In terms of the relationship between synovial inflammation and radiographic changes, including both joint damage repair and progression, 1 in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), pre-existing joint damage and persistent synovitis may promote joint destruction, while in the absence of synovitis, damaged joints may heal. 2 3 Although presentation of radiographic results using cumulative probability plots has substantially improved understanding of clinical trial data, 4 the effects of treatments on radiographic progression and improvement (regression) in individual RA patients has not yet been fully explained.In the JESMR study, 5 6 151 active RA patients unresponsive to treatment with methotrexate (MTX) were randomised into 1 of 2 treatment groups: etanercept (ETN) 50 mg/week with 6–8 mg/week of MTX (the E+ M group), or ETN alone (the E
