Exercise as Medicine in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Effects on Function, Body Composition, and Cardiovascular Disease Risk

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterised by functional disability and inflammation. This review explores the beneficial effects of exercise on function and cardiovascular disease risk in RA and explores the possibility that some of these beneficial effects may be moderated via exercise-induced improvements in body composition.
