Evaluating the Persian versions of two psoriatic arthritis screening questionnaires Early Arthritis for Psoriatic Patients questionnaire (EARP) and Psoriasis Epidemiology Screening Tool (PEST) in Iranian psoriatic patients.
CONCLUSION: The Persian version of both questionnaires showed good diagnostic performances. We suggest EARP as a screening tool for PsA in the dermatology clinics, due to much higher sensitivity with acceptable specificity compared to PEST.
