DAS28 is measure of disease activity in participants. DAS28-4 (CRP): calculated from SJC, TJC, CRP(mg/L) and PGA (participant rated disease activity on VAS from 0 to 100 mm; high score=worse health). Total score range of DAS28-4 (CRP): 0 to 9.4(0=no activity; 9.4=extreme disease activity), higher score=more disease activity. DAS28-4(CRP) \<2.6=remission, \<3.2=low disease activity, \>=3.2-5.1=moderate disease activity and \>5.1=high disease activity. HAQ-DI assess degree of difficulty a participant experienced (past week) in 8 domain of daily activities: dressing and grooming, arising, eating, walking, hygiene, reach, grip and other activities. Each item scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 to 3(0=no difficulty; 3=extreme difficulty). Overall score: sum of domain scores/number of domains answered. Total possible score range (0=least difficulty; 3=extreme difficulty); high scores=more difficulty in performing daily living activities.

PGA was assessed on a 10 mm VAS ranging from 0 (very well) to 10 (very poor), where higher scores indicate worse health condition. Physician global assessment was recorded on a 10 mm VAS ranging from 0 (very well) to 10 (very poor), where higher scores indicated more disease activity. DAS28 calculated from number of swollen joints and painful joints using the 28 joints count, CRP (mg/dL) and PGA using a 10 mm-VAS from 0 (very well) to 10 (very poor), where higher scores indicate worse health condition.
