Alterations in skeletal muscle health and biomechanical properties in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis: an exploratory cross-sectional study

BackgroundSkeletal muscle disease in patients with early-stage rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is understudied. The objective of this study was to identify whether patients with early RA (symptoms <6 months) have impaired skeletal muscle health.MethodsParticipants with early RA (n = 10) and age-, s...
