The Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA) held its annual meeting in 2020 in an online format due to travel restrictions during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; caused by SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. The virtual meeting was attended by 351 rheumatologists, dermatologists, representatives of biopharmaceutical companies, and patient research partners. Similar to previous years, GRAPPA's annual meeting focused on the 3 overlapping missions of education, research, and clinical care of psoriatic disease. Trainee sessions this year included the annual trainee symposium and a grant-writing workshop. Plenary sessions included updates on COVID-19 and psoriatic disease from multispecialty and patient perspectives, and updates on pustular psoriasis and associated musculoskeletal manifestations. Progress on research and updates were presented for the following groups: Collaborative Research Network, Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) Psoriatic Arthritis Working Group, International Dermatology Outcome Measures, Composite Measures, Education Committee, and Treatment Guidelines. New this year were 3 concurrent workshops on ultrasound assessment of joints and entheses, magnetic resonance imaging of psoriatic arthritis, and pustular psoriasis efficacy endpoints; 6 "Meet the Expert" sessions; and facilitated "poster tours." In our prologue, we introduce the papers that summarize this meeting.
由于 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19;由 SARS-CoV-2 引起)大流行期间的旅行限制,银屑病和银屑病关节炎研究与评估小组(GRAPPA)于 2020 年以在线形式举行了年度会议。此次虚拟会议有 351 名风湿病学家、皮肤科医生、生物制药公司代表和患者研究合作伙伴参加。与往年一样,GRAPPA 的年度会议重点关注银屑病疾病的教育、研究和临床护理这 3 个重叠使命。今年的学员课程包括年度学员研讨会和一个论文写作研讨会。全体会议包括多学科和患者视角的 COVID-19 和银屑病疾病更新,以及脓疱性银屑病和相关肌肉骨骼表现的更新。以下小组介绍了研究进展和更新:合作研究网络、风湿病学结局测量(OMERACT)银屑病关节炎工作组、国际皮肤病学结局测量、综合测量、教育委员会和治疗指南。今年新增了 3 个关于关节和附着点超声评估、银屑病关节炎磁共振成像和脓疱性银屑病疗效终点的同期研讨会;6 个“专家见面会”;以及促进“海报巡回”。在我们的前言中,我们介绍了总结这次会议的论文。
