| Description: | Background/Aims Idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) is characterised by myositis, which can impact activities of daily living. The 2022 BSR IIM management guideline recommends assessing/managing factors associated with poor mental wellbeing and quality of life. Research into anxiety and depression associated with IIM is limited. This study aims to investigate associations between anxiety/depression and IIM disease activity. Methods The MYOPROSP study recruited UK adults with verified IIM throughout a 36 month period between 2016 and 2020. Patient questionnaires were collected at three, six, and 12 months. Participants completed the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire, which includes a question relating to anxiety and depression with five possible responses: “I am (not/slightly/moderately/severely/extremely) anxious or depressed”. The cohort was divided by response to the EQ-5D-5L anxiety/depression question at the time of recruitment. Disease activity was assessed using International Myositis Assessment & Clinical Studies Group (IMACS) Disease Activity Core Set Measures (see Table 1) and summarised across each EQ-5D-5L anxiety/depression group. The EQ-5D-5L visual analogue scale (VAS) relating to “overall health” (higher values correspond to better health) this value was summarised across each EQ-5D-5L anxiety/depression group. Only participants with complete data at recruitment were included in analysis. One-way ANOVA was performed to determine statistical significance (p Results Complete data on 35 participants (71% female) was collected. All participants reported to have no, slight, or moderate anxiety/depression (i.e. no participant reported severe or extreme anxiety/depression) (Table 1). The “not anxious/depressed” group demonstrated higher EQ-5D VAS values (reflecting better perceived health), shorter disease duration, and higher CK levels, compared to groups with “slight” and “moderate” anxiety/depression. All other investigated variables did not consistently vary across anxiety/depression groups. One-way ANOVA identified that only disease duration and EQ-5D VAS were significantly associated with EQ-5D-5L anxiety/depression group. Conclusion Anxiety and depression are associated with longer disease duration and poorer overall health in adults with IIM. These findings suggest that anxiety/depression in adults with IIM may be due to sustained muscle damage and resulting impacts upon activities of daily living and quality of life, rather than disease activity.
