Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To assess the strength of the associations between HLA shared epitopes (SE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility, articular disease severity, and extra-articular features in Mediterranean European populations. METHODS: One hundred and seventy-four Greek RA patients and 103 controls were evaluated. Data were then included in a meta-analysis of 9 studies of Mediterranean European populations...
