Abstract excerpt

The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between the presence of the 'rheumatoid epitope', defined by a sequence motif in the HLA-DRB1 alleles, rheumatoid factor and disease severity in Northern Italian patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Twenty-nine DR4-positive and 57 DR4-negative RA patients were studied. Each DR4-positive patient was matched with two DR4-negative controls of similar disease...
