title: Early oligoarthritis.
abstract: Oligoarthritis is a common condition, with a variable outcome, affecting a predominantly young population; when treated conventionally, oligoarthritis has a high morbidity. The variability of outcome has limited the development of studies evaluating therapies such as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in recent onset disease. Oligoarthritis is an important disease that warrants much greater study.
