Abstract:
Evaluation of polyarthritis in 110 patients in civilian and armed force life revealed 89 with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In the Indian population, RA seems milder and confined to the joints. A substantial number of male patients appeared to share features with spondylarthritis, often in HLA-B27 positive individuals.
