Risk Factors

Common Risk Factors

  • Common risk factors in the development of rheumatoid arthritis include:
    • 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:
    • Obesity and high consumption of red meat also seems to play a role in increased disease severity.[6] [7]
    • Increased alcohol intake.
