Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is a type of arthritis that occurs in children younger than 16 years old.
JRA is the most common type of childhood arthritis (1).
JRA is an autoimmune disorder, meaning that the immune system turns against the body and starts to attack healthy tissues.
There are three types of JRA: pauciarticular, polyarticular, and systemic.
About 300,000 children in North America are affected by JRA or other rheumatoid conditions (2).
JRA can cause eye inflammation, such as iritis.
JRA is also called juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
