FinalCriteria
TargetPopulationoftheCriteria

Two requirements:
(1) Patient with at least one joint with definite clinical
synovitis (swelling)
(2) Synovitis is not better explained by another
disease
Differential diagnoses differ in patients with different presentations.
If unclear about the relevant differentials, an expert rheumatologist
should be consulted.
