背景：自我报告健康评估问卷（HAQ）量化了日常生活活动（ADL）的残疾。在类风湿性关节炎患者中，HAQ可预测死亡率、工作能力丧失和髋关节置换手术。HAQ在风湿病学中已得到广泛应用，但基于人群的数据很少。目的：探讨HAQ能否预测类风湿关节炎患者的死亡率（n = 1095）和社区对照组方法：邮寄问卷，包括HAQ、疼痛和整体健康的视觉模拟量表、合并症、教育水平、身高、体重，2000年6月进行吸烟状况调查。两年后，从芬兰人口登记数据库中确定了受试者的生命状态。结果：在404例基线HAQ大于或等于1（表明大多数ADL至少有一定困难）的类风湿性关节炎患者中，有41例死亡（10.1%），在691例HAQ患者中有16例死亡（2.3
Background: The self report health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) quantifies disability in activities of daily living (ADL). In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, the HAQ predicts mortality, work disability, and hip replacement surgery. It has been widely used in rheumatology, but population based data are rare.Objective: To determine whether the HAQ predicts mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (n = 1095) and community controls ( n = 1490).Methods: A mailed questionnaire including the HAQ, visual analogue scales for pain and global health, comorbidities, education level, height, weight, and smoking status was administered in June 2000. Two years later, the vital status of the subjects was ascertained from the Finnish Population Register database.Results: There were 41 deaths (10.1%) among the 404 patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had a baseline HAQ greater than or equal to 1 ( indicating at least some difficulty in most ADL), and 16 (2.3%) among 691 patients with HAQ
