Comorbidities in Spondyloarthritis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2018
Comorbidities in spondyloarthritis (SpA) add to the burden of disease by contributing to disease activity, functional and work disability, and mortality. Thus, awareness of comorbidities in SpA is crucial to improve their screening and management and to ultimately improve outcomes in those affected.
