Table 3 Associations between genetic risk scores and TNFi treatment response (achieving good/moderate EULAR response vs no) in overall RA, as well as in ACPA-positive RA and ACPA-negative RA

From: A genetic risk score composed of rheumatoid arthritis risk alleles, HLA-DRB1 haplotypes, and response to TNFi therapy – results from a Swedish cohort study
