Proteomic Approaches to Defining Remission and the Risk of Relapse in Rheumatoid Arthritis
ObjectivesPatients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) are increasingly achieving stable disease remission, yet the mechanisms that govern ongoing clinical disease and subsequent risk of future flare are not well understood. We sought to identify serum proteomic alterations that dictate clinically import...
