Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis as one of the autoimmune diseases is more prevalent now than ever before. Being more common in women than men, RA has been focused by researchers to invent a therapeutic agent for effective clinical response. Various Diagnostic biomarkers are being used for early diagnosis of RA depending upon their selectivity and specificity. Certain indexes for RA disease activity evaluation are used for assessment of disease on a continuous scale. Disease activity Score combined with laboratory data result and imaging technologies makes the decision of treatment strategies easier than before. Traditionally, TNFi are the most used agents since a decade and first choice of treatment by clinicians, however, combination therapy with DMARD is used in inadequate responders. Despite all the advancements in treatment of RA and proved remission possibility using latest biological agents, studies are needed to ensure quick clinical outcomes and remission probability in larger fraction of people.
