The survey included questions on physical function, pain, fatigue, self-reported disease activity, physical activity level, health-related quality of life, empowerment, comorbidities, and antirheumatic treatment. The patients were stratified based on physical function according to the Health Assessment Questionnaire (median value as cut off) into groups with worse vs. better physical function and further dichotomized to whether or not they met the World Health Organisation recommended level of health-enhancing physical activity (\u2265\u2009150\u00a0min\/week).

Younger age, non-obesity, less pain, less fatigue, and lower disease activity were associated with health-enhancing physical activity, irrespective of physical function level.
