Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic disease that causes chronic synovial inflammation eventually leading
to joint destruction and disability [1]. Many studies have reported an increased risk of morbidity and mortality in patients with rheumatoid
arthritis (RA), largely attributable to cardiovascular (CV) events [1,2]. The contribution of traditional risk factors and RA disease
characteristics to this mortality has been uncertain, in particularly, given the recent appreciation of the important role of inflammatory
processes in the development and progression of atherosclerosis.
