Key clinical point: The prevalence for osteoporosis continues to remain high in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) despite significant advances in diagnostic methods, prevention, and treatment.
Major finding: Overall, osteoporosis was highly prevalent in patients with RA (prevalence, 27.6%; 95% CI, 23.9%-31.3%), with the prevalence being the highest in studies during 2011-2015 (36.2%; 95% CI, 24.5%-47.8%), followed by 2016-2021 (27.1%; 95% CI, 20.7%-33.4%), and before 2010 (21.6%; 95% CI, 15.8%-27.4%).
Study details: Findings are from a systematic review and meta-analysis of 57 studies including 227,812 patients with RA, of which 64,290 reported osteoporosis.
Disclosures: This study was funded by Arak University of Medical Sciences. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
