The immune system defends the body against disease-causing microorganisms, but immune deficiency diseases can weaken its ability to fight invaders, making the body more susceptible to infections. When the immune system reacts to an unknown trigger, it may produce antibodies that attack the body's own tissues instead of combating infections.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease caused by the presence of the rheumatoid factor (RF), an autoantibody generated by the immune system. RF testing, often used in conjunction with other tests, helps diagnose rheumatoid arthritis. This chronic condition damages joints, causing pain, swelling, and stiffness, with potential effects on organs and other symptoms. While the RF test assists in evaluating the severity of rheumatoid arthritis and its potential impact on organs, it alone cannot diagnose specific health problems.

If you're experiencing symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis in the wrists, hands, and feet, your healthcare provider might recommend an RF test. These symptoms typically affect both sides of the body's corresponding joints intermittently and include joint pain, tenderness, swelling, warmth, stiffness lasting over 30 minutes, fatigue, occasional low fevers, and loss of appetite.

An RF test may also be recommended if you're undergoing diagnostic tests for conditions leading to elevated rheumatoid factor levels, such as autoimmune disorders (e.g., Sjögren syndrome, lupus, scleroderma, juvenile idiopathic arthritis), chronic infections (e.g., hepatitis C, tuberculosis, endocarditis), and certain cancers, including leukaemia.
