It is reported that this disease affects one in every 200 people, is usually diagnosed years after the onset of symptoms, and negatively affects quality of life. The prevalence of AS is between 0.2% and 1.1%, and symptoms begin before the age of 30 in approximately 80% of cases. The main complaints of patients diagnosed with AS include pain, joint stiffness, fatigue, and functional limitations of various degrees. Functional limitations resulting from inflammation and\u002For bone formations affect daily life activities, especially the person's ability to participate in leisure and domestic activities, and work productivity, and can limit social roles in the family and society. It is reported in the literature that regular PGE reduces pain and fatigue, facilitates the transition to sleep, and improves quality of life. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of PGE in reducing pain and fatigue frequently experienced by AS patients and to contribute to symptom management.",[58],"Ankylosing Spondylitis","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2025-06-30",{"date":62,"type":63},"2025-07-10","ACTUAL",{"date":65,"type":52},"2025-07-15",{"date":67,"type":52},"2027-01-15",{"name":5,"class":6}]
