“…Lupus and systemic sclerosis have associated skin findings; polymyalgia rheumatica and fibromyalgia present with myofascial pain. Septic arthritis is most often monoarticular, caused by Gram-positive cocci, and occurs in older adults with underlying health issues 9,10. Gonococcal joint disease presents as a monoarticular arthritis in young healthy adults 9,10.…”

“…Patients with hepatitis C with cryoglobulinemia may present with positive rheumatoid factor; therefore, consider potential hepatitis C risk factors. Patients with tickborne illnesses, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, or Lyme disease can present with joint pain, but frequently demonstrate a characteristic rash, fever, and history of tick bite 9,10. In patients with an oligo- or monoarthritic presentation, the diagnosis would be more likely due to crystalline arthropathies (such as gout or pseudogout), septic arthritis, or spondyloarthropathies associated with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 9…”

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, progressive, infl ammatory condition that affects about 1% of the world's population. The multifactorial nature of RA has created continuous research discoveries leading to improved identifi cation of specifi c pathways for the pathogenesis of RA. Improved understanding of the pathways has allowed the development of new targeted drugs. Clinicians must understand the most common pathways for pathogenesis of RA, proper diagnostic techniques, and the appropriate management of this disease given the many possible options at their disposal.
