OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence of palindromic rheumatism (PR) compared to new-onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
METHODS
We reviewed 145 patients that had been newly diagnosed by a rheumatologist with either RA or PR between May 2004 and May 2006.
RESULTS
Of these 145 patients, 51 were diagnosed with PR and 94 with RA. There was a similar female predominance with both conditions. The average age at diagnosis of PR was 49 years as compared to 56 years for RA.
CONCLUSION
Palindromic rheumatism occurs more frequently than previously recognized.
目的

方法
我们回顾了2004年5月至2006年5月间由风湿病学家新诊断为RA或PR的145例患者。
结果
在这145例患者中，51例被诊断为PR，94例被诊断为RA。两种疾病均以女性为主。PR诊断时的平均年龄为49岁，而RA为56岁。
结论
回纹型风湿症的发生比之前认为的更频繁。
