Prevalence and validity of ACR/EULAR remission in four European early rheumatoid arthritis cohorts.

CONCLUSIONS: In clinical practice, a minority of patients with early RA achieves remission in the first 6 months of treatment. Remission at 6 months is predictive for good HAQ outcome between year 1 and 2 after inclusion, but not radiographic stability. PMID: 29533752 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
