Psoriatic Arthritis Quality of Life Questionnaire: translation, cultural adaptation and validation into Brazilian Portuguese language.

Introduction: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a multifaceted inflammatory disease that can cause joint destruction and impair quality of life. The Psoriatic Arthritis Quality of Life Questionnaire (PsAQoL) was the first disease-specific tool for determining the impact of the disease on the quality of life of people with PsA.

Objectives: The primary objective was to develop and validate a Brazilian Portuguese version of the PsAQoL.

Validation of the Toronto Psoriatic Arthritis Screen II (ToPAS II) questionnaire in a Brazilian population.

The Toronto Psoriatic Arthritis Screen II (ToPAS II) was developed as a tool to screen patients with probable psoriatic arthritis. We aimed to evaluate the validation of the ToPAS II questionnaire in a Brazilian population. The Portuguese translation of the ToPAS II was sent to us by the developer authors of the original index, and adapted to Brazilian Portuguese.
