Abstract

The article demonstrates the effect of treatment with disease-modifying agents on the expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL in the synovial tissue from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. It correlates these changes with radiologic damage measured on sequential radiographs of the hands and feet.
