“…The cluster diagram in Figure 3 illustrated that pain, fatigue and anxiety belong to the same cluster and have a strong correlation with each other, suggesting that these symptoms often occur simultaneously in RA patients. Although anxiety was not included in the symptomatic group in Oh's study, other researchers have confirmed that anxiety is also one of the common complications of RA patients (Qiu et al., 2019). Moreover, RA and anxiety also share the same pathological mechanism.…”

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by the chronic erosive arthritis, which causes a high disability rate (Zhou et al., 2013). The global incidence of RA is 0.5-1% (Smolen, Aletaha, & MeInnes, 2016). The aetiology and pathogenesis of this long-term progressive disease are complex, which may be related to both immune factors and the abnormality of synovial cells. RA is

“…As a characteristic of patients with RA, it has been reported that health assessed by physical activity and QOL are both decreased due to anxiety [15][16][17] . Therefore, the disease of RA itself and its peripheral effects in terms of anxiety among other issue may be the reason why actual activity does not improve after TKA.…”

The purpose of this study was to identify factors inhibiting improvement in the quality of life after total knee arthroplasty in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. [Participants and Methods] This was a pilot case-control study. The sample comprised of five participants with rheumatoid arthritis and 11 participants with osteoarthritis, who underwent total knee arthroplasty. We compared the groups in terms of physical function, walking ability, Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure, and Life-Space Assessment. Measurements were taken before surgery and at four weeks and five months post-surgery. All patients underwent rehabilitation for five months postoperatively, first as inpatients, and then as outpatients after discharge. [Results] In the period from 4 weeks to 5 months post-surgery, physical function improved similarly in both groups in terms of muscle strength and walking ability. Despite the patients with rheumatoid arthritis being younger, their self-health assessment score by the Japanese Knee Osteoarthritis Measure and measures of life-space mobility by Life-Space Assessment were lower.[Conclusion] It is important to consider exercise therapy, and gait instruction to alleviate anxiety about health status and improve the quality of life and life-space mobility in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who undergo total knee arthroplasty.

“…The psychological backgrounds of patients with connective tissue diseases are shown in Table 4 [9,[83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91]. Fatigue associated with psychosocial factors, such as depression, pain, and sleep disorders, were the most prevalent symptom in patients with connective tissue diseases [84].…”

The number of medically compromised dental patients is increasing every year with the increase in the super-aged population. Many of these patients have underlying psychiatric problems and diseases, which need to be recognized by dental professionals for better treatment outcomes. The aim of this narrative review article is to summarize the psychological and psychiatric backgrounds of medically compromised patients who are frequently visited and taken care of by dentists using findings from recent systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Anxiety and symptoms of depression, post-traumatic stress disorders, panic disorders, poor cognitive functions, and poor quality of life were some of the common psychological backgrounds in medically compromised patients. Additionally, the consequences of these psychological problems and the considerations that need to be taken by the dentist while treating these patients have been discussed. Dental professionals should be aware of and recognize the different psychological backgrounds of medically compromised dental patients in order to provide appropriate dental treatment and to prevent oral conditions from worsening.
