Table 1. Descriptive data and measures reflecting disease activity, traditional cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, subclinical atherosclerosis, and physical activity in 121 patients with early or long-standing rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Table 2. Linear regression models among 121 patients with early or long-standing rheumatoid arthritis, with (log) total physical activity (mean accelerometer counts per minute) as the dependent variable.

Table 3. Multiple linear regression model explaining 39% of the variation in (log) total physical activity (mean accelerometer counts per minute) in 118 patients with early or long-standing rheumatoid arthritis.

Table 4. Linear regression coefficients for variables in relation to (log) moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (% of wear time) as the dependent variable in 121 patients with early or long-standing rheumatoid arthritis.
