Summary

This study looks at how fear of movement (kinesiophobia) affects daily function in people with rheumatoid arthritis. Researchers will compare 200 RA patients with 200 healthy volunteers to understand links between fear, pain, fatigue, mood, and muscle loss. The goal is to find non-inflammatory factors that limit mobility and guide better rehabilitation.
