Table 2 shows that the two new RA remission definitions (28 tender joint count (TJC28), 28 swollen joint count (SJC28), C-reactive protein (CRP) and patient global assessment (PtGA) ≤ 1, and simple disease activity index (SDAI) ≤ 3.3) performed among the best of the candidate remission definitions in predicting good outcomes for radiographic and HAQ stability during the one-year follow-up (in both the positive likelihood ratio and P-value). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and rheumatoid arthritis.
