Purpose Of Review: To highlight advancements in managing traditional and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) specific risk factors and the impact of RA treatments on cardiovascular outcomes.
Recent Findings: Advancements in rheumatoid arthritis management have paralleled declining trends in cardiovascular disease risks. Biomarkers like CRP, Lipoprotein(a), Apolipoprotein B 100, and imaging tools such as coronary artery calcium scoring enhance cardiovascular risk stratification, particularly in intermediate-risk RA patients.
