It is well established that in auto-immune diseases there is a
chronic systemic inflammatory process that predominantly affects
the joints. This has a significant negative impact on the quality
of life of patients and considerable socio-economic costs. In
addition, in recent years a decline in life expectancy has been
observed, either due to the complications of the disease itself or
as a consequence of the treatments used. The most important
predictors of mortality are the presence of a rheumatoid factor,
the results of the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) and
extra-articular manifestations. This book examines the prognostic
factors and the causes of death, using rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) as models of auto-immune
diseases.
