For each patient, a comprehensive assessment of disease activity, physical function, and disease effect was carried out. The presence of comorbid fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) was evaluated. Acute-phase reactants were also recorded. The neuropathic pain features were investigated through the PainDETECT Questionnaire (PDQ). A logistic regression analysis was therefore conducted using the PDQ as the dependent variable.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title><jats:p>The final evaluation included 118 patients. A comorbid FMS was detectable in 30 of the 118 patients with PsA (25.4%). Probable characteristics of neuropathic pain (PDQ \u2265 19) were found in 30 (25.4%) patients overall, ambiguous (PDQ &gt; 12 and &lt; 19) in 21 (17.8%) patients, and unlikely (PDQ \u2264 12) in 67 (56.8%) patients. Using logistic regression analysis, the only independent variable among those investigated that could explain the neuropathic pain features was the presence of a comorbid FMS (p = 0.0127). Excluding patients with comorbid FMS, an association with disability (measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire\u2013Disability Index) emerges (p = 0.0489). In patients with PsA and comorbid FMS, PDQ scores were significantly higher than in patients without comorbid FMS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion.<\/jats:title><jats:p>Neuropathic pain features are common in patients with PsA, and the presence of pain sensitization (comorbid FMS) seems to be its main predictor.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.190906","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,2]],"date-time":"2019-12-02T11:45:00Z","timestamp":1575287100000},"page":"1198-1203","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["The Neuropathic Pain Features in Psoriatic Arthritis: A Cross-sectional Evaluation of Prevalence and Associated Factors"],"prefix":"10.3899","volume":"47","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0906-4647","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marco","family":"Di Carlo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2438-8583","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pietro","family":"Muto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9867-2360","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Devis","family":"Benfaremo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9132-7401","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michele Maria","family":"Luchetti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9328-3075","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fabiola","family":"Atzeni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3794-6831","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fausto","family":"Salaffi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2262","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024112122583784000_47.8.1198.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.berh.2015.04.016"},{"key":"2024112122583784000_47.8.1198.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.181099"},{"key":"2024112122583784000_47.8.1198.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/j.pain.0000000000000160"},{"key":"2024112122583784000_47.8.1198.4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1933","DOI":"10.1111\/1756-185X.13110","article-title":"Performances of Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) and Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) appear to be better than the gold standard Disease Assessment Score (DAS-28-CRP) to assess rheumatoid arthritis patients","volume":"21","author":"Dhaon","year":"2018","journal-title":"Int J Rheum Dis"},{"key":"2024112122583784000_47.8.1198.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.110279"},{"issue":"Suppl 93","key":"2024112122583784000_47.8.1198.6","first-page":"S48","article-title":"Disease activity and response assessment in psoriatic arthritis using the Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA).
