Health-related quality of life among spondyloarthritis and chronic low back pain patients: results from a nationwide population-based survey

Helena Santos et al.

Summary: The study found that both spondyloarthritis and chronic low back pain have similar impacts on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), including mental, physical, and social domains. Patients with spondyloarthritis and chronic low back pain reported significantly lower HRQoL compared to those without rheumatic diseases. Modifiable factors such as multimorbidity, active disease, obesity, and regular physical exercise were associated with HRQoL in these conditions.
