Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a major health problem in Korea. To explore the effects of regular exercise on pain, fatigue, and disability, a descriptive study was conducted in 435 Korean patients with RA. Exercisers were defined as those who are currently exercising more than 3 times a week, for at least 20 minutes, and for more than 6-consecutive months after being diagnosed with RA. The primary finding was that exercisers had significantly less fatigue and disability compared with nonexercisers. Results suggest that regular exercise has advantages for patients with RA to decrease fatigue and disability.

This study examined if health-related quality of life is different based upon the type of physical activity performed by 1,266 community-dwelling adults in urban area of Korea. Physical activity was categorized into (a) work, (b) leisure (non-sport), and (c) sports activity. The results indicated that only leisure and sports activity were positively correlated with health-related quality of life. Therefore, it is recommended that leisure and sports activity must be encouraged, especially to people who do not think that they need any leisure or sports activity because they are very active physically at work.
