cause rheumatoid arthritis

Apart from rheumatoid arthritis, what are the auto immune connective tissue disease, and are they common?
also – if you hv time, I asked this question earlier, if you want to have a crack at any of these:)
If anyone knows the below answers, it would be much appreciated!
(ps- i study RA a bit, so dont really need overview/web site referral, just these spec questions thankyou)
1) What are the biological agents used to treat RA(Rheumatoid Arthritis)?
2) RA causes anaemia of chronic disease – what does this blood picture look like?
3) Late surgery for RA may mean joint replacement/etc – what is the early options for surgery in RA?
4) Whats the role in splinting for RA?
Scleroderma is the only other one I know and it is very uncommon and occurs mostly in women.
Sorry I can’t help you all that well :S
Best of luck!
