This is a prospective observational cohort study. Examinations and treatments will be performed within the scope of routine clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician, and no study-specific intervention will be conducted. Clinical information, laboratory findings, imaging findings, and stored residual serum samples will be collected longitudinally from individuals at high risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis to evaluate their association with the development of rheumatoid arthritis.
