title: [CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF BIOMARKERS OF OSTEOCHONDRAL LESIONS IN EARLY RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS].
abstract: The aim of the research was to study biomarkers of osteochondral lesions on early stages of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The data showed the prognostic value of indicators of the erosive and destructive changes of joints in early and in the advanced stage of RA. Indicators that determine how directly, inflammatory process activity and markers associated with the speed and staging damage of articular surfaces is analyzed. That can adequately justify individualized clinical strategy in patients with early RA.
