Rheumatic and non-rheumatics symptoms, 60 months after disease onset. Recovered (n = 107) and affected (n = 62) patients were compared using the Fisher’s exact test, with Bonferroni multiple post hoc analysis. The horizontal axis shows the rheumatic and non-rheumatic symptoms. Upper extremities refers to the shoulders, elbows, hands, wrists, and fingers; Lower extremities refers to the hips, knees, ankles, feet, and toes. The proportion of symptomatic patients reporting ongoing symptoms at the time of interview are shown in the vertical axis. *Significant two-sided P-value (P ≤ .001)
