Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study includes RA patients in pregnancy, who are using different treatment regimens,including prednisone, hydroxychloroquine, and/or TNF inhibitors. The maternal disease activity, pregnancy outcomes, maternal and fetal safety are assessing during the trimester of pregnancy. The effects of different therapies and risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes will be analysis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To study the risk factors of poor pregnancy outcomes in RA patients, and evaluate impact of different therapies on the maternal and fetal health.

The follow-up study will be scheduled every 4 weeks from confirmed pregnancy until delivery, records the disease activity of RA, pregnancy outcome and safety with the help of the "smart disease management system (SSDM)" and face-to-face consultations.

The effects of different therapies on maternal and fetal will be valued
