    DAS28 is a measure of disease activity in participants with rheumatoid arthritis based on a 28-joint assessment.

Total DAS28-4 (CRP) score range: 0 to 9.4, higher score indicated more disease activity. DAS28-4 (CRP) <= 3.2 indicates low disease activity and > 3.2 to <=5.1 indicates moderate disease activity, >5.1 indicates high disease activity, and DAS28-4 (CRP) < 2.6 indicates remission.

There were total of 30 items distributed in these 8 domains. Each item was scored on a 4-point scale from 0 to 3: 0= no difficulty; 1= some difficulty; 2= much difficulty; 3= unable to do. Overall score was computed as the sum of domain scores and divided by the number of domains answered. Total possible score range 0 (least difficulty) and 3 (extreme difficulty), where higher scores indicate more difficulty while performing daily living activities.
