Summary
Studies have shown that people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have a higher rate of heart disease than people that do not have RA. we believe this is caused by the inflammation produced by RA.
Detailed description
Aim 1: We want to study people with RA to see if we can detect very early changes in their heart muscle and compare these results to people who do not have RA.
