Overview
Risk Factors
Common Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of rheumatoid arthritis include:
- Family history of rheumatoid arthritis.
- Cigarette smoking is a strong risk factor for developing RA. The duration of smoking co-related strongly with increased risk of RA.[1]
- Gender - Women is higher risk as compared to men.[2]
- Race:
- Native American groups have higher prevalence rates.
- African american and Caribbean region have lower prevalence rates.
- More common in monozygotic twins and diazygotic twins.[3]
- Genetic:
- It is strongly associated with the inherited tissue type Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen HLA-DR4 (most specifically DR0401 and 0404), hence family history is an important risk factor.
- Occupational factors:
Less Common Risk Factors
- Less common risk factors in the development of rheumatoid arthritis include:
