Methotrexate therapy may prevent the onset of uveitis in juvenile idiopathic arthritis

Abstract

Early MTX therapy may prevent the onset of uveitis in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Because our study may be affected by confounding by indication, the potential of MTX to reduce the incidence of ocular disease should be investigated in a randomized controlled trial.
