Summary

This study tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation (subthreshold stimulation) can reduce fatigue, improve leg muscle function, and lower inflammation in people with rheumatoid arthritis. 84 adults aged 30-55 with RA for at least 5 years will be randomly assigned to receive either the real stimulation or a sham (fake) treatment. The goal is to see if this non-invasive approach can ease symptoms and improve daily function.
