Advanced machine learning for predicting individual risk of flares in rheumatoid arthritis patients tapering biologic drugs

Abstract Background Biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) can be tapered in some rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients in sustained remission. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of building a model to estimate the individual flare probability in RA patients ta...
