Note: Values shown are unadjusted means and standard deviations. Higher pain scores reflect more severe pain. Higher scores on other measures indicate more severe impairments in functioning. JPFS = juvenile primary fibromyalgia syndrome; JIA = juvenile idiopathic arthritis; SLE = systemic lupus erythematosus; JDM = juvenile dermatomyositis; MCTD = mixed connective tissue disease
