Abstract
Rheumatic diseases are chronic conditions that often result in significant physical and psychological challenges, reducing patients' quality of life and increasing the economic burden on healthcare systems. This study examines the vital role of psychological interventions in the comprehensive treatment of rheumatic diseases. The findings reveal a high prevalence of psycho-emotional disorders such as depression, anxiety, and stress among these patients, which can worsen disease progression and hinder treatment adherence. The review highlights the bidirectional relationship between the central nervous and immune systems, showing how psychological stress influences the pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases. Various psychological interventions are explored, including mind-body therapies, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness-based practices such as meditation, yoga, and tai chi. These approaches improve emotional well-being, help reduce pain, and enhance overall quality of life. The article emphasizes a holistic treatment model incorporating pharmacological care, physical rehabilitation, and psychological support. This integrated approach fosters more effective management of rheumatic diseases by addressing their complex nature and promoting better functional outcomes. The study advocates for the seamless incorporation of psychological support into routine clinical practice tailored to the biopsychosocial profile of each patient. Future research should focus on identifying the most effective psychological interventions for different patient groups to enhance the quality of life for individuals with rheumatic diseases.
期刊介绍：
RHEUMATOLOGY INTERNATIONAL is an independent journal reflecting world-wide progress in the research, diagnosis and treatment of the various rheumatic diseases. It is designed to serve researchers and clinicians in the field of rheumatology.
RHEUMATOLOGY INTERNATIONAL will cover all modern trends in clinical research as well as in the management of rheumatic diseases. Special emphasis will be given to public health issues related to rheumatic diseases, applying rheumatology research to clinical practice, epidemiology of rheumatic diseases, diagnostic tests for rheumatic diseases, patient reported outcomes (PROs) in rheumatology and evidence on education of rheumatology. Contributions to these topics will appear in the form of original publications, short communications, editorials, and reviews. "Letters to the editor" will be welcome as an enhancement to discussion. Basic science research, including in vitro or animal studies, is discouraged to submit, as we will only review studies on humans with an epidemological or clinical perspective. Case reports without a proper review of the literatura (Case-based Reviews) will not be published. Every effort will be made to ensure speed of publication while maintaining a high standard of contents and production.
Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1964 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted.
