3 II, 5. 6. 3| Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory condition
4 II, 5. 6. 3| classified as already having RA at presentation is lower,
5 II, 5. 6. 3| mortality associated with RA (EULAR Online Course, 2008).~ ~
6 II, 5. 6. 3| the annual incidence of RA range from 4–13 per 100,
7 II, 5. 6. 3| Estimates of the prevalence of RA range from 1-6 per 1000
8 II, 5. 6. 3| 0) .~ ~The incidence of RA in women appears to have
9 II, 5. 6. 3| recent prevalence figures for RA from the UK which show that,
10 II, 5. 6. 3| incidence and prevalence of RA generally rises with increasing
11 II, 5. 6. 3| gradient in the prevalence of RA going from South (lowest)
12 II, 5. 6. 3| example the prevalence of RA in men in Finland is reported
13 II, 5. 6. 3| the population at risk~ ~RA tends to run in families.
14 II, 5. 6. 3| components of seropositive RA has been mapped to a short
15 II, 5. 6. 3| appears to be the marker for RA disease severity rather
16 II, 5. 6. 3| environmental triggers for RA. Infection may play a part
17 II, 5. 6. 3| female sex hormones and RA. The onset of RA is rare
18 II, 5. 6. 3| hormones and RA. The onset of RA is rare during pregnancy
19 II, 5. 6. 3| rare during pregnancy and RA is more common in nulliparous
20 II, 5. 6. 3| development of the severe RA. Again the frequency of
21 II, 5. 6. 3| influence the epidemiology of RA. Smoking and obesity are
22 II, 5. 6. 3| are also risk factors for RA (Symmons and Harrison, 2000).~ ~
23 II, 5. 6. 3| disability in patients with early RA that have been identified
24 II, 5. 6. 3| change in patients with early RA that have been identified
25 II, 5. 6. 3| et al, 2001).~ ~Impact~ ~RA can be a severely disabling
26 II, 5. 6. 3| examined the severity of RA in a population study using
27 II, 5. 6. 3| moderate disability due to RA and less than 10% had severe
28 II, 5. 6. 3| Although there is no cure for RA, long term disability can
29 II, 5. 6. 3| burden of disability due to RA might be further reduced
30 II, 5. 6. 3| Co-morbidities and mortality~ ~RA is associated to reduced
31 II, 5. 6. 3| is related to severity of RA as expressed by functional
32 II, 5. 6. 3| twice as high in people with RA compared to controls (Birnbaum
33 II, 5. 6. 3| incidence and prevalence of RA are difficult to predict.
