Association between the inflammatory burden index and rheumatoid arthritis and its all-cause mortality: data from NHANES 1999–2018
Our study has demonstrated a positive correlation between the prevalence of RA and all-cause mortality with the IBI index. This suggests that lower levels of inflammation in the body are associated with a reduced risk of RA prevalence and all-cause mortality. Further prospective studies are required to explore the mechanisms involved.
