Researchers want to understand how your daily habits—including exercise, sleep, and time spent sitting—affect your heart health when you have rheumatoid arthritis. The study will track these behaviors and your cardiovascular health over 12 months to see which movement patterns may protect your heart or increase risk.
People with rheumatoid arthritis face a higher risk of heart disease than the general population, but doctors don't fully understand why or what daily habits might help. This study aims to identify modifiable lifestyle factors that could improve heart health in this group.

You will visit the research center twice: at the start and after 12 months. At each visit, you'll wear a small accelerometer (movement tracker) for several days to record your physical activity, sitting time, and sleep patterns. You'll also complete health questionnaires and undergo heart health measurements. The researchers will analyze how changes in your daily movement relate to changes in your cardiovascular health.
