Abstract
This randomized controlled trial evaluated the efficacy of *reclarit*, a cognitive-behavioral digital therapeutic, on psychosocial outcomes in adult rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with impaired health-related quality of life. Participants were randomized to *reclarit* plus treatment as usual (TAU) or TAU plus educational materials. *reclarit* significantly improved SF-36 mental component summary (MCS) scores compared to the control group, with sustained improvements at 6 months. Depression, anxiety, fatigue, and social/work functioning also improved significantly. In conclusion, *reclarit* provides effective psychological support for RA patients.
