Audiovestibular assessment in Patients with Fibromyalgia
What this trial is about
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a common rheumatic illness distinguished by chronic pain, fatigue, cognitive problems, and functional disability. However, the differences between men and women have not yet been comprehensively studied, especially after the development of the last 2016 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria. The disease is more common and more severe in female patients according to a study on gender differences among Egyptian patients (A. Moshrif et al., 2023)
