Changes in classification criteria Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was recognised as a separate disease entity in the middle of the 20th century. Since then several sets of classification criteria were developed for use in clinical studies. The 1987 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria1 have been criticised as they are fulfilled rather late in the disease. Consequently, trials that included patients with RA based on the 1987 criteria studied patients with relatively long-standing arthritis. The aim of the American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism (ACR/EULAR) expert panel was therefore to develop novel criteria without the features of long-standing disease such as erosions or nodules. Indeed the hitherto developed 2010 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for RA2 are fulfilled earlier in the disease course than the 1987 criteria.3 4 Thus, the major objective of the new criteria was achieved. The study of Nordberg...

Joint classification criteria for systemic sclerosis from the two major specialty societies appear to be more sensitive and perform better in real-life clinical practice than the previous version.
Not surprised, steroids have no champion or big industrial firm backing it. The older DMARDs suffer from the same fate as these have gone generic. The shift from TNF inhibitors dominance to equality with newer biologics also means higher costs for patients, health care insurance. I think JAK inhibitors will be added within the next 2 years as long as Pfizer is backing it.
