There have been some excellent links posted recently but unfortunately I never seem to be able to find them later! One particular one was a paper by Dasgupta et al. Does anyone have a repository of relevant links that can be accessed easily?

Not here no - which paper was it? i.e. what was it about?

It was a long paper about latest thoughts on both conditions by several (3?) authors including Dasgupta. Unfortunately I only skimmed it and decided to read it later but can't find it now.

What I do when I find a paper that looks promising, I 'lift' the link with a description, and post it back to myself, on my computer, in draft form - one *can end up with a total medley of fab 'drafts' that sit waiting ! Hope this helps for future papers, meanwhile hope you find the paper (which I think I missed seeing...?)

It's 2010 - nearly 8 years old so not as up-to-date as it might be.

Think there are updates available, but computer link problems - storms have hit services...big bore !

Pressed 'submit' too soon - telephone call. Now. Originally there were two papers, same authors. One dealt with PMR. T'other with GCA. The third, the link I put up, had combined the two into one paper. Now, on further checking to seek updates, did note that updates were available, but so far unable to access. Also, this / these papers are notable for continuous reference.

One paper I found excellent was the one put up yesterday (delve into my drafts) :-

"Thiss is a lengthy but thorough article on GCA. You’ll note that many of the studies shared on PMRGCAuk are cited.

"

The above one is lengthy - but well worth the read.
