Abstract
Chronic pain and inflammation are common features of rheumatic conditions such as Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) and Axial Spondyloarthritis (axSpA), often needing prolonged medication treatment for effective management. Maintaining drug retention is essential for both achieving disease control and improving patients' quality of life. This study investigates the influence of pain catastrophizing, a psychological response to pain, on the drug retention rates of PsA and axSpA patients. A two-year prospective multicenter observational study involved 135 PsA and 71 axSpA patients. Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) was employed to assess pain catastrophizing. Univariable and multivariable regression analyses were utilized to identify factors associated with drug retention. In the PsA group, patients early discontinuing therapy showed higher baseline disease activity as well as higher incidence of comorbid fibromyalgia. Notably, pain catastrophizing, specifically the domains of Helplessness, Magnification, and Rumination, were significantly elevated in PsA patients who interrupted the treatment. Multivariable analysis confirmed pain catastrophizing as an independent predictor of drug suspension within two years. In axSpA, drug discontinuation was associated with female gender, shorter disease duration, higher baseline disease activity as well as elevated levels of pain catastrophizing. Univariable analysis supported the role of pain catastrophizing, including its domains, as predictors of treatment interruption. However, limited events in axSpA patients precluded a multivariate analysis. This prospective study emphasizes the impact of pain catastrophizing on drug retention in patients with PsA and axSpA.
期刊介绍:
Established in 1999, Arthritis Research and Therapy is an international, open access, peer-reviewed journal, publishing original articles in the area of musculoskeletal research and therapy as well as, reviews, commentaries and reports. A major focus of the journal is on the immunologic processes leading to inflammation, damage and repair as they relate to autoimmune rheumatic and musculoskeletal conditions, and which inform the translation of this knowledge into advances in clinical care. Original basic, translational and clinical research is considered for publication along with results of early and late phase therapeutic trials, especially as they pertain to the underpinning science that informs clinical observations in interventional studies.
