Summary
Men can also develop fibromyalgia, but women are three times more likely to be affected. In 1990, the American College of Rheumatology first established firm diagnostic criteria for fibromyalgia, which were expanded in 2010 to include symptoms such as exhaustion and sleep disorders. Fibromyalgia: Study of 2.5 million people reveals biological cause for the first time.
Furthermore, 26 locations in DNA increase risk measurably The researchers identified 26 DNA sections that greatly increase the risk of fibromyalgia. Among them were around 54,629 people with fibromyalgia. This speaks against the earlier assumption that fibromyalgia is primarily an autoimmune disease.
In addition, In the future, those affected can refer to solid biological findings if their complaints are doubted. This provides for the first time a robust genetic evidence for a biological basis of the disease.
