Abstrakt: Despite the coexistence of bronchiectasis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the poor prognosis associated with the combination of conditions, to our knowledge, no longitudinal studies that comprehensively evaluated whether patients with RA have a higher risk of bronchiectasis compared with those without RA have been published. Whether seropositivity is associated with an increased risk of bronchiectasis in RA is the subject of ongoing controversy.
