Summary
This study looks at whether stressful or traumatic life events increase the chance of developing fibromyalgia. Researchers will follow 534 adults—some with rheumatic diseases and some healthy—for one year, checking for new fibromyalgia cases. The goal is to better understand how adversity may affect disease risk, which could help shape future prevention and care strategies.
