Objective.描述自我报告的身体活动和身体健康，并确定身体活动和一般健康感知的相关性。从298例类风湿关节炎（RA）患者中收集了自我报告的体力活动、身体素质、活动表现和疾病活动的数据。我们的样本中有47%报告了不符合公共卫生建议的体育活动行为。大多数患者下肢肌肉功能（72%）、握力（94%）、关节运动（94%）和功能平衡（68%）下降。自我报告的体力活动与其他变量之间的相关性r（s）= 0.25或更小。疼痛和活动表现解释了一般健康感知的变化（总校正R-2 = 0.65）。我们的研究结果表明，有一个案例的建议和支持健康的体力活动行为的人与类风湿关节炎。
Objective. To describe self-reported physical activity and physical fitness and to identify correlates of physical activity and general health perception.Methods. Data on self-reported physical activity, physical fitness, activity performance, and disease activity were collected from a sample of 298 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Results. Forty-seven percent of our sample reported physical activity behaviors that did not comply with public health recommendations. A majority of the patients had decreased lower-limb muscle function (72%), grip force (94%), joint motion (94%), and functional balance (68%). Correlations between self-reported physical activity and other variables were r(s) = 0.25 or less. Variation in general health perception was explained (total adjusted R-2 = 0.65) by pain and activity performance.Conclusion. Our findings indicate that there is a case for recommendations on and support for healthy physical activity behaviors among people with RA.
