## Abstract ## Objective To study the frequency of allele A of polymorphism PD‐1.3 of the __PDCD1__ gene in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its subsets, based on the presence of rheumatoid factor (RF) and the shared epitope (SE) alleles. ## Methods A total of 1,175 patients with RA a

## Abstract ## Objective To determine whether the tumor necrosis factor α (__TNFA__) –308 guanine‐to‐adenosine polymorphism and/or the shared epitope (SE) is associated with radiographic damage in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). ## Methods The cohort consisted of 189 patients with
## Objective Several rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility variants map close to genes involved in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathway, prompting the investigation of RA susceptibility variants in studies of predictors of response to TNF blockade. Based on a previously reported ass
