AB  - We read the article entitled "The Impact of Rheumatoid Arthritis on First Nations and How We Can Work With Communities to Prevent It" by Hani El-Gabalawy1 with great interest. This paper discusses the high prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) among First Nations communities in North America, as well as the adverse results, such as early mortality.
