High resolution computed tomography thorax findings in rheumatoid arthritis and its correlation with spirometry indices – a cross-sectional study
Abnormal HRCT findings and spirometry patterns correlate significantly with longer disease duration in RA. Early detection and management of pulmonary complications in RA may improve patient outcomes, particularly in those with long-standing disease. Furthermore, longitudinal studies are required to fully comprehend ILD progression in RA and its impact on patient prognosis.
