Study Evaluating the Clinical and Therapeutic Management of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Spain

This is an epidemiological, multicenter, retrospective study to analyze the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in usual clinical practice in Spain. Two groups of patients will be analyzed: individuals who have had RA for two years or less (the "early RA" group) and individuals who have had RA for more than 2 years and who currently meet the ACR criteria for RA (the "established RA" group).
