“…The consequences of major organ involvement can largely be eliminated by immunosuppressive medications in BD, whereas mucocutaneous symptoms, as a mild disease spectrum, can remain active under a mild antiinflammatory agent (frequently colchicine)-based protocol (22)(23)(24)(25). In this context, producing new disease-specific or organspecific outcome measures for use in the decision-making process can be helpful in patient management (22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29). Productivity loss at work and/or in daily life and diseasespecific fears can be considered as outcome measures in cases of BD; however, there have been no data presented to date regarding this issue.…”

Background/aim: The aim of this study was to assess the relationships between the course of Behçet's disease (BD), disease-specific fears, and work productivity and activity impairment. Materials and methods:In this cross-sectional study, 110 consecutive BD patients were included. The Work Productivity and Activity Impairment questionnaire was used.Results: In the group of employed patients, 30.41% had missed work during the previous week. The mean percentages of daily activity impairment were higher in patients with musculoskeletal involvement (39.81 ± 33.61%) compared to those without (23.48 ± 32.45%) (P = 0.008). A greater decrease in working hours was observed in patients with eye involvement (45.52 ± 15.29 h) compared to those without (54.15 ± 15.29 h) (P = 0.007). More of the male patients (67.8%) were afraid of losing their jobs compared to females (30%) (P = 0.000). Conclusion:The highest levels of lost productivity and the most severe effects on daily life are consequences of eye and musculoskeletal involvement in the study population. More effective therapeutic approaches are required to improve the working lives of patients with BD. Moreover, male patients had a higher fear of losing their jobs, suggesting a match between the expected clinical course and the predictions of BD patients.

Background and Design:Behçet's disease (BD) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a condition affecting oral health-related quality of life (QoL). In this study, we aimed to evaluate QoL of BD patients by using the Behçet's disease quality of life instrument (BDQLI) and to compare the QoL of patients with BD with that of patients with RAS and healthy controls. Materials and Methods: Forty patients with BD and 40 patients with RAS and 40 healthy subjects with similar sociodemographic characteristics were included in the study. We used the BDQLI to evaluate QoL of patients with BD and the Dermatology-specific quality of life instrument for comparison of QqL between patients with BD and RAS. 36-Item Short Form Health Survey and clinical data form were applied in all participants. The results were analyzed statistically. The power of the study was 99%. Results: QoL of patients with BD were lower than that of healthy controls. It was observed that patients with BD had decreased physical functions, impaired perception of pain and poor general health (p<0.001, p=0.001, p=0.016, <0.001). Physical functions were decreased and perception of general heath was worse in patients with RAS compared to healthy controls (p=0.018, p=0.021). There was no difference in

“…Although the aetiopathogenesis of both BD and RAU have not yet been clarified, several mechanisims such as local trauma, nutritional deficiency, food hypersensitivity, genetics, infection, immunoglobulin, immune complexes and psychological stress have all been suggested as the causes of these diseases (6,7). Previous studies have suggested that psychological disturbances such as stress and anxiety could play a role in the onset, BD and RAU (7)(8)(9). A chronic disease such as BD may lead to temporary or permanent functional disabilities and may cause some psychiatric disorders (7).…”

The aim of this study was to determine the existing relation between the Behçet's Disease (BD), Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAU) and psychological alterations of the patient, such as depression and anxiety. 30 patients with RAU, and 30 patients with BD, and 15 patients with healthy subjects were participated in the study. Systemic, dental and aphthous ulceration anamnesias of all the patients in the study group have been taken in detail and neckhead, oral mucosa and dental examinations have been made and data has been recorded. Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and Beck Depression Inventory have been applied. It was observed that the depression level is higher in patient with BD and RAU in comparison with healthy subjects (p<0.05). Depression may play a role in manifestations of BD and RAU.
