Treatment of early Rheumatoid Arthritis with minocycline or placebo. Results of a Randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial
Open accessAbstract
Objective. To determine if minocycline is an effective therapy for seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) when used within the first year of disease. Methods. The Rheumatoid Arthritis Investigational Network enrolled 46 patients with RA of <1 year duration into a 6‐month study of minocycline (100 mg twice daily) versus placebo. All patients were rheumatoid factor positive. The primary end point of the study was successful completion of 6 months of treatment with no drug toxicity while maintaining 50% improvement in composite symptoms of arthritis. Results. Eighteen of the 46 patients who were enrolled met 50% improvement criteria at 3 months, and maintained at least a 50% improvement for 6 months with no significant drug toxicity. Among them were 15 of the 23 patients (65%) treated with minocycline and 3 of 23 patients (13%) treated with placebo (P < 0.001). Conclusion. In patients with early seropositive RA, therapy with minocycline is superior to placebo.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
