Key clinical point: Fibromyalgia and widespread pain were prevalent and associated with elevated disease activity in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA).
Major finding: Fibromyalgia and widespread pain were present in 11.1% and 20.6% of patients, respectively. The scores for Clinical Disease Activity in Psoriatic Arthritis were elevated in patients with vs without fibromyalgia (mean difference [Δ] 13.02; 95% CI 10.42-15.63) and in those with vs without widespread pain (Δ 11.94; 95% CI 9.96-13.92). Fibromyalgia was more prevalent in women (P < .001), patients with increased BMI (P = .002), patients diagnosed with spondyloarthritis (P = .005), and patients with a history of cardiovascular diseases (P = .004) and diabetes (P = .007).
Study details: This cross-sectional study included 1823 patients with PsA (age ≥ 18 years) from the CorEvitas US registry.
