Risk multiplication (1.5-fold selection): the EULAR task force recommendations are a 1.5 multiplier applied to all patients for two out of three criteria, a disease duration ≥10 years and seropositive result or evidence of extra-articular disease.
FRS, Framingham Risk Score; NCEP, National Cholesterol Education Program; SCORE (TC:HDL ratio): systematic coronary risk evaluation according to total cholesterol:high density lipoprotein ratio tables.
