Out of all these, majority were in low disease<br>activity (LDA) 72 (38%), remission 62 (32%), moderate 42 (22%) and high disease activity 16 (8%). Mean T-score of all measures showed variations of scores as disease progresses. For all measures, mild change was noted between low disease activity and moderate disease activity whereas high difference was seen in remission and high disease activity. Highest correlations were seen among similar constructs of physical health, mental health, and social health. Fatigue was strongly correlated with social role and social activity.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> There was a considerable impact of rheumatoid arthritis on physical, social and mental health<br>calculated with patient reported outcomes measurement information system-29 (PROMIS-29).</p>}, number={1}, journal={Pakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal}, author={Lashari, Naveed Aslam and Khan, Saira E.A and Batool, Shabnam and Khan, Asadullah and din, Zia u}, year={2021}, month={Feb.}, pages={172–78} }
