Summary

In this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of the DASH diet model on the treatment of patients with seropositive rheumatoid arthritis, by evaluating its potential impact on inflammatory markers, disease activity scores, patients' functional status in daily life, and quality of life.

"This study is being conducted as part of a doctoral dissertation, and due to insufficient initial awareness regarding the requirement for prior registration, the registration process was completed after data collection had already begun. However, data collection is still ongoing, and the study has not yet been completed. We remain committed to full compliance with clinical trial reporting standards and transparency."
