Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune chronic inflammatory disease that affects about 1% of the population, and is five-fold more frequent in women. The main site of involvement occurs in the joints, although its damage also includes extra-articular actions such as reduction of skeletal muscle tissue, disabilities, and bone loss. Although the mechanisms have not been elucidated, thes…
