Assessment of kinesiophobia, fatigue severity, disease activity, and mood in women with fibromyalgia syndrome: a cross-sectional controlled study
Key Points
Kinesiophobia significantly impacts mood among women with fibromyalgia syndrome, highlighting emotional challenges.
Fatigue severity measured at 6.5 on a scale of 10 illustrates high levels reported by participants, indicating the burden of fibromyalgia.
Cross-sectional controlled study design enables the evaluation of kinesiophobia and its relation to fatigue and mood in the specific population.
Findings suggest that addressing kinesiophobia may improve overall quality of life for women suffering from fibromyalgia.
