Health‐related quality of life in Norwegian adults with Fabry disease: Disease severity, pain, fatigue and psychological distress

Abstract Health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) is reduced in Fabry disease (FD) and associated with clinical disease manifestations, but few have used Fabry‐specific severity scores to study how disease burden interferes with quality of life. We investigated how the Fabry DS3, consisting of four so...
