Biomarker for prediction of development of low back pain, and disease progression in chronic conditions are virtually non-existent. In the present study, we examined evidence of inflammation in the peripheral blood and demonstrated significant changes in neuroinflammation markers in subjects with
OBJECTIVE
To assess whether bone marrow edema (BME) detected on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the sacroiliac joints (MRI-SIJ) is associated with development of structural changes on both MRI and pelvic radiographs in patients with early inflammatory back pain (IBP).
METHODS
Patients with IBP ≤
To evaluate the association between inflammatory back pain (IBP) features, acute and structural MRI findings suggestive of sacroiliitis, and diagnosis of spondyloarthritis (SpA).Data from 224 patients who underwent MRI for suspected sacroiliitis (2005-2015) This study was conducted in order to compare the prevalence of inflammatory posterior arch abnormalities on lumbar spine MRI between axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients and low back pain (LBP) patients.Patients-axSpA patients meeting the 2009 ASAS OBJECTIVE
To determine the sensitivity and specificity of MRI features of sacroiliitis in spondyloarthritis (SpA).
METHODS
A retrospective study reviewed MRI of the sacroiliac (SI) joints in 517 patients with inflammatory back pain. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood ratios
OBJECTIVE
To screen susceptibility loci for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) using an affected-only linkage analysis based on high-density single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a genome-wide manner.
METHODS
AS patients from ten families with Cantonese origin of China were enrolled in the study. Blood
Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is a priority for patients. The objectives were to describe the changes in HRQoL over 5-8 years in patients with early arthritis (EA) or early inflammatory back pain (IBP) and to explore factors associated to HRQoL.In OBJECTIVE
Peripheral joint complaints [pJTC] and chronic back pain [CBP] are the most common extra-intestinal manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD]. This prospective study evaluates variables associated with joint/back pain, including IBD disease activity.
METHODS
IBD
The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have inflammatory back pain (IBP) and meet the existing classification criteria for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and spondyloarthritis (SpA). We included 167 patients fulfilling the ACR 1987 revised
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), as Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC), are frequently complicated by joint complaints with prevalence that varies between 10 and 28%. The IBD related arthropathy may be expressed as peripheral arthritis or axial one frequently indistinguishable from
OBJECTIVE
Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of 170 consecutive patients with inflammatory back pain (IBP) and/or oligoarthritis of the lower limbs were evaluated in a retrospective study. The aim was to determine the frequency of sacroiliitis and spondyloarthropathy (SpA) in this
Inflammatory back pain (IBP) is an important clinical feature for axial spondyloarthritis (SpA). Yet, little is known about their prevalences in China. We conducted an epidemiological study in a university to detect the prevalences of IBP and axial SpA according to the Assessment of
UNASSIGNED
The prevalence of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) in patients with the diagnosis of SpA has been reported to be higher than normal population. Yet, the vice-versa is unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of IBP, radiologic sacroiliitis and SpA in patients with primary
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic immune-mediated disease characterized by psoriatic skin and nail changes, peripheral joint inflammation, enthesitis, dactylitis, and/or axial involvement, either alone or in combination with each other. The presence of axial involvement has been shown to be a
The prevalence of radiological lesions of the manubriosternal joint was assessed in 151 patients with chronic inflammatory back pain and in 31 controls with non-inflammatory back pain. Nineteen out of these 151 patients and none of the controls showed unequivocal lesions of the manubriosternal joint
