  1. The relationship between shared epitope (SE) positivity and DAS28-ESR remission was analyzed using a conditional logistic regression model adjusted for age, sex, RA disease duration, biologic-naïve, ACPA titer, ΔDAS28ESR HAQ-DI, and PS at baseline
  2. ACPA anticitrullinated peptide antibody, ΔDAS28-ESR, delta DSA28-ESR, indicating the magnitude of changes from baseline to week 4 in DAS28-ESR; DAS28-ESR, Disease Activity Score in 28 joints using the erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
