Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The impact of the genetic risk for RA on resultant disease phenotype in RA is incompletely understood. Using individual genetic variants associated with RA and a polygenic score (PGS), we hypothesized that those with higher genetic risk for RA would demonstrate a more severe disease course. METHODS: We genotyped participants from the Veterans Affairs RA registry (VARA), a prospective cohort of RA. We...
