This study investigates the psychosocial challenges associated with different juvenile idiopathic arthritis categories and identifies related factors.
Included 1072 patients aged 0-18 enrolled within 3 months of diagnosis in the CAPRI Registry.
Utilized the JAQQ psychosocial domain to measure the impact, with statistical analyses including Wilcoxon tests and regression models.
Hierarchical clustering created visual heatmaps for psychosocial scores across various JIA categories.
Oligoarthritis was the most common category (45.4% of patients) while polyarthritis RF-positive was least common (3.8%).
Significant improvements in psychosocial scores were observed for various JIA categories (p<0.05).
Polyarthritis RF-positive had the highest percentage of patients with severe psychosocial impact (12.5%, mean Z-score 2.24).
