Autoimmunity in 2015

2015 ACR meeting is getting closer. We refresh the contents of last year edition by suggesting The 2014 ACR annual meeting: a bird’s eye view of autoimmunity in 2015

SUMMARY
The November 2014 annual meeting of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) that took place in Boston, MA. In this article the coauthors have gathered their personal viewpoints on specific issues and arbitrarily selected a limited number of abstracts that appeared most interesting. The resulting report falls short of a proper summary of the meeting and cannot substitute the attendance but it may prove helpful both to attendees who had to choose other sessions as well as to colleagues who could not attend the meeting. Broad issues are here discussed such as the proposed biomarkers for different conditions or B cell mechanisms as well as the proposed data from rheumatic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS), and fibromyalgia.
