We are committed to providing a transformative experience for these patients.<br> <br> As we lean into ½ðºÌÓéÀֳǒs Accelerate &amp; Expand phase, it is our ambition to lead the way in providing holistic solutions that address patient needs at all key milestones in their healthcare journey.<br> <br> Our innovative research in axSpA and PsA has laid a solid foundation to help us achieve our future vision for meeting the needs of these patients. There is great opportunity to innovate and improve care for patients with axSpA, starting with earlier and more accurate diagnoses.<br> <br> Additionally, with the launch of the Advantage Hers campaign last month, we are continuing to highlight the unmet needs and unique challenges of women living with rheumatic diseases and other chronic inflammatory conditions.<br> <br> Furthermore, we are empowering and equipping these patients to have informed conversations with their specialist about creating a management plan that is best tailored to their individual needs.<br> <br> World Arthritis Day, led by the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR), aims to help people living with RMDs avoid long-term complications by improving education of the condition, promoting early diagnosis and encouraging access to care.<br> <br> EULAR’s campaign theme ‘Don’t Delay, Connect Today,’ calls on the public, physicians, policymakers and health professionals to connect and diagnose RMDs earlier and provide timely access to evidence-based treatment.<br> <br> RMDs impact hundreds of millions of people worldwide and predominantly affect a person’s joints, muscles and connective tissues, causing pain and loss of physical function.<br> &nbsp; <div>Today, and every day, ½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç remains dedicated to providing innovative solutions to people living with these diseases and to raising public awareness of the importance of early diagnosis and available treatment options.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-newsroom-category field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field__items"> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1909" hreflang="en">solutions</a> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-newsroom-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field__items"> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1821" hreflang="en">World Arthritis Day 2020</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1468" hreflang="en"> rheumatic diseases</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1355" hreflang="en"> psoriatic arthritis</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1822" hreflang="en"> musculoskeletal diseases</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1396" hreflang="en"> axial spondyloarthritis</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1823" hreflang="en"> Advantage Hers</a> </div> <div> <div class="comments-wrapper"> <div class="comment-area"> <h2 class="red">Leave a Comment</h2> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderForm" arguments="0=node&amp;1=7300&amp;2=field_newsroom_askexpert&amp;3=ask_expert" token="62lhqXXIkhM72G6OJErLJiQODCfKCofdZDakEvkCu5w"></drupal-render-placeholder> <span class="toggle-form js-toggle-form"></span> </div> </div> </div> <span class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_16 addtoany_list" data-a2a-url="/solutions/magazine/detail/article/ucb-recognizes-world-arthritis-day-2020" data-a2a-title="½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç Recognizes World Arthritis Day 2020"><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ucb.com%2Fsolutions%2Fmagazine%2Fdetail%2Farticle%2Fucb-recognizes-world-arthritis-day-2020&amp;title=½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç%20Recognizes%20World%20Arthritis%20Day%202020"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_facebook"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/facebook-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_linkedin"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/linkedin-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_twitter"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/twitter-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="twitter"></a></span> <div class="field field--name-field-like field--type-likes-dislikes field--label-above field__items"> <div class="like_dislike"> <div class="like"> <a rel="nofollow" class="use-ajax" href="/like-dislike/like/eyJlbnRpdHlfdHlwZSI6Im5vZGUiLCJlbnRpdHlfaWQiOiI3MzAwIiwiZmllbGRfbmFtZSI6ImZpZWxkX2xpa2UiLCJsaWtlcyI6Ijc0MyIsImRpc2xpa2VzIjoiLTU1In0%3D"></a> <span class="like-7300"> 743 Likes </span> </div> </div> <div id="like_dislike_status"></div> </div> Mon, 12 Oct 2020 08:30:00 +0000 eCMSadmin 7300 at
