Clinical features and chronology of clinical manifestations in Behçet’s disease: A cohort of 2615 patients
Our findings highlight substantial temporal heterogeneity in BD symptom progression. While oral ulcers appear early, genital ulcers and skin manifestations tend to develop later, and ocular and vascular lesions exhibit the longest delay. The chronology of symptom onset is significantly influenced by age, sex, HLA-B5/B51 status, and initial presenting symptom. These findings underscore the importance of long-term follow-up in BD management.
