Answer 2

Answer :-

Basically, "Rheumatoid Arthritis" can be defined as an auto-immune disease in which the immune system of the body attacks it's own tissues.

Extra Information :-

• Rheumatoid arthritis is abbreviated as "RA".

• Rheumatoid arthritis is diagnosed by the presence of "Rheumatoid factor".

• The rheumatoid factor is a type of "Immunoglobulin M".

• Rheumatoid arthritis is characterised by inflammation of the synovial membrane which causes swelling, pain and even loss of function.

• The synovial produces an abnormal granulation tissue called "Pannus" which adheres to the surface of the articular cartilage and sometimes erodes the cartilage completely.
