Associations between soluble Mer and Tyro3 levels and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patient disease activity score based on erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) [28‐joint disease activity score (DAS28)‐ESR]. The correlation analyses between soluble Mer (sMer) / soluble Tyro3 (sTyro3) levels and DAS28‐ESR were performed by Spearman's correlation coefficient (a, b). sTyro3 levels in patients with DAS28‐ESR > 5·1 were higher than those of patients with DAS28‐ESR scores ≤ 5·1 (c), while no difference was indicated between two groups on sMer levels (d). The analyses were performed by Mann–Whitney U‐test, *P < 0·05; N.S. = not significant.
