October 2002: Gearing Up for ACR
October 2002: Gearing Up for ACR
Medscape Rheumatology is gearing up for its coverage of the American College of Rheumatology meeting, October 25-29, in New Orleans, Louisiana. Watch for articles for CME on rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis (OA), osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, Sjogren's syndrome, and more. Our expert faculty of physician authors from prestigious institutions around the country will provide clinical context for the most important presentations in these areas.
A new Ask the Experts case posted on Medscape Rheumatology in September. Arthur Kavanaugh, MD, director of the Center for Innovative Therapy in the Division of Rheumatology, Allergy, and Immunology, University of California at San Diego, discusses the role of mycophenolate mofetil in lupus nephritis.
Also, a new column has launched that will help you keep track of drugs in your armamentarium to help your patients. FDA New Drug Approvals identifies the latest drugs approved for use in the United States. The premier issue highlights approvals of antidepressants, antivirals, biologic agents, and more.
And in a new article from Current Medical Research and Opinion, read the results of surveys conducted among 2000 general practitioners and 30,000 patients with OA on the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for OA pain.
Every week, you can receive updates on what's new through Medscape Rheumatology's weekly email newsletter, MedPulse. (If you do not already subscribe to the Rheumatology MedPulse, simply click here to update your profile to receive this and other specialty MedPulse editions via email each week.)
As always, we value your feedback. Please let me know how we are doing, what new features we might offer, and how we might make the site work better for you. I may not be able to answer every email message personally, but I do read every message and will consider how we can best respond to your needs and your specific suggestions.
