Itch in the general internal medicine setting: a cross-sectional study of prevalence and quality-of-life effects.
The researchers sought to determine the prevalence and impact of itch on quality of life (QOL) in the general internal medicine setting. They found that the patient burden of itch was similar to those of pain, constipation, sexual dysfunction, cough, and weight loss. They concluded that itch occurs commonly in the primary care setting and is associated with poor QOL.

Health perceptions and symptom burden in primary care: measuring health using audio computer-assisted self-interviews.
The purpose of the study was to assess the relationships among somatic symptoms and health perception measures in data collected from the implementation of audio computer-assisted self-interviews. It found physical symptoms, notably lack of energy and pain, to be prevalent and severe in an urban safety-net general medical population. Poor health perception in the patient population was attributable largely to lack of energy and pain.
