Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic multisystem disease of unknown etiology with a prevalence of 1% in the population. Rheumatoid nodules have been known as one of the characteristics of RA. The prevalence of rheumatoid nodules in patients with RA has been studied versus age, sex, ESR, rheumaoid factor, platelet count arid intensiy of disease.During this two year long study, 1500 patients with RA who had presented to Isfahan's outpatient rheumatology clinic were clinically examined.The prevalece of rheumaoid nodules in patients with RA was 2.53%, wich is markedly different from a prevalece of 20% in other studies.Rheumatoid nodules have a greater prevalencce in male patients (3.6% in males - 2.2% in females). However, the prevalence of RA in women was 3.5 times greater than men (78.2%were female-21.8%were male). Rheumatoid nodules had the greatest prevalence in the age group 41-50 years. Also RA had the highest prevalence in the same age groups (41-50 years).We did not notice a clear relation between rheumatoid factor, ESR and platelet count in the two age groups, with or without nodules. By contrast RA had a greater severity in patients with rheumatoid nodules.It can be concluded that RA in the Iranian society has a better prognosis compared to other societies.
