Poor survival in rheumatoid arthritis associated with bronchiectasis: a family-based cohort study.

<h4>Background</h4>Diffuse bronchiectasis (DB) may occur in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) mutations predispose RA patients to DB, but the prognosis of RA-associated DB (RA-DB) is unclear.<h4>Methods</h4>We report long-te...
