What High RF Means

High RF: most commonly rheumatoid arthritis, but also seen in: Sjogren's syndrome, lupus, hepatitis C, TB, chronic infections. A positive RF alone does NOT confirm RA — clinical symptoms + Anti-CCP test are also needed.

What Low RF Means

Negative RF doesn't rule out RA — 20-30% of RA patients are 'seronegative' (negative RF but still have RA). Anti-CCP antibody is a more specific test for RA.
