Popis: The aim of this study is to establish a scientific comparative analysis between seronegative and seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with regard to some clinical characteristics. The studied group consisted of RA seronegative patients with titters lower then 1:64 defined by Rose-Waaler test, while the control group consisted of RA seropositive patients with titters of 1:64 or higher. Examinees all belonged to the 2nd and 3rd functional classes according to ARA criteria, were between 25-60 years of age (Xb=49.96), with disease duration between 1-27 years (Xbox=6.41). In the disease onset most frequently affected joints were metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint of the hands, almost equally represented with regard to sero-status and sex. During the examination seropositive patients showed a higher presence of inflamation of peripheral joints of hand and foot, but only the presence of PIP of the hands was statistically significant (χ2=15.63, p
U našem istraživanju uspoređena je skupina seronegativnog i seropozitivnog reumatoidnog artritisa (RA) u odnosu na neke kliničke karakteristike. Ispitivana skupina je obuhvatila seronegativne bolesnike s titrom manjim od 1:64 određenim pomoću Waaler-Roseova testa, dok su kontrolnu činili seropozitivni bolesnici s titrom 1:64 ili višim. Svi ispitanici su pripadali II. i III. funkcionalnom razredu (ARA), bili životne dobi u rasponu 25-60 godina (Xb=49,96) s trajanjem bolesti 1-27 godina (Xb=6,41). U početku bolesti, najčešće zahvaćeni zglobovi su bili metakarpofalangealni (MCP) i proksimalni interfalangealni (PIP) zglobovi ruku, približno jednako zahvaćeni u odnosu na serološki status i spol. Tokom ispitivanja, seropozitivni bolesnici imali su znatno zahvaćenije periferne zglobove ruku i nogu, ali statistički značajno samo u slučaju rasprostranjenosti PIP ruku (χ2=15,63 p
