Abstract
- Objectives: We aimed to identify determinants of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and global functioning and health (GH) in axial SpA (axSpA), peripheral SpA (pSpA) and (PsA).<br />Methods: The ASAS-perSpA study data were analysed. Models for the three patient groups were run separately to explore factors associated with HRQoL and GH, assessed by EQ-5D and ASAS-HI, respectively.<br />Results: The analyses included 4185 patients: 2719 with axSpA, 433 with pSpA, and 1033 with PsA.In axSpA, disease activity (β = -0.061), physical function (β = -0.041), female sex (β = -0.019) and fibromyalgia (FM) (β = -0.068) were associated with worse HRQoL; age (β = 0.001) and university education (β = 0.014) were associated with better HRQoL. In pSpA, disease activity (β = -0.04) and physical function (β = -0.054) were associated with worse HRQoL. In PsA, disease activity (β = -0.045), physical function (β = -0.053), axial disease (β = -0.041) and female sex (β = -0.028) were associated with worse HRQoL. In axSpA, disease activity (β = 0.889), physical function (β = 0.887), peripheral disease (β = 0.564), female sex (β = 0.812) and FM (β = 1.639) were associated with worse GH; age (β = -0.013) and university education (β = -0.274) were associated with better GH. In pSpA, physical function (β = 1.142) and female sex (β = 1.060) were associated with worse GH; university education (β = -0.611) was associated with better GH. In PsA, disease activity (β = 0.703), physical function (β = 1.025), axial involvement (β = 0.659), female sex (β = 0.924) and FM (β = 1.387) were associated with worse GH; age (β = -0.024) and university education (β = -0.856) were associated with better GH.<br />Conclusion: Disease activity and physical function are major HRQoL and GH determinants across SpA types, and clinical characteristics and sociodemographic factors play an important role, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach for individual patients.<br /> (© The Author(s) 2023.
