ABSTRACT
Objective:
This study aimed to relate physical activity and a sedentary lifestyle to clinical, biological, functional, and comorbid parameters in a cohort of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA).Methods:
A cross-sectional study was conducted with 232 PsA patients. Physical activity and sedentary lifestyle were obtained using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) questionnaire. The demographic, clinical, and biological variables measured were age, time since PsA diagnosis, smoking, type of treatment used, clinical form, presence of enthesitis, dactylitis (present or past), fatigue, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and interleukin 6 (IL-6). Activity and functionality were measured using the Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA) and Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) in peripheral forms, while the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS-PCR) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) were measured in axial forms. Disease impact was assessed using the Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease (PsAID) questionnaire. Alongside comorbidities, obesity, anxiety, depression [Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)], and sleep quality [Insomnia Severity Index (ISI)] were assessed.Results:
The mean age was 54.6 (SD 11.4) years, with 54.3% being male. A total of 25.6% of patients were sedentary. Physical activity and sedentary lifestyle were inversely correlated with fatigue, activity, functionality, and disease impact. Within comorbidities, they correlated with anxiety, depression, and insomnia. In addition, physical activity was inversely correlated with obesity. In linear regression analysis, physical activity was found to be related to body mass index (BMI) with a ß coefficient of -0.1 (p < 0.04; 95%CI -194.1--4.5), and an R2 value of 0.11. In logistic regression analysis, a sedentary lifestyle was found to be related to pain, with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.5 (p < 0.001; 95%CI1.1-1.8) and an R2 Nagelkerke value of 0.36.Conclusion:
A quarter of the patients were sedentary. Lack of physical activity correlated with worse parameters of clinical activity, functionality, disease impact, and the presence of comorbidities.
