Objective: The Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) Filter provides guidelines for the development and validation of outcome measures for use in clinical research. The "Truth" section of the OMERACT Filter requires that criteria be met to demonstrate that the outcome instrument meets the criteria for content, face, and construct validity.
Methods: Discussion groups critically reviewed a variety of ways in which case studies of current OMERACT Working Groups complied with the Truth component of the Filter and what issues remained to be resolved.

Objective: The Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) Filter provides guidelines for the development and validation of outcome measures for use in clinical research. The "Truth" section of the OMERACT Filter presupposes an explicit framework for identifying the relevant core outcomes that are universal to all studies of the effects of intervention effects. There is no published outline for instrument choice or development that is aimed at measuring outcome, was derived from broad consensus over its underlying philosophy, or includes a structured and documented critique.

Objective: At a previous Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) meeting, participants reflected on the underlying methods of patient-reported outcome (PRO) instrument development. The participants requested proposals for more explicit instrument development protocols that would contribute to an enhanced version of the "Truth" statement in the OMERACT Filter, a widely used guide for outcome validation. In the present OMERACT session, we explored to what extent these new Filter 2.

Objective: The Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) Filter provides a framework for the validation of outcome measures for use in rheumatology clinical research. However, imaging and biochemical measures may face additional validation challenges because of their technical nature. The Imaging and Soluble Biomarker Session at OMERACT 11 aimed to provide a guide for the iterative development of an imaging or biochemical measurement instrument so it can be used in therapeutic assessment.

Objective: The Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) initiative works to develop core sets of outcome measures for trials and observational studies in rheumatology. At the OMERACT 11 meeting, substantial time was devoted to discussing a conceptual framework and a proposal for a more explicit working process to develop what we now propose to term core outcome measurement sets, collectively termed "OMERACT Filter 2.0.

From Paris Descartes University, Rheumatology Department, Cochin Hospital, Paris, France; Rheumatology Department, AZ Groeninge, Kortrijk, Belgium; and the University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, and Atrium Medical Center, Heerlen, The Netherlands.
Objective: To assess the effects on bone mineral density (BMD) of prolonged anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA); to compare the BMD changes to those observed in SpA patients not treated with anti-TNF; and to identify the predictors of these changes.
Methods: Fifty-nine patients with SpA according to the European Spondylarthropathy Study Group criteria who were treated with anti-TNF therapy for at least 4 years were included. Thirty-four patients with SpA from an international longitudinal observational study (OASIS cohort) were used as a control group.

Objective: Evaluate golimumab in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and previous tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF) inhibitor use.
Methods: Patients (n=461) previously receiving ≥1 TNF inhibitor were randomised to subcutaneous injections of placebo, golimumab 50 mg or golimumab 100 mg q4 weeks. Primary endpoint (≥20% improvement in American College of Rheumatology (ACR20) criteria at week 14) findings have been reported for all patients in the trial.
Objective: Patients with Still's disease show a prominent acute phase reaction. Our hypothesis is that under these circumstances the iron uptake of ferritin will not keep pace with its synthesis, and is therefore not a valid reflection of the iron status in these patients.
Methods: Previously we developed a method to measure the iron content of ferritin; we investigated the usefulness of this method to establish the iron status of patients with anemia of inflammation.
