Abstract
In a commercial claims database analysis, <0.5% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease or rheumatoid arthritis developed an IFI within one year of initiating TNF-alpha therapy. Histoplasmosis was the most common IFI type. Overall IFI incidence varied based on region, underlying conditions, and use of certain immunosuppressive medications.
