Epitope spreading of the anti-citrullinated protein antibody response occurs before disease onset and is associated with the disease course of early arthritis

TL;DR: Epitope spreading with an increase in the recognition of citrullinated antigens occurs before the onset of RA, and immunological differences in ACPA fine specificity between UA–UA patients and UA–RA patients are associated with the future disease course.

Protection against anti-citrullinated protein antibody-positive rheumatoid arthritis is predominantly associated with HLA-DRB1*1301: A meta-analysis of HLA-DRB1 associations with anti-citrullinated protein antibody-positive and anti-citrullinated protein antibody-negative rheumatoid arthritis in four European populations - Commentary

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a meta-analysis of 4 European populations to investigate which HLA-DRB1 alleles are associated with protection in anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA)-positive RA and ACPA-negative RA.

Repair of joint erosions in rheumatoid arthritis: prevalence and patient characteristics in a large inception cohort

TL;DR: Investigation of the frequency of repair and patients' characteristics associated with repair in an inception cohort of rheumatoid arthritis patients found repair occurred in 7.2% of the patients with RA, particularly in clinically inactive joints in patients with severe destructive disease.
