    Author: Doskaliuk B, Zimba O, Yatsyshyn R, Kovalenko V.
    Journal: Rheumatol Int; 2020 Feb; 40(2):175-182. PubMed ID: 31898762.
    Abstract:
    Rheumatology in Ukraine is based on established research and clinical infrastructure that enable the integration with regional and global societies. This article overviews current state of Ukrainian rheumatology, important steps toward expanding clinical settings, and opportunities for strengthening cooperation of local rheumatologists and patients with rheumatic diseases with related international societies. The main achievements and some challenges encountered by the Association of Rheumatologists of Ukraine are outlined. The Association supports continuing medical education of local specialists and explores options for advancing research and publishing in rheumatology. One of the main challenges still remains the creation of registries of patients with rheumatic diseases and expansion of activities of public societies with interest in combating rheumatic diseases. The issue of inadequate access to immunobiological therapies is also highlighted.
