The index is calculated with the following formula: DAS28 = (0.56 × √(TJC28)) + (0.28 × √(SJC28)) + (0.7 × log(ESR)) + (0.014 × GH), where TJC28 = tender joint count and SJC28 = swollen joint count, each on 28 joints. GH = a patient's global assessment of disease activity in the previous 24 hours on a 100 mm visual analog scale (left end = no disease activity \\[symptom-free and no arthritis symptoms\\], right end = maximum disease activity \\[maximum arthritis disease activity\\]). When ESR equaled 0 mm/hr, it was set to 1 mm/hr. The DAS28 scale ranges from 0 to 10, where higher scores represent higher disease activity. Low disease activity was defined as a DAS28 score ≤ 3.2. DAS28 remission was defined as a DAS28 score \\< 2.6.
