- Original description
Our primary objective is to better understand the etiology and consequences of chronic paint by using an explorative approach to identify phenotypes and endotypes of patients with inflammatory joint diseases, with a special focus on central sensitization and cognitive functioning as a key element in chronic pain. We will also examine the risk factors and clinical impact of these factors on pain, disease activity and treatment effects in a longitudinal study of patients with inflammatory joint disesases.Read full original descriptionShow less
Advancing the Understanding of Pain Mechanisms in Inflammatory Arthritis Towards Precision Pain Management
Our primary objective is to better understand the etiology and consequences of chronic paint by using an explorative approach to identify phenotypes and endotypes of patients with inflammatory joint diseases, with a special focus on central sensitization and cognitive functioning as a key element in chronic pain. We will also examine the risk factors and clinical impact of these factors on pain, disease activity and treatment effects in a longitudinal study of patients with inflammatory joint disesases.
Inclusion: All patients who initiate or switch biological or targeted synthetic DMARDs.
Exclusion: None.
