From: Presence of hepatitis B virus in synovium and its clinical significance in rheumatoid arthritis
One-year radiographic changes of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with and without chronic hepatitis B virus infection (CHB). Comparison of cumulative probability of ∆mTSS (a), ∆JE subscore (b), and ∆JSN subscore (c) during 1-year follow-up between patients with RA with and without CHB. Cumulative probability distribution of radiographic change in mTSS from baseline to month 12 demonstrated that a significantly higher percentage of patients with CHB displayed 1-year radiographic progression. *p < 0.05. JE Joint erosion; JSN Joint space narrowing; mTSS Modified total Sharp score
