Most African-American patients with rheumatoid arthritis do not have the rheumatoid antigenic determinant (epitope)

Annals of internal medicine - 1 Aug 1995

McDaniel D O, Alarcón G S, Pratt P W, Reveille J D

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relation between the presence of the "rheumatoid epitope," defined by a sequence motif in the HLA-DRB1 alleles, and disease severity in African-American patients with rheumatoid arthritis. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Rheumatology outpatient clinics at two university medical centers. PATIENTS: 86 African-American patients with rheumatoid arthritis (66 seropositive and 20...
