Research Notes on Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis Risk Factors
Determining the risk factors of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis has been difficult because the exact cause of the disease is still unknown. There has been research that suggests that juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is genetic.1 Children with the genetic profile that researchers feel may be linked to juvenile rheumatoid arthritis do not always develop juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.1
Fast Facts:
- Approximately 50,000 children may develop juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.2
- Family history does not increase the risk of developing juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.1
- Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis usually appears between ages six months to sixteen years.3
