That rheumatism is a disease of great social importance is recognized by all authors both in our country and in other countries. But no capitalist country has the favorable conditions which our Soviet Union has at its disposal to organize a comprehensive study of this issue. The importance of this issue is determined by the place of rheumatic diseases in the general morbidity of workers. Much attention is given by clinicians to the etiopathogenesis and clinic of rheumatic diseases. Not a few difficulties are experienced by the doctor in understanding the reaction of the body to this disease. Many authors point out that there is insufficient clarity in the clinic of rheumatic diseases, there is no unified classification of rheumatic diseases.
