range of autoimmune disorders. Among the studied drugs is what's called anti-TNF agents, or anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha agents. This category includes adalimumab (Humira), etanercept (Enbrel) and infliximab (Remicade). Five additional biologics will be studied.

The analysis will include patients who live in rural areas, and those who've been diagnosed with more than one autoimmune illness. Data will come from more than 100,000 biologics patients in the period 1998 to 2007.

The biologics study will include researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Kaiser Permanente's Division of Research in California, Oregon Health and Science University in Portland, the University of Massachusetts Medical Center in Worcester, the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and Vanderbilt University in Nashville.
