Sponsor: Satguru Partap Singh Hospitals
Conditions: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
Interventions: Protein Optimisation through Dietary Counselling and Supplementation
Countries: India
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if optimised protein intake improves household work capacity and overall functional status in women with rheumatoid arthritis. It will also assess the safety and tolerability of dietary protein supplementation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does optimised protein intake reduce household work limitations measured by the Household Work Limitations Questionnaire (HOWL-Q)? Does optimised protein intake improve overall functional disability measured by the Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI)? What side effects or tolerability issues do participants experience with dietary protein modification and supplementation? Researchers compared participants receiving structured dietary counselling and protein supplementation (targeting 1.0 g/kg/day) to their baseline protein intake to determine if the intervention improves functional outcomes in women with stable rheumatoid arthritis on disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs.
