To ascertain the frequency of fibromyalgia (FM) in Behçet's syndrome (BS) and to evaluate the relationship of FM to Behçet's disease activity.
Self-questionnaires were completed by 108 patients with BS. Each patient was evaluated by an observer blinded to diagnosis; evaluation included assessment of tender points by palpation. Another observer determined the disease activity of patients at that time.
Ten of 108 patients (9.2%) met the American College of Rheumatology criteria for FM. Nine of the patients who met the criteria for FM were women. In contrast to patients without FM, patients with FM had mild to moderate disease activity in which musculoskeletal complaints were common.
There is a trend for an increased frequency of FM in female BS patients.
确定白塞病(BS)中纤维肌痛(FM)的发生率,并评估FM与白塞病疾病活动度之间的关系。
108例白塞病患者完成了自我问卷调查。由对诊断不知情的观察者对每位患者进行评估;评估包括通过触诊来评定压痛点。另一名观察者确定患者当时的疾病活动度。
108例患者中有10例(9.2%)符合美国风湿病学会纤维肌痛标准。符合纤维肌痛标准的患者中有9例为女性。与无纤维肌痛的患者相比,有纤维肌痛的患者疾病活动度为轻至中度,其中肌肉骨骼症状较为常见。
女性白塞病患者中纤维肌痛的发生率有上升趋势。
