation is needed in research

🔹 adopt a trauma-informed care mindset
🔹 avoid assumptions & stereotypes
🔹 engage in ongoing education
🔹 mistakes occur, apologize/move on

Surprise @lupuschat.bsky.social spotting in Dr. Martha Delgado’s #ACR25 session! An FYI, #LupusChat gave a presentation at the NIH NIAMS annual clinical research event in both 2019 and 2024 on the importance of utilizing digital tools to build communities and advance health literacy. #LADAorg
Dr. Martha Delgado gave a great #ACR25 presentation focused on improving patient participation in clinical trials in Latino communities. She shared barriers for both patients & providers as well current efforts to remove barriers.

I loved that a social media study made it into the #ACR25 pediatric year in review

There is so much untapped potential to understand how to reach out to people living with rheumatic disease and provide education and combat misinformation
