Specific genetic markers, such as HLA (human leukocyte antigen) genes, have been associated with an increased risk of developing the disease. The HLA-DRB1 gene, for example, is linked to rheumatoid arthritis in adults and similar associations have been observed in juvenile arthritis, suggesting a genetic overlap between these conditions.
Systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA), also known as Still disease, Still's disease, and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, is a subtype of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) that is distinguished by arthritis, a characteristic erythematous skin rash, and remitting fever. [5]

Women are 2–3 times more susceptible than men. The prevalence of rheumatoid lung disease in patients with RA depends on the method used for diagnosis: chest X rays (5%), high resolution CT scans (10–40%).
