  1. Adjusted risk ratios were estimated using a modified Poisson regression model, which included the treatment group (tofacitinib vs baricitinib) and confounders as sex, age, disease duration, MTX use, oral steroid use, the number of previous biological/target synthetic DMARD use, DAS28-ESR, SDAI, mHAQ, presence of RF, and ACPA
  2. DAS disease activity score, ESR erythrocyte sedimentation rate, LDA low disease activity, SDAI Simplified Disease Activity Index, CDAI Clinical Disease Activity Index, CI confidence interval
