PY - 2015 DA - 2015/08/31 TI - Disease flares in rheumatoid arthritis are associated with joint damage progression and disability: 10-year results from the BeSt study JO - Arthritis Research & Therapy SP - 232 VL - 17 IS - 1 AB - Flares in patients with rheumatoid arthritis are suggested to sometimes spontaneously resolve.
