Factor loadings presented (correlation between the observed score and the latent score). Cross-loadings were negligible (< 0.3) and not presented. The factor order is by % of variance explained. CRP: C-reactive protein; ESR: erythrocyte sedimentation rate; PaGH: patient global health assessment; PhGH: physician global health assessment; SJC28: 28 swollen joint count; TJC28: 28 tender joint count.
