Overview
Risk Factors
- Cigarette smoking is a strong risk factor for developing RA. The duration of smoking and not the number of packs of cigarettes smoked daily co-related strongly with increased risk of RA.[1]
- Gender
- The lifetime risk of RA in adults is 3.6 % for women and 1.7% for men.[2]
- Race
- Some Native American groups have higher prevalence rates (5-6%) and black persons from the Caribbean region have lower prevalence rates. First-degree relatives prevalence rate is 2-3% and disease genetic concordance in monozygotic twins is approximately 12-15% compared to 3.5% in Dizygotic twins.[3]
- 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.[4]
- Occupational risks
- Other factors
