The features of the synovium in early rheumatoid arthritis according to the 2010 ACR/EULAR classification criteria

It has been shown in early arthritis cohorts that the 2010 ACR/EULAR criteria for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) enable an earlier diagnosis, perhaps at the cost of a somewhat more heterogeneous patient population.

We describe the features of synovial inflammation in RA patients classified according to these new criteria. At baseline, synovial tissue biopsy samples were obtained from disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD)-naïve early RA patients (clinical signs and symptoms
