Abstract

AIM: ) patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and healthy persons. PATIENTS AND METHODS: subsets were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: patients and controls. CONCLUSION: RA patients could cause down-regulation of antiviral clearance mechanisms and lead to activation of persistent human parvovirus B19 infection in patients with RA.
