Summary:ABSTRACT Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease that is characterized by synovitis, systemic inflammation, arthritis and vasculitis, anemia, mononeuritis, pulmonary fibrosis, and can cause joint destruction, limitation of joint movements and impairment of the patient's quality of life if not treated in right time and adequate manner. A large-scale study using health data in Denmark showed that the risk of BD increased in the first 4 years after the diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis, RA, Multiple Sclerosis, psoriasis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and 5 years after the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (Eaton et al. 2010). Anxiety has been associated with age, gender, marital status, the intensity of pain sensation, disease activity, and the socio-economic status of the patient (Kojima et al. 2009, Ho et al. 2011, İmran et al. 2015). [...]autoimmune diseases like RA and psychiatric disorders may have common etiologies.
