Remission in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Physician and Patient Perspectives
Journal of Rheumatology, 05/18/09
Wolfe F et al. - Physician and patient estimates of remission in RA are similar (34.8% to 30.9%), and agreement was 78.6% (kappa 0.53). Based on previous data and the observed presence of disease activity, this definition of remission appears to be a measure of minimal disease activity rather than true remission. The problem of remission rates will not be solved until a consensus definition that has relevance in research and the clinic is developed.
