Key clinical point: Poor sleep quality was a very common phenomenon in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and associated with increased disease activity and higher levels of pain, fatigue, anxiety, and depression.
Major finding: A majority (63%) of patients with PsA experienced poor sleep quality, with factors like higher Disease Activity Index for PsA scores, pain, fatigue, anxiety, and depression (P < .01 for all) associated with poorer sleep quality. Patients with vs without fibromyalgia also reported poorer sleep quality (P < .001).
Study details: Findings are from a single-center cross-sectional study that included 247 patients with PsA.
Disclosures: This study received medical writing/editorial assistance from the Spanish Foundation of Rheumatology. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
