A and B Mean mHAQ† and Days Lost from Work due to RA‡ among RA Patients Achieving New Onset Consistent Remission, New Onset Inconsistent Remission, and New Onset Low Disease Activity

† The consistent remission, inconsistent remission, and LDA subpopulations were defined based upon the disease activity status of 3 consecutive CORRONA visits, the first of which was when patients experienced new onset remission or new onset low disease activity. The results presented here are the mHAQ scores for the next 3 visits. Differences in the mean mHAQ were significantly different between the groups at each of the three time points shown (p <0.001 for each).

‡ The consistent remission, inconsistent remission, and LDA subpopulations were defined based upon the disease activity status of 3 consecutive CORRONA visits, the first of which was when patients experienced new onset remission or new onset low disease activity.

*The only significant differences observed were at visit 3 comparing the LDA and the other two populations (p < 0.001 for both comparisons). No other differences at any other time point were significantly different.

mHAQ = Modified Health Assessment Questionnaire; LDA = Low disease activity; N = number of patients.
