Background: The real-world effectiveness of intravenous (IV) belimumab in treating systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been demonstrated in various countries through the OBSErve (evaluation Of use of Belimumab in clinical practice SEttings) program. Here we describe the clinical effectiveness of IV belimumab for treating SLE in real-world clinical practice in the Russian Federation.
Methods: In the retrospective, observational OBSErve Russia study (GSK Study 215349), eligible physicians enrolled adults with SLE receiving IV belimumab as part of their standard care.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of UPA in RA patients in real clinical practice after 3 and 6 months of therapy. The study included 63 RA patients with high activity of the disease. Activity was assessed according to the DAS28(ESR), DAS28(CRP), SDAI, CDAI; functional ability to HAQ; quality of life to the EQ-5D; disease activity according to the patient's RAPID-3 index; the level of depression and anxiety to the HADS scale.

The strategy of starting treatment with more potent regimens (zoledronic acid, denosumab and/or teriparatide) seems to have the best secondary fracture prevention efficacy.
Objective: This paper describes the various medical therapy regimens prescribed to osteoporotic patients with high fracture risk and the result of treatment.
