Filter by: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.
This study was carried out to investigate the effect of a nurse-led disease management education program in AS on patient compliance, disease activity, functional capacity, kinesiophobia, and quality of life. A total of 122 patients diagnosed with AS according to the modified New York criteria were included in the study. The intervention group received nurse-led individualized disease management education. In the control group, no interventions were performed other than routine clinical procedures.
The aim of this study was to assess the EATT and the related factors in patients with AS and to compare the results with that of the healthy controls'
In this study, the aim was to investigate the relationship between SII and other laboratory parameters with disease activity in AS patients and to discuss its usability in the follow-up and treatment process.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of LNK01001 monotherapy versus placebo in the treatment of adults with active Ankylosing Spondylitis
This study was planned to examine and compare the effectiveness of two different pilates exercise methods (mat pilates vs reformer pilates) in individuals with Ankylosing Spondylitis(AS).
This study included 113 patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis and 110 healthy volunteers. Participants in both groups were evaluated using the 'Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD)' diagnostic criteria. In addition, the relationship between temporomandibular joint dysfunction and disease activity was investigated in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.
The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of 12-week Baduanjin qigong exercises in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. 59 volunteer individuals, ages 18-64, will be included in the study. They will be randomly divided into two groups (the intervention and the control). The intervention group will perform a qigong exercise program online (via Zoom video conference) for 12 weeks under the supervision of two physiotherapists. The qigong exercise program had previously been videotaped by the researchers. The control group will perform the home exercise program at home for 12 weeks.
This study will aim to compare ankylosing spondylitis (AS) participants with abnormal modified Schober index (AMSI) versus AS participants with normal modified Schober index (NMSI) in pain, morning stiffness, balance, kinesiophobia and the fear of falling. In addition, the investigators will aim to determine which demographic characteristics and variables predispose AMSI to occur
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease that mainly affects the spine and pelvis in its axial form. It is responsible for chronic inflammatory pain and sometimes ankylosis with significant functional retention. Clinicians need markers capable of precisely measuring the restriction of range of motion in these patients, reflections of the activity and/or sequelae of the disease. The Inverstigators validated movement markers in the AS by a device including inertial sensors (XSENS) and computer modeling. The accuracy and repeatability of the XSENS-Awinda system compared to the reference measurement system have been demonstrated. The XSENS-Awinda device offers new real-time evaluation possibilities for quantitative gait analysis. This opens the way to new diagnostic tools, prognostics and therapeutic perspectives for the clinician.
