Association of Rheumatoid Arthritis With Progression of Cognitive Impairment and Risk of Mortality in People With Dementia
We identified a worse cognitive function and an increased mortality risk in dementia patients with RA compared with non-RA. However, we lacked information on the duration of RA before the onset of dementia and on disease activity, which could influence our findings. Further studies are needed to validate these results in comparable populations.
