Data represent the proportions of RA patients who sustained clinical remission according to each criterion during follow-up period. Complete sustained remission was defined as maintain rate of 100%. Nearly sustained remission was defined as maintain rate of 50% or more. Incomplete sustained remission was defined as maintain rate of less than 50%. None remission was defined as maintain rate of 0%. Boolean-based is one of the ACR/EULAR remission criteria
