Abstract |
Five patients with active seronegative, rheumatoid arthritis, HLA-DR3 negative, received inadvertently 250 to 500 mg of aurothioglucose instead of their usual weekly dose, during standard remission-inducing chrysotherapy. Subsequently a rapid and sustained clinical remission appeared in all five patients.
