Summary

This study investigates whether ginkgo biloba extract can improve outcomes for people with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis who are already on standard disease-modifying drugs. Participants take ginkgo biloba for 12 weeks, and researchers measure changes in inflammation markers like hsCRP and calprotectin, as well as joint pain and physical function. The goal is to see if this herbal supplement can help control the disease.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a natural supplement to help manage rheumatoid arthritis alongside standard medications.
What could go wrong
