NCT ID NCT06702839
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how a special exercise approach called BETY affects people with rheumatic diseases (like arthritis) who have chronic pain. Researchers reviewed past records of 300 participants to see if BETY improved their physical function, mood, and quality of life compared to a control group. The goal was to understand if this exercise method could be a helpful routine treatment for managing rheumatic conditions.
