CRP and rheumatoid arthritis: Notably, the correlations between changes (from baseline to the week 12 visit) in ThermoDAI and ThermoDAI-CRP versus changes in SJC28 were found to be stronger than those between PGA and PGA + CRP versus SJC28, indicating their utility to detect changes in joint inflammation and disease activity over time when physical examination is not possible, even at the patient’s home, enabling remote assessment of RA patients.
