During April 2024 Clinical Knowledge Summaries were published or updated in the following areas.
- Axial spondyloarthritis (including ankylosing spondylitis)
- Cellulitis - acute
- Hypercholesterolaemia - familial
- Insomnia
- LUTS in men
- Tamoxifen - managing adverse effects
- Ulcerative colitis
All of the topics have been reviewed and updated with minor structural and layout changes. The Axial spondyloarthritis topic has been renamed from "Ankylosing spondylitis" in line with current terminology, recommendations have been updated in line with current evidence and a new Assessment section has been added. The Hypercholesterolaemia - familial topic has a new section describing important risk factors and the prescribing information now includes bempedoic acid and inclisiran. The Insomnia topic now incorporates NICE recommendations on the use of Sleepio and daridorexant in the management of insomnia.
Action: Clinicians who see patients with any of these conditions may find the new and updated information useful when reviewing current clinical practice.
