National Study of the Levels of Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Physical Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis

7 Replies

It seems quite timely having just launched our "Love Your Heart" online programme on Cardio Vascular risk to be asked to help this PhD student from Queen Mary's University London in their studies on the subject. Here's a message from the lead investigator.

Did you know that having rheumatoid arthritis increases your cardiovascular mortality by up to 50% but that physical activity can reduce this risk and is also beneficial for rheumatoid arthritis?

Help us by taking part in this national questionnaire study to find the relationship between rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular risk factors and your physical activity levels and perceptions. qmul.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/rh...

You can help make a difference by directing the future of rheumatoid arthritis management and helping reduce cardiovascular mortality in rheumatoid arthritis - Every response matters!

To thank you for your time, you will be able to receive the results and the project report of this study when they are completed. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the research team at: ha14327@qmul.ac.uk
