 Association of PADI4 single nucleotide polymorphisms with satisfying ACR classification criteria for rheumatoid arthritis by five years, rheumatoid factor (RF) positivity at baseline, and anti-CCP antibody positivity at baseline

SNP alleleRA by 5 years (%)Non-RA by 5 years (%)RF+ at baseline (%)RF− at baseline (%)CCP+ at baseline (%)CCP− at baseline (%)
*The PADI4 susceptibility haplotype, as defined in the Japanese population, was referred to as 2 and all other haplotypes as 1.
CCP, cyclic citrullinated peptide; RA, rheumatoid arthritis; RF, rheumatoid factor; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism.
