NCT ID: NCT06226792 Completed - Clinical trials for Ankylosing Spondylitis

Muscle Architecture in Ankylosing Spondylitis

Start date: January 18, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The goal of this observational study is to determine whether there is a decrease in muscle mass and the relationship between lower extremity skeletal muscle mass, muscle strength and disease activity in Ankylosing spondylitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there a relationship between the muscle thickness and pennation angle of the quadriceps, Gastrocnemius medialis and lateralis, Vastus medialis and lateralis and tibialis anterior muscles with disease activity and muscle strength? - Are there any differences in the results of morphological parameters of lower extremity muscles between Ankylosing spondylitis and voluntary participants? Researchers will compare voluntary participants to see if any difference in lower muscle morphological parameters.

NCT ID: NCT06219603 Completed - Rheumatic Diseases Clinical Trials

Awareness About Rheumatic Diseases in a Sample of Syrian Population

Start date: December 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The manuscript describes the level of knowledge and awareness about rheumatic diseases in a Syrian population. we found that awareness of rheumatic diseases is mostly bad and very bad in our sample. Also, we showed how the level of awareness changes due to the change of many factors such as (sex, age, residency, education, marital status, and others ). Our community-based survey was the first conducted in Syria. we have included a total of 641 participants who were directed to the first part of the survey to complete questions around socio-demographic data and awareness questions about rheumatic diseases. We ranked our participants into five levels: excellent, good, average, bad, and very bad. Finally, we compared our results with other 4 original published studies, and we found many Boolean points of similarity and many other inspiring points of difference.

NCT ID: NCT06198361 Completed - Clinical trials for Whole-body SPECT-CT CzT-based

Value of Whole-body SPECT-CT CzT-based Camera (VERITON-CT) in the Assessment of Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism With Axial Involvement and Especially of the Sacroiliac Joints

ASOCE-SI
Start date: November 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The diagnosis of chronic inflammatory rheumatism with axial involvement is not always easy, and is fraught with difficulties : radiological sacroiliitis is not an early sign of spondyloarthritis and the delay in detecting radiological signs contributes to the delay in diagnosis. Nevertheless, spondyloarthritis is now the second most common chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease, affecting 0.43% of the french population. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of whole-body SPECT-CT CzT-based camera (VERITON-CT) in the assessment of chronic inflammatory rheumatism with axial involvement and especially of the sacroiliac joints. MRI of the sacroiliac joints was used as a gold standard.

NCT ID: NCT05920746 Completed - Clinical trials for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Treatment of Rheumatoid Hand With Magnetotherapy

Start date: March 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Brief Summary: Participants with rheumatoid arthritis with recommendation to physiotherapy. Created 2 study groups: 1. Kinesiotherapy with static magnetic field 2. Kinesiotherapy with low-frequency pulsed magnetic field Pulsed magnetic field give better effects then static magnetic field.

NCT ID: NCT05888220 Completed - Clinical trials for Rheumatoid Arthritis - Rheumatism

Application of Warm Water and Warm Salt Water to Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

Start date: January 4, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This pretest-posttest randomized controlled study aimed to determine the effect of warm salt water and warm water bath applied to the hands and feet on pain, fatigue, sleep quality, and functional capacity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The study consisted of three groups. These groups consisted of two intervention groups and one control group. As a result of the power analysis, it was determined that 54 people should be reached. Visual Analog Scale, Bristol Rheumatoid Arthritis Fatigue Multidimensional Questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and Health Assessment Questionnaire were used in the study. Patients in intervention groups applied a 41°C warm salt and warm water bath three times a week for six weeks in line with the training given. The patients in the control group did not undergo any intervention other than routine treatment and care.

NCT ID: NCT05872633 Completed - Osteoarthritis Clinical Trials

Online Self-management in Hand Osteoarthritis

Start date: August 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

NB. This study has been previously registered with the National Trial Registry (NTR6266) that has been cancelled. The registered trial has been automatically transferred to a new "Landelijk Trial Register", which does not contain all correct information on the current study and where no corrections can be made. Hence, the current study has been registered again with ClinicalTrials.gov. The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effectiveness of an online self-management intervention in adult patients with hand osteoarthritis and to explore the possibilities to implement the intervention in clinical practice after the study period. An RCT will be performed, in which 70 participants will be randomized to either care-as-usual (hand osteoarthritis care path, including consultation with the rheumatologist and a 1,5-hour consultation with a clinical nurse or occupational therapist, n=35) or care-as-usual plus the online self-management intervention (n=35). The primary effect constitutes of the difference in change in pain coping between patients in the intervention and control condition from baseline to post-intervention. As secondary outcomes, a number of other psychological and physical outcome measures will be assessed (e.g., health-related quality of life, well-being, pain impact on daily life, pain cognitions). Also, cost-effectiveness of the intervention will be measured, by assessing productivity loss and health care use of participants (using iPCQ and iMCQ).

NCT ID: NCT05832359 Completed - Clinical trials for Childhood Rheumatic Diseases

NCT ID: NCT05787340 Completed - Rheumatic Diseases Clinical Trials

Investigation From Biopsychosocial Perspective of Patients With Rheumatic Disease With Covid-19 Who Participated in a Biopsychosocial Exercise Program: A Case Series With 6-Month Follow-up

Start date: June 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Objective: This novel study aimed to interrogate from a biopsychosocial perspective the health conditions during the Covid-19 infection and long-Covid periods of 5 patients with rheumatic disease infected with Covid-19 who had acquired the habit of regular exercise before the pandemic. Method: This case study included five patients suffering from Covid-19 infection among patients with rheumatic disease who had acquired the habit of regular exercise before the Covid-19 pandemic. It was applied a questionnaire to the patients from a biopsychosocial perspective to see the short and long-term effects of Covid-19 during and after quarantine. Moreover, the study used the BETY-Biopsychosocical Questionnaire (BETY-BQ) to evaluate a biopsychosocial point, Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) to measure functional status, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to assess anxiety and depression. Results: In BETY-BQ, HAQ, and HADS, there was an unfavorable increase in overall scores of all patients during Covid-19. After six months, although the results from these three scales improved, some of the patients could not return to their pre-covid state. Conclusions: The patients participating in the telerehabilitation were able to return to everyday life after Covid more efficiently and overcome post-Covid symptoms easily. This study is important in guiding the exercise approach for patients with rheumatic diseases in pandemics such as Covid-19.
