Article Abstract

Background: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) are inflammatory diseases with shared genetic backgrounds and clinical comorbidities. Headache, a common global health issue, affects over 50% of adults and encompasses various types, including migraine, tension-type, and cluster headaches. Migraine, the most prevalent, recurrent, and disabling type, is often associated with other medical conditions such as depression, epilepsy, and psoriasis, but little is known about the relationship between autoimmune disease and the risk of migraine.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from July to November 2022, enrolling 286 participants, including 216 with PsA, 70 with axSpA, and 87 healthy controls.

Results: Headache prevalence was significantly higher in the PsA (39.81%) and axSpA (45.71%) patients compared to the healthy controls. The prevalence of migraine without aura was also significantly higher in both the PsA (18.52%) and axSpA (28.57%) groups compared to the healthy controls.

Conclusions: These findings underscore the high burden of headache and migraine in PsA and axSpA participants, highlighting the need for improved management and treatment strategies for these patients.

Background: SLE has increased risk of invasive pneumococcal disease due to immune dysregulation and immunosuppression. European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology recommendations suggest sequential vaccination with conjugate vaccine, followed by 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23). However, data on immunogenicity of sequential vaccination in SLE are limited.

Background: Rhinosinusitis (RS) is a leading reason for antibiotic prescriptions but treatment satisfaction is low. Misdiagnosis may contribute to poor outcomes, as migraine-often underrecognized-can mimic RS symptoms, with studies showing overlap between RS and migraine diagnoses. Our aims were to explore the demographics and clinical features of facial pain or pressure (FPP), its relationship with migraine and RS, and distinguish symptoms between these overlapping conditions.

Background And Aims: Extraintestinal symptoms are well-documented in systemic, inflammation-predominant conditions. Less is understood about extragastrointestinal symptoms among individuals with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and non-EoE eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs). We aimed to describe the differences in the frequency of patient-reported joint or leg pain and headache for EoE and non-EoE EGIDs individuals.
