We know depression, anxiety are issues for many RA pts. Are we making the diagnosis more?
Olmsted County data:
depression similar over time
anxiety 3x more common in 2005-2014 vs 1985-1994 (adj age/sex +/- others)
How do we address this?

Sometimes we guess how RA pts will be, before they come in.
machine learning to predict RA dx activity:
RISE registry (n=39,155)
inputs: prev CDAI, demo, smoking/obesity, SES
v good performance
Past performance does predict future outcomes, sometimes!
