    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by symmetric inflammation of synovial joints, leading to progressive erosion of cartilage and bone. The impact of the disease is wide, not only resulting in decreased quality of life (QoL), but also a loss of productivity and an increase in healthcare costs The aim of this thesis was to study the impact of treatment with tumour necrosis factor- alpha inhibitors (TNF-inhibitors) on patients with RA in terms of risk for adverse events, impact on work-force ability and the possibility to predict treatment outcome from early patient reported data.
