The association of intensity of joint pain and health-related quality of life among adults with arthritis: a large population-based cross-sectional study
Moderate-to-severe joint pain is associated with poorer HRQoL across all domains, with severity-correlated HRQoL decline and subgroup variations. Targeted pain management strategies, particularly for severe pain and vulnerable populations, are critical to improving outcomes in arthritis.
