Socioeconomic impact of treatment with biological disease–modifying antirheumatic drugs in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritisObjectives We evaluate the socioeconomic impact of treatment with biological and targeted synthetic disease–modifying antirheumatic drugs in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Methods We analysed data retrospectively from the prospective observational CorEvitas RA Japan Registry (March 2016–February 2020). Patients were categorised into paid workers (PWs) and home workers (HWs) and further based on drug classes. We assessed medication persistence, treatment outcomes, health care resource utilisation, and socioeconomic impact over 12 months, including direct (drugs and health care resource utilisation) and indirect (loss of productivity) costs. Results Overall, 187 PWs and 114 HWs were identified. Over 12 months, medication persistence was high, treatment outcomes improved, and outpatient visits reduced in both groups. Following treatment initiation, direct costs increased, whereas indirect (loss of productivity) costs decreased in both groups. The unadjusted socioeconomic ...

Does socioeconomic status affect outcomes in early inflammatory arthritis? Data from a canadian multisite suspected rheumatoid arthritis inception cohort2015 •
To assess the effect of socioeconomic status (SES) on outcomes in patients with early inflammatory arthritis, using data from the Canadian Early Arthritis Cohort (CATCH) study. In an incident cohort, 2023 patients were recruited, and allocated to low SES or high SES groups based on education and income. Outcomes at baseline and 12 months were analyzed in relation to SES including the 28-joint Disease Activity Score (DAS28), Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI), pain, patient's global assessment scale (PtGA), the Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), and the SF12-v2 Health Survey, using the ANOVA, chi-squared test, and regression analyses. The CATCH population had 43% with high school education or less and 37% in the low-income group (< 50,000 Can$ per annum household income). The low-education group had higher DAS28 at baseline (p = 0.045), becoming nonsignificant at 12 months and lower physical component score on SF12-v2 at baseline (p = 0.022). Pati...

Real - rheumatoid arthritis in real life - study cohort: a sociodemographic profile of rheumatoid arthritis in BrazilBackground In Brazil, socioeconomic differences in the incidence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been demonstrated, which are important in the formulation of hypotheses regarding the association between environmental factors, lifestyle and the risk of disease development. This study examines how the socioeconomic condition of the patient with RA in Brazil, assessed according to social class, educational level, employment situation and use of caregivers, affects the times between the beginning of symptoms and diagnosis and the beginning of the use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, as well as the presence of erosive disease and functional status. Methods This work is part of a multicentric study called REAL - Rheumatoid Arthritis in Real Life in Brazil, which is a prospective observational cohort study. Results As described in the REAL study, we included a total of 1115 patients. It was noted that patients with an educational classification of up to second grade incomplete p...
