Improvement in work place and household productivity for patients with early rheumatoid arthritis treated with adalimumab plus methotrexate: Work outcomes and their correlations with clinical and radiographic measures from a randomized controlled trial companion study

Abstract

Compared with methotrexate monotherapy, combination therapy was associated with more positive work outcomes: less absenteeism, less presenteeism, and greater likelihood of gaining/retaining employment. Radiographic progression at baseline was predictive of the ability to retain or gain employment.
