- Brief Summary
Recent studies have highlighted the consequences of COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing on mental health of individuals. The aim of this study is to evaluate those consequences within a sample of inflammatory chronic rheumatism affected patients, taking into account the well-known key role of stress in the set-up of such diseases.
- Detailed Description
The previous H1N1 and SRAS-1 pandemics, that required to containment and quarantine, have lead to the emergence of mental symptoms such as stress, anxiety, insomnia... The French COCONEL study during the COVID pandemic have shown the major psychological impact of this crisis on the population, leading to stress and fears.
Stressful life events are well-known factors of chronic inflammatory rheumatisms set-up or flare. The aim of this study is therefore to evaluate the psychological impact of COVID-19 pandemic on chronic inflammatory rheumatism (CIR) affected patients.
A case-control prospective multicentric study will be performed on 212 CIR patients versus 106 controls to compare the stress level in each group. Patient reported outcomes will be evaluated, using electronic questionnaires, as well as classical clinical informations on CIR evolution during a 6-months follow-up period. An ancillary study on 100 patients will also be realized to quantify cytokine serum levels and determinate transcriptomic profiles.

At inclusion (day 0), 3 months and 6 months after inclusion Evaluation of chronic inflammatory rheumatism activity scores using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) At inclusion (day 0), 3 months and 6 months after inclusion that varies between 0 and 100mm with higher value mean higher value means higher level of disease activity.
Evaluation of the impact of COVID-19 diagnostic on the stress level according to 10-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) At inclusion (day 0), 3 months and 6 months after inclusion that varies between 10 and 50 with higher values mean greater difficulties to deal with stress
Evaluation of the impact of COVID-19 diagnostic on CIR activity using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) At inclusion (day 0), 3 months and 6 months after inclusion that varies between 0 and 100mm with higher value mean higher value means higher level of disease activity
