CRP and rheumatoid arthritis: The objective of our retrospective study was to determine if patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and RA would be predisposed to poor outcomes, including increased hospital LOS, mortality, ventilator use, time on a ventilator, ICU admission, time in ICU, or discharge to hospice compared to patients with only COVID-19 infection while controlling for age, sex, race, BMI, DM, maximum D-dimer lab value, maximum CRP lab value, and reported use of home medications.
