Abstract：
This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to evaluate the remission rate of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in real-world studies and to summarize potential predictors of remission in RA. Studies reporting remission rate in patients with RA were searched from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Scopus databases. Two reviewers independently assessed all studies according to eligibility criteria and extracted data. Generally, observational studies reporting remission rate in adult (≥ 18 years) patients with RA were included. Quality assessments were performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Pooled analyses of remission rate were conducted using a random-effects model and data were analyzed in subgroups to identify potential source of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analyses were performed by serially excluding each study. Potential predictors of remission were summarized. Thirty-one studies with ~ 82,450 RA patients in total were included. Using the DAS28 remission criteria, the pooled 3-, 6-, 12-, and 24-month remission rates were 17.2%, 16.3%, 21.5%, and 23.5%, respectively. Subgroup analyses showed that 11.7% and 13.8% of TNFi inadequate responders reached remission after 6- and 12-month use of non-TNFi biologics. Predictors of remission included male, higher education level, and lower baseline disease activity, while initial use of corticosteroids was negative predictors of remission. Sustained remission was rare regardless of different criteria used. Remission was a reachable target in real-world studies, while attention should also be paid to achieve sustained remission.
