Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that primarily affects the small joints of the hands and feet, characterized by pain, inflammation, and joint damage. In this context, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful to identify and monitor joint/tendon inflammation and the evolution of joint damage, playing a key role in treatment response evaluation, in addition to clinical measurements. Various methods to quantify joint inflammation and damage with MRI in RA have been developed, such as RA-MRI Score (RAMRIS), Early RA-MRI Score (ERAMRS), and Simplified RA-MRI Score (SAMIS). RAMRIS, introduced in 2002, offers an objective means to assess inflammation and damage via MRI in RA trials, encompassing findings such as synovitis, bone erosion, and edema/osteitis. Recently, an updated RAMRIS version was developed, which also includes the evaluation of joint space narrowing and tenosynovitis. The RAMRIS-5, which is a condensed RAMSIS version focusing on five hand joints only, has been proven to be a valuable resource for the semi-quantitative evaluation of RA joint damage, both in early and established disease. This narrative literature review will provide an overview of the MRI scoring systems that have been developed for the assessment of joint inflammation and structural damage in RA patients.
