Epidemiology and outcomes of rheumatoid arthritis

Key Points

Rheumatoid arthritis prevalence is increasing globally, while mortality rates are decreasing over time.
A critical area of focus involves understanding the risk factors and the transition from pre-RA to RA.
Extra-articular involvement and its relationship with multimorbidity need further examination to improve patient outcomes.
Research aims to optimize care strategies and support for individuals affected by rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract

RA prevalence is rising globally, while mortality rates are declining. Continued investigation aimed at elucidating RA risk factors, the transition from pre-RA to RA, extra-articular involvement, and multimorbidity remains critical to optimize patient outcomes.
