Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) frequently affects the forefoot, causing pain and deformity even in remission. Subclinical inflammation may persist and vary with disease duration. This study aimed to compare clinical, ultrasound, and radiographic features of the forefoot in RA remission with metatarsalgia according to disease duration (< 10 vs. ≥ 10 years).
