Associations of obesity with modifiable risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
(2009)
Objectives: To assess the association of body mass index (BMI) with modifiable cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: BMI, disease activity, selected CVD risk factors ...
Underweight and obese states both associate with worse disease activity and physical function in patients with established rheumatoid arthritis
(2009)
