Rheumatoid arthritis: diagnosis and management

Vikas Majithia et al. Am J Med. 2007 Nov.

Abstract

Accurate diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis may be difficult early in its course and demands high clinical suspicion, astute examination, and appropriate investigations. Early use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and biologics has improved outcomes but requires close monitoring of disease course and adverse events.
