Background
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder characterised by synovial hypertrophy, proliferation, and pannus formation encroaching on articular structures resulting in uncontrolled spread of joint destruction. Survivin is an anti-apoptotic protein that plays an important role in tissue growth and tumour d...

Objective
To investigate the prevalence of poly‐refractory rheumatoid arthritis (RA) defined as failure of all biological (b)/targeted synthetic (ts)‐disease‐modifying drugs (DMARDs). To further investigate whether patients with persistent inflammatory refractory RA (PIRRA) and noninflammatory refractory RA (NIRRA), determined by objective ultrasou...
Elderly-onset rheumatoid arthritis (EORA) is a distinct clinical entity defined as the onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in individuals aged over 60 years. EORA presents unique clinical features, including a more equitable distribution of sexes, a potential predilection for male involvement, a higher incidence of acute onset characterized by const...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by synovitis, bone and cartilage destruction, and increased fracture risk with bone loss. Although disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have dramatically improved clinical outcomes, these therapies are not universally effective in all patients due to the hetero...
This study assesses the accuracy of neutrophil activation markers, including neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and calprotectin, as biomarkers of disease activity in patients with established rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We also analyse the relationship between NETs and various types of therapies as well as their association with autoimmunity.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, incurable, multisystem, inflammatory disease characterized by synovitis and extra-articular features. Although several advanced therapies targeting inflammatory mechanisms underlying the disease are available, no advanced therapy is universally effective. Therefore, a ceiling of treatment response is currentl...
