Registry summary

The aim of the current study is to evaluate the effects of resveratrol on the clinical outcome(s) of patients with moderate rheumatoid arthritis.

Objectives :

  • To investigate the effects of Resveratrol on inflammation and oxidative stress by measuring:
  • Serum Sirtuin 1(SIRT1)
  • Serum Myeloperoxidase (MPO)
  • Serum C-reactive protein (CRP)
  • To investigate the effects of Resveratrol on disease activity by measuring the disease activity (DAS28 score).
  • To investigate the effect of Resveratrol on improving the quality of life using the Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability index (HAQ-DI).
  • To assess any adverse effects related to Resveratrol.

Patients:

Eligible patients (no=118) will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of two groups:

  • Control group: 59 patients will receive the standard treatment for management of RA for 3 months.
  • Resveratrol group: 59 patients will receive the standard treatment for management of RA in addition to Resveratrol 1 gm daily, (Organix Egypt) (given as one 1000 mg tablets once daily) for 3 months.
