title: [Effects of radon and peloid therapy on functional condition and quality of life in patients with seronegative spondyloarthritis].
abstract: Radon and peloid therapy was given to 88 patients with seronegative spondyloarthritis. Of them, 58 had ankylosing spondyloarthritis (30 patients had a more severe affection of the spine and 28--of peripheral joints), 30 had reactive arthritis and Reiter's disease. Water radon baths and low-temperature peloid applications produced in all the patients analgetic, anti-inflammatory effects, improved functional condition and quality of life, i.e. self-service, occupational skills, wellness, sleep and libido.
