Microscopic hematuria is common manifestation in patients with mild rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It has not been extensively addressed, to our knowledge, by scholars. In this review, we discussed in detail the epidemiological aspect of this problem from the clinical point of view. We reviewed many articles from different electronic databases on the web such as PubMed, LILACS, CINAHL, and PSYCH INFO to get up with a narrative review. Twenty-eight studies entailed the issue regarding etiology, pathology, clinical picture, prognosis complications, and treatment. This clinical sign must be addressed by clinical staff treating patients with RA. Also, further studies should be done to discover the hidden areas in this topic.
显微镜下血尿是轻度类风湿关节炎(RA)患者的常见表现。据我们所知,学者们对此并未进行广泛探讨。在这篇综述中,我们从临床角度详细讨论了这个问题的流行病学方面。我们查阅了来自不同电子数据库(如 PubMed、LILACS、CINAHL 和 PSYCH INFO)的许多文章,进行了叙述性综述。有 28 项研究涉及病因、病理学、临床表现、预后并发症和治疗等问题。处理 RA 患者的临床医务人员必须注意这一临床征象。此外,还应开展进一步的研究,以发现该主题的隐藏领域。
