Discordance between pain and inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McWilliams, D. F. (2018, May). Discordance between pain and inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis. Paper presented at British Society for Rheumatology Annual Conference 2018, Liverpool. UK

Recent research interest has focused on the continuing problem of pain in RA. The long term prognosis for pain could be improved, even when inflammation is being suppressed. This talk will describe the progression of pain, and examine how factors oth... Read More about Discordance between pain and inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis.
