Rheumatoid Arthritis from Easy to Complex Disease: From the “2022 GISEA International Symposium”

Abstract

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a systemic disease with many different clinical phenotypes. RA could be classified according to disease duration, seropositivity for rheumatoid factor (RF) and/or anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA), joint subtype, clinical behaviourbehavior and many other subgroups. In this review, we summarize and discuss the multifaceted aspects of RA, focusing on the relationship between autoimmunity status and clinical outcome, achievement of remission and influence on treatment response, from the 2022 International GISEA/OEG Symposium.
