Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of neuropathic pain in patients with various subtypes of spondyloarthritis (SpA), including axial SpA (axSpA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and undifferentiated peripheral SpA (p-SpA). Additionally, the study sought to identify potential risk factors associated with the presence or severity of neuropathic pain and to investigate its impact on clinical disease activity assessment.
