First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how getting older affects disease activity, memory, and physical function in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared to those without RA. Researchers will follow 840 adults aged 55-85, half with RA and half without, using questionnaires and physical tests. The goal is to create age-specific reference charts to help doctors better interpret test results in older adults.
