Patient-driven assessment of disease activity in Behçet's syndrome: cross-cultural adaptation, reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Behçet's Syndrome Activity Score.

We found that the BSAS has modest correlation with BDCAF and is a reliable and valid patient reported measure of disease activity that can be used to assess patients with BS. An outcome score composed of only patient-derived observations may have the additional advantage of being easier to use in a routine care setting. Demonstration of a moderate level of correlation between RAPID3 and BDCAF (close to the level of weak relationship), suggests that RAPID3 likely needs more investigations before recommending its use in BS.
