dc.descriptionPatientswithrheumatoidarthritis(RA)haveacceleratedatherosclerosis,withatwo-foldincreased risk in cardiovascular events [1]. However, traditional cardiovascular risk factors and inflammatory markers do not fully explain this increased risk [2–5]. Therefore, efforts to identify additional risk factors and improve our ability to predict cardiovascular risk in this patient population are important. Rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis are chronic inflammatory conditions and both have significant genetic susceptibility. Because heritability accounts for up to 60% of the risk in RA and 30%–60% of the risk in cardiovascular disease [6] there has been increasing interest in attempting to identify genetic markers of atherosclerosis in RA.en
