Large Scale Metabolic Profiling identifies Novel Steroids linked to Rheumatoid Arthritis

Abstract Recent metabolomics studies of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) reported few metabolites that were associated with the disease, either due to small cohort sizes or limited coverage of metabolic pathways. Our objective is to identify metabolites associated with RA and its cofounders using a new unt...
