ARMAS RODRIGUEZ, Wendy Estefanía et al. Rheumatoid arthritis, diagnosis, evolution and treatment. Rev Cuba Reumatol [online]. 2019, vol.21, n.3  Epub 01-Dez-2019. ISSN 1817-5996.

Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common inflammatory disease in adults with a high prevalence in the general population, invoking for its diagnosis the presence of at least four criteria of those guided by the American College of Rheumatology, having a leading role in recent years the presence of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies, as well as imaging studies, which help the diagnosis of early rheumatoid arthritis in the course of the first two years of evolution and its appropriate therapeutic orientations, a fundamental aspect nowadays to avoid irreversible erosive lesions , which result in a marked commitment to the quality of life of patients who suffer from it, elements that we review in this opinion article.

Palavras-chave : rheumatoid arthritis; anti-citrullinated protein antibodies; early rheumatoid arthritis; diagnostic criteria.
