Summary

This study looks at two blood markers (MMP7 and MMP9) to see if they can help detect lung disease in people with rheumatoid arthritis. Researchers will compare three groups: RA patients with lung disease, RA patients without lung disease, and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find a simple screening tool for early detection of lung problems in RA.
