* (A) The current study containing mainly DAS28-ESR scores ≤ 3.2 (92% on enrollment) was joined with the study published in 2023 ref. [34] containing all >3.2 (100% on enrollment) to encompass all visits as a group to cover whole ranges of rheumatoid arthritis disease activity in terms of DAS28-ESR scores. All odds ratios # vs. the reference in each category gave p < 0.05 in Part (A). Inside parentheses are visit numbers. & (B) The data in 2020 ref. [15] were mixed with (A) to calculate data shown in (B). All odds ratios # vs. the reference in each category provided p < 0.001 in Part (B). Both DAS28-MCP-1 < 2.2 and DAS28-CRP < 2.5 vs. SDAI ≤ 3.3 for fulfillment of 2005 modified ARA remission offered p = 0.006 and 0.013, respectively.
