Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic disease affecting primarily the synovium, leading to joint damage and bone destruction(Gravallese E,2002). It is probably the most common autoimmune disease, It is three times more common in women compared to men and usually appears in middle age(poulsom and charles, 2016) .Early diagnosis of RA and its early treatment with disease-modifying anti rheumatic drugs lead to better control and less joint damage .therefore,It is very important to find an acceptable serological marker in order to make an early diagnosis and initiate early treatment to avoid complication and disability ( Orozco C,and Olsen,2006) Various serum biomarkers are used to diagnose RA, including many autoantibodies. However, only rheumatoid factor (RF) and anticyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies have wide acceptance (taylor et 2011).
Aim: Comparing the efficacy and safety of intra-articular injection of tocilizumab and compound betamethasone. Study design: A randomized, single-blind, parallel controlled and one center trial design. Sample size: 60 cases. Study content: Patients who meet inclusive criteria will be randomly divided into tocilizumab group and compound betamethasone group. In the baseline period, the investigators will collect patients' general information, disease information, disease activity score, laboratory results and images of articular ultrasound. After 4 weeks of injection, patients will be asked to come back, and their disease information, disease activity score, laboratory results as well as images of articular ultrasound will be collected. Finally, these data will be sorted and analyzed. Hypothesis: The efficacy and safety of intra-articular injection of tocilizumab is better than that of compound betamethasone.
Anxiety and depression are highly prevalent in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).This study is to investigate the effect of anxiety and depression on treatment response in people with RA using observational longitudinal study design.
The aim of the study is to determine the tolerance of apoptotic autologous cells injection in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis.
This research will evaluate a multifaceted patient-centered intervention in a sample of socioeconomically disadvantaged Hispanic adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that capitalizes on a partnership between the extended rheumatology healthcare team and each patient in order to promote understanding, uptake and adherence to the principles of treat-to-target strategy. The primary hypothesis of this study is that the addition of a multifaceted intervention incorporating integrated multidisciplinary rheumatologic care, nurse-directed self-management education and supportive follow-up, and technology-based at home RA symptom monitoring and reporting to clinical guideline-based care will increase RA remission rate at 6 months.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, multicentre global phase 3 clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of BOW015 (infliximab-EPIRUS) compared to Remicade in subjects with active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) despite Methotrexate (MTX) therapy.

The purpose of this study is to use abatacept as a clinical molecular probe to evaluate the effects of inhibiting costimulation on immune responses in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
