Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Pain is considered the cardinal symptom in rheumatology. Nociceptive pain is generally well identified and responds to analgesics, whereas neuropathic pain is often unrecognized. In particular, around 40% of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) experience persistent pain despite disease control, suggesting an associated neuropathic component. Our study highlighted a high prevalence of neuropathic pain associated with RA, hence the need for early detection and appropriate management.
