Brief Summary:
Assessment of Sleep-related breathing disorders, anxiety, depression and quality of life in Behcet's disease.
Detailed Description:
Behçet's disease (BD) was first described by Turkish dermatologist Hulusi Behçet in 1937 as a triad of recurrent oral aphthae, genital ulcerations and relapsing uveitis. Behçet disease (BD) is an inflammatory vasculopathy with multisystemic involvement. The clinical course usually follows a relapsing-remitting course with heterogeneous clinical manifestations.
The complexity of signs and symptoms in BD can disturb an individual's lifestyle by causing limitation in activity. As a result, numerous psychological problems may arise. Furthermore, it was shown in some studies that in patients with BD with fatigue, there was a significant association with impaired quality of life.
Some studies reported the sleep quality in Behcet disease is very poor, and restless legs syndrome, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and activity of Behcet disease could affect to the quality of life.
However, to date, there have been limited studies regarding sleep quality, quality of life, and depression in Behcet disease patients. Extrapolating that Behcet disease, a kind of Vasculitis, also affects the sleep quality, it is considered a meaningful study to compare and analyze the relationship between disease activity and sleep quality, quality of life, and depression in Egyptian population of Behcet disease patients.
