Among them, vascular and nervous system involvement are the most common causes of mortality in Behçet’s disease. The previous studies have shown that Quality of Life in patients with Behçet disease was negatively affected by the disease.Aim of the study : To evaluate Quality of Life in patients with Behçet’s disease compared with healthy controls, To assess the correlation of Quality of Life with organ involvements of Behçet’s disease and To assess the effect of demographic and clinical features of Behçet’s disease on Quality of Life. Patients and Methods : A case - control study was conducted at the Rheumatology Unit of Baghdad Teaching Hospital in Medical City from July 2017 to January 2018 . A total of seventy - one consecutive patients (45 male : 26 female) were classified as Behçet’s disease by fulfilling the International Study Group criteria 1990 for Behçet’s disease and compared with seventy - one healthy controls (45 male : 26 female) matched for age and gender. After acquiring their consent, findings were gathered using a preconstructed data collection sheet for patients and controls that evaluate Age, gender, smoking status, disease duration, age at disease onset, Behçet’s disease organ involvements were reported. Disease activity was assessed using Behçet's disease current activity form and health - related quality - of - life was evaluated using The Short Form - 36 (SF - 36) .Results : All the components of Short Form - 36 (SF - 36) , it’s summary scores and Total Short Form - 36 (Total SF - 36) score was significantly lower ( p - value <0.001 ) in patients compared to control . Patients with eye involvement had significantly higher Physical functioning (p - value = 0.023), role - physical ( p - value <0.001), and bodily pain (p - value <0.010) subscores when compared to those without eye involvement. Patients with skin involvement did not show a significant impairment in all SF - 36 subscales when compared to those without skin involvement. Behçet's disease Patients with articular involvement, Physical functioning (p - value = 0.027), bodily pain (p - value <0.001), and general health (p - value = 0.018) subscores are significantly impaired when compared to those without articular involvement .Behçet’s disease patients with myalgia, Physical functioning (p - value = 0.001), bodily pain (p - value = 0.018), and vitality (p - value = 0.038) subscores are significantly impaired when compared to those without myalgia. patients with Central nervous system involvement, physical functioning (p - value = 0.006), rolephysical (p - value <0.001), bodily pain (p - value = 0.001) , general health (p - value = 0.001) and vitality (p - value = 0.042) subscores are significantly impaired when compared to those without Central nervous system involvement. There are certain demographic and treatment modalities had a significant positive impact on Total SF - 36 score : Male gender (p - value = 0.020) , use of cyclosporine (p - value = 0.043 ), use of infliximab (p - value = 0.001), and use of adalimumab (p - value = 0.001) . While others had a significant negative impact on Total SF - 36 score : Disease duration (pvalue = 0.019) , Behçet’s Disease Current Activity Form (BDCAF) (p - value = 0.043 ), and use of Mycophenolate mofetil (p - value = 0.043 ).
