Factor Analysis to Determine Subgroups of Gastrointestinal Symptoms in Systemic Sclerosis

Despite the high correlation between GI manifestations, it is possible to detect subgroups of SSc-GI symptoms. Improved understanding of these subgroups of SSc-GI disease may advance the discovery of targeted interventions to improve the daily function and quality of life of those living with SSc.
