Article Synopsis
- Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common chronic inflammatory condition affecting adults, with a study focusing on patients over 60 years old to analyze their clinical, biological, and treatment characteristics.
- The retrospective study involved 32 patients, predominantly female, with an average age of 66.6 years and an average symptom progression of 33.2 months before diagnosis, primarily affecting joints in the hands and shoulders.
- The treatment included oral corticosteroids and methotrexate, with some patients receiving biotherapy; however, managing RA in older adults poses challenges due to existing health conditions and potential under-treatment.*
