Understanding Heart Rhythm Risks in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at what makes people with rheumatoid arthritis more likely to develop an irregular heartbeat. It may help doctors identify who is at higher risk and potentially prevent serious heart problems in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must not have any other autoimmune disease.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking at early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and heart health. It compares people newly diagnosed with RA (within the last 6 months) to healthy people of similar age and sex. The goal is to see if there are early signs of hardening of the arteries in people with RA.
This study looks at how oxidative stress (an imbalance of harmful molecules in the body) relates to cardiovascular risk in people with rheumatoid arthritis. It aims to see if these factors are linked, which could help in better managing heart health for RA patients.
This study looks at whether calcium in the heart arteries and a blood test (troponin) can help predict heart disease risk in people with rheumatoid arthritis. It may help doctors better prevent heart attacks and strokes.
This study looks at how daily movement patterns (like sitting, standing, and walking) relate to the buildup of plaque in arteries (atherosclerosis) in people with rheumatoid arthritis. It aims to understand if certain activity levels can lower heart risks.
This study follows people who are at high risk for developing rheumatoid arthritis, as well as first-degree relatives of RA patients and people with very early untreated RA. It aims to learn more about the disease so doctors can better predict and prevent it.
This trial looks at cardiovascular risk factors in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), comparing those who test positive or negative for certain blood markers. It aims to understand how heart health may differ between these groups.
