Clinical Rheumatology, 07/02/09
Nunez M et al. - Cluster analysis showed three typologies differentiated by gender, age, and socioeconomic level and by the terms used to describe perceptions of HRQL with no marked clinical differences. Characteristic phrases were “to be totally independent, to have no pain, and to do things without thinking about the negative effects”; “to have no pain and control my moods and my illness has made me a little excitable”; and “to feel well enough to do things for myself”. Three representative typologies of patients were identified who differed clearly in their perceptions of HRQL.
