Validation of a Genetic Risk Score Combined with Clinical Variables for Predicting Pulmonary Fibrosis in early Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a severe extra‐articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The study aimed to externally validate a genetic risk score (GRS) and a combined risk score for predicting the risk of RA‐associated PF in an independent cohort of early‐RA patients. Methods This study utilized an inception cohort of 1118 patients
