American College of Rheumatology--63rd annual meeting. 13-17 November 1999, Boston, MA, USA.
The 63rd National Scientific Meeting of the American College of Rheumatology was quite general in scope, with clinical and animal model studies forming the basis for this report. Arthritis-suppressive medications were further analyzed as to morbidity and effect on disease progression. Biological therapy was an important topic. Intervention for gastroprotection, osteoarthritis, spondyloarthropathy, lupus, osteoporosis and antiphospholipid antibodies, was especially explored.
