Abstract
Trends in paediatric rheumatology referral times and disease activity indices over a ten-year period among children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: results from the childhood arthritis prospective study
Highlights
The medical management of children and adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) has advanced significantly over the past ten years
The Childhood Arthritis Prospective Study is a prospective inception cohort of children with new-onset inflammatory arthritis recruiting from seven UK paediatric rheumatology team (PRh) centres
