Real-world experience with filgotinib for rheumatoid arthritis in Germany : A retrospective chart review.

Background: Real-world data for filgotinib, a Janus kinase (JAK)1 inhibitor, are limited in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Objectives: To explore real-world filgotinib use in patients with RA in Germany.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective chart review included patients aged ≥ 18 years with confirmed moderate to severe RA who initiated filgotinib before December 1, 2021, with ≥ 6 months of medical records available prior to filgotinib initiation or after initial diagnosis.

Real-world treatment persistence in patients with rheumatoid arthritis initiating DMARDs in Germany-a health insurance claims data analysis.

Objective: To investigate treatment patterns in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Germany who had previously received conventional synthetic (cs) or biologic (b) disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

Methods: Patients with RA who initiated treatment with a csDMARD, bDMARD, or Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor between 2017 and 2018 and who had previously received csDMARD or bDMARD therapy were retrospectively selected from the Institute for Applied Health Research Berlin GmbH (InGef). Time on treatment and discontinuation risk were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Formation of Highly Ordered Molecular Porous 2D Networks from Cyano-Functionalized Porphyrins on Cu(111).

We investigated the adsorption of three related cyano-functionalized tetraphenyl porphyrin derivatives on Cu(111) by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) with the goal to identify the role of the cyano group and the central Cu atom for the intermolecular and supramolecular arrangement. The porphyrin derivatives studied were Cu-TCNPP, Cu-cisDCNPP, and 2H-cisDCNPP, that is, Cu-5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(p-cyano)-phenylporphyrin, Cu-meso-cis-di(p-cyano)-phenylporphyrin and 2H-meso-cis-di(p-cyano)-phenylporphyrin, respectively. Starting from different structures obtained after deposition at room temperature, all three molecules form the same long-range ordered hexagonal honeycomb-type structure with triangular pores and three molecules per unit cell.

Binary supramolecular networks of bridged triphenylamines with different substituents and identical scaffolds.

Based on scanning tunneling microscopy experiments combined with density functional theory, we report the formation and the electronic structure of porous binary supramolecular networks on Au(111). The two triphenylamine derivatives with identical scaffolds intermix due to a maximization of the overall number of H-bonds instead of an optimization of the H-bond strength in the bonding motif. The HOMO-LUMO gap is defined by both molecules, which is typical for electron donor-acceptor networks.

"Inverted" porphyrins: a distorted adsorption geometry of free-base porphyrins on Cu(111).

Based on density functional theory calculations combined with experimental results, we report and discuss an extremely distorted, "inverted" adsorption geometry of free-base tetraphenylporphyrin on Cu(111). The current findings yield new insights into a well-studied system, shedding light on the peculiar molecule-substrate interaction and the resulting intramolecular conformation.
