TY  - JOUR
AB - The seronegative spondyloarthropathies, including psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS), are characterized by varied clinical symptoms, severity, and disease course [1], [2]. Diagnosis and monitoring can be challenging because there is no definitive laboratory biomarker for reliably measuring inflammation or other disease processes associated with spondyloarthropathies. Over time, many patients with PsA and AS eventually experience significant disability and impaired quality of life [1], [2]. This may be partially accounted for by delays in diagnosis and subsequent treatment [3], as well as the presence of comorbidities.In recent years, research efforts aimed at identifying risk factors for PsA, including clinical, imaging, genetic, and laboratory assessments, have yielded major advances. The Platform for the Exchange of Expertise and Research (PEER) was formed to facilitate the exchange of research insights, sharing of expertise, and discussion of unmet needs in rheumatology research.The objective of the current report is to provide an overview of the 2017 PEER meeting, which was held on May 19–20, 2017, in London, UK, and highlighted the most up-to-date research findings regarding PsA and AS pathophysiology, early detection, comorbidities, and treatment.
