Few data are available on the role of emotional distress as a possible mediator of the relationship between coping strategies and the Patient Global Assessment (PGA). This study aims to investigate, in a large cohort of patients affected by Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), the relationship between specific copying strategies and PGA, and the role of emotional distress as a mediator.

This study aims to investigate, in a large cohort of patients affected by Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), the relationship between specific copying strategies and PGA, and the role of emotional distress as a mediator.
