Abstract in another language
Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is a rare neuromuscular disease and the most prevalent idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) in patients aged older than 50 years. A systematic review has shown that no clear-cut conclusions can be drawn about the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and mental health in IBM. We aimed to assess the HRQoL and mental health, to explore associated disease-related and socioeconomic factors as well as the utilization of psychological support in German IBM patients. This cross-sectional study included 82 patients registered in the German IBM patient registry. Patients had completed a survey battery including the EQ-5D-5L, the Individualized Neuromuscular Quality of Life (INQoL) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale German version (HADS-D). The physical HRQoL dimension was suggested to be most relevant. Most impaired life domains of HRQoL were mobility, independence, and activities. We identified significant differences in the total INQoL score for the degree of disability and care level as well as in depression for the degree of disability (p < 0.05), respectively. Most patients indicated no symptoms of anxiety (64.6%) and depression (62.2%). A more need-oriented psychological support in German IBM patients, reporting doubtful or definite anxiety or depression, could be suggested.
