The independent associations of miRNA-146a and miRNA-223 with RA were identified by binary logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate their predictive values for RA.Results: MiRNA-146a and miRNA-223 expression levels in both synovial tissues and serums were statistically higher in cases than in controls, and their expression levels in serums were not statistically different from those in synovial tissues in both cases and controls. The expression levels of miRNA-146a and miRNA-223 in synovial tissues were independently associated with RA, as well as the expression levels of miRNA-146a and miRNA-223 in serums. The area under curve (AUC) of combination of miRNA-146a and miRNA-223 in synovial tissues for the prediction of RA was 0.910 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.863â 0.962], and the AUC of combination of miRNA-146a and miRNA-223 in serums was 0.904 (95% CI: 0.851â 0.957). Their difference was not sta
