Overview

There is no established system for the classification of [disease name].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method] into [number] subtypes/groups: [group1], [group2], [group3], and [group4].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified into [large number > 6] subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3]. [Disease name] may be classified into several subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3].

OR

Based on the duration of symptoms, [disease name] may be classified as either acute or chronic.

OR

If the staging system involves specific and characteristic findings and features: According to the [staging system + reference], there are [number] stages of [malignancy name] based on the [finding1], [finding2], and [finding3]. Each stage is assigned a [letter/number1] and a [letter/number2] that designate the [feature1] and [feature2].

OR

The staging of [malignancy name] is based on the [staging system].

OR

There is no established system for the staging of [malignancy name].

Classification

There is no established system for the classification of rheumatoid arthritis Depending on the presentation of rheumatoid arthritis, these are classified as follows:

  • Typical classic rheumatoid arthritis:

The 2010 American College of Rheumatology classification criteria for diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis:[1]

The 2010 new criteria rates on a scale from 0-10 points are assigned in four separate domains of signs and symptoms:

1) Joint involvement

2) Serology

3) Duration of symptoms

4) Acute phase reactants

Patients are called as definite RA if they score 6 or more points according to the following criteria

The 2010 American College of Rheumatology classification criteria for rheumatoid arthritis.
Domains Description Number Score
Joint Involvement Median-large joint*
2-10 1
1-3 2
Small joints@ 4-10 3
>10~ 5
Serology No positive for either RF or anti-CCP 0
At least one of these test positive at the high titer 2
At least one of these test positive at low titer 3
Duration of synovitis +/> six weeks 1
Acute phase reactants Neither CRP or ESR is abnormal 0
Abnormal CRP or ESR 1
  • Distal interphalangeal,1st carpometacarpal and 1st tarsometatarsal joints are excluded from the assessment.

*Shoulder, elbow, knee, ankle

@ Small joints refer to metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, second through 5th metatarsophalangeal, thumb interphalangeal and wrist joints

~ In this category, at least one of the involved joints must be a small joint; the other joints can include any combination of large additional small joint joins as well as other such as temporomandibular, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular
