Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Understanding

Rheumatoid Arthritis Overview

RA is a chronic, inflammatory autoimmune disease that leads to progressive and destructive polyarthritis and is characterized by chronic pain and joint destruction that usually progress from distal to more proximal joints. RA is the result of an immune response in which the body's immune system attacks its own healthy cells and the specific causes of RA are still unknown.

RA is more common in women and about 75% of RA patients are women. Around 1 to 3% of women may get rheumatoid arthritis in their lifetime. The disease most often begins between the ages of 30 and 50. However, RA can start at any age.

RA is a chronic disease that causes joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and decreased movement of the joints. Small joints in the hands and feet are most commonly affected. Sometimes RA can affect other organs such as the eyes, skin, or lungs.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Diagnosis

Typically, RA is diagnosed by a combination of the patient's symptoms, results of the doctor´s examination, assessment of risk factors, family history, a joint assessment by ultrasound sonography, and assessment of laboratory markers such as elevated levels of CRP and ESR in serum and detection of RA-specific autoantibodies. 

Rheumatoid Arthritis Epidemiology

The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by total prevalent cases of RA, total diagnosed prevalent cases of RA, gender-specific prevalent cases of RA, age-specific prevalent cases of RA, severity-specific prevalent cases of RA, patients on targeted therapies of RA, line-wise treated cases of RA in the 7MM market covering the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2021 to 2034.
