The 4-h of biomarkers in arthritis: A lot of help, occasional harm, some hype, increasing hope

Abstract

(Gilles Boire): It was both a pleasure and an honor to present the 2019 Dunlop-Dottridge Lecture. My co-author and I will now discuss benefits and pitfalls of biomarkers developed through emerging techniques, evaluated through the experiential perspective of a seasoned clinician, as they apply to the quest for biomarker identification in rheumatic diseases.
