🧬 Big news in rheumatology: Our patients using GLP-1 medications (yes, the same ones used for diabetes and weight loss) have some pros and cons for our patients:
PRO: They may reduce inflammation and improve symptoms like morning stiffness and fatigue.
CON: Volume depletion that may affect patients on diuretics or with chronic kidney disease.

If you’re curious about how GLP-1 therapy might intersect with rheumatic care, learn more in this month's NCRA blog. https://ncrheum.org/era-of-glp-1-medication/

🇺🇸 This Veterans Day, we honor the courage, service and sacrifice of our U.S. veterans and their families.

NCRA is deeply grateful to the veterans in our communities—including those living with chronic rheumatic and autoimmune conditions.

To the veterans who serve as patients, clinicians, caregivers, advocates, family members, and neighbors — thank you.
Your resilience inspires us every day. 💙 We honor you today and always.

🧠✨ A new frontier in rheumatology: Did you know that beyond medications, we’re now tapping into the body’s own wiring to combat inflammation? The latest research on the Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) shows real promise for people living with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Read the latest NCRA blog. We’re committed to sharing these advances so that every person in North Carolina has access to the latest information. https://ncrheum.org/harnessing-the-nerve-vagus-nerve-stimulation-for-rheumatoid-arthritis/

Why did the rheumatologist bring a skeleton to the staff meeting?
Because they needed a joint collaborator. 😄🦴

Tomorrow's the day to bring your friends and coworkers together for our NCRA Fall Summit!
https://ncrheum.org/2025-fall-summit/

Today is a day to raise awareness, honor those living with arthritis and recommit to better care, understanding and research.

At NCRA, we see the faces behind the diagnosis: people in rural towns, busy parents, elderly neighbors, young people fighting invisible pain and every story in between.

Let’s work together for a better North Carolina!
