OBJECTIVES: To compare socioeconomic status (SES) of patients with Behçet's syndrome (BS) with other chronic inflammatory diseases and healthy controls (HC), and to identify associated clinical factors.
METHODS: The InCharge Financial Distress/Financial Well-being (IFDFW) and Socioeconomic Status Composite (SES-C) scales were translated, validated in Turkish, and administered face-to-face to 506 BS, 144 ankylosing spondylitis (AS), 113 psoriatic arthritis (PsA), 140 inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and 94 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, and 402 HC. SES-C served as the primary outcome measure. Ordinal logistic regression identified independent SES predictors across all participants and within the BS subgroup.
RESULTS: Both instruments demonstrated excellent psychometric properties in Turkish (ICC=0.979 for IFDFW; ICC=0.962 for SES-C). BS patients had the lowest mean SES-C score (17.76±2.98); 33.9% were classified in the very low or low SES categories, exceeding IBD (25.7%), PsA (20.4%), AS (16.0%), HC (15.7%), and MS (11.7%). In multivariate analysis, BS (OR 2.135, p<0.001) and IBD (OR 1.709, p=0.015) were independently associated with lower SES, whereas MS was associated with higher SES [OR 0.516, p=0.009]. Within the BS subgroup, employment status (OR 4.480, p<0.001) and BDCAF score (OR 1.154, p=0.022) were independent predictors of lower SES. Lower SES persisted in BS patients without major organ involvement.
CONCLUSIONS: BS patients had the lowest SES among all groups. The opposing SES associations of BS and MS within the same healthcare setting support disease-specific environmental contributions to pathogenesis. The independent association of disease activity with lower SES in BS suggests a bidirectional relationship, in which low SES may amplify disease through environmental exposures while active disease drives socioeconomic decline through work disability.
