Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of adding two questions and pictures to the validated PEST on the potential diagnosis of PsA in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque PsO in Canada. Patients will be enrolled in the study for up to 66 days and will be asked to fill-out a PsA screening questionnaire at their first dermatologist visit. Patients screening positive for PsA will have a second visit with a rheumatologist where a full PsA diagnosis assessment will be performed. A remote 'end of study' (EOS) visit will be conducted by the dermatologist to document the patient's biologic Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs (bDMARDs) treatment choice and status.
Psoriasis is one of the most common immunemediated chronic inflammatory skin disorders.
Psoriasis vulgaris is associated with significant comorbidity including depression, increased risk of cardiovascular events, diminished quality of life, as well as overall increased mortality. Moreover, concomitant psoriatic arthritis is present in up to 40% of psoriasis patients or will develop in the future. To enhance quality of life and potentially lower the risk of concomitant disease in psoriasis patients, effective treatment of this immune-mediated systemic inflammatory disease is required
The goal of this observational study is to develop and internally validate a machine learning model for detecting flare using a digital biomarker and a machine learning model for predicting flare, in patients with psoriatic arthritis. The main questions it aims to answer are: - In patients with psoriatic arthritis, is a digital biomarker capable of detecting a flare as compared to clinical defined flare by the rheumatologist? - In patients with psoriatic arthritis, what factors trigger a psoriatic arthritis flare ? Participants will be requested to: - Install app on their phone - Use a smartwatch - Complete questionnaires - Collect biological material
This study aims to collect information on rheumatology patients' dietary habits, autoimmune disease activity, dietary changes, disease symptom improvements, and perceptions on their dietary habits and how it affects their autoimmune disease. The main objective is to see if rheumatology patients change their dietary habits after their diagnosis of an autoimmune disease and if it subjectively improved their disease symptoms. It will also look at rheumatology patients' expectations for their rheumatologist when it comes to dietary advice and what resources they used to choose their new dietary habits. The study also seeks to measure the interest that rheumatology patients have in pursuing dietary changes as a means of controlling the symptoms of their autoimmune disease. It is expected that patients who changed their eating habits to healthier diets such as a Mediterranean diet would report less severe autoimmune disease symptoms. There are limited dietary recommendations for the management of many rheumatological diseases, so this study seeks to assess rheumatology patients' willingness to try dietary modifications, what improvements they had, and why they decide to make these changes in light of limited information.
People with chronic inflammatory arthritis (IA) (rheumatoid arthritis, axial spondyloarthritis, and psoriatic arthritis), often have a reduced work ability. Up to 40% lose their job in the first years after diagnosis. Consequently, they are at high risk of losing their jobs and being permanently excluded from the labour market. Therefore, a new context-specific vocational rehabilitation (VR) for people with IA was developed, based on the Medical Research Council's framework for complex interventions. The 6-months VR is called WORK-ON and consists of three parts: 1) a coordinating occupational therapist who performs an initial assessment and goalsetting process and supports cooperation between relevant partners and navigation between sectors, 2) Four group sessions with peers and if needed, 3) Individual sessions with a social worker, nurse, or physiotherapist. The objective of the WORK-ON trial is to test the overall efficacy on work ability compared to a control group who receives usual care and pamphlets for their employer and colleagues. Based on the experiences from a feasibility study, WORK-ON will be conducted as a randomised controlled trial. Patients with IA, aged 18 years or older, experiencing job insecurity will be randomised to one of two groups: the WORK-ON VR group or usual care (control group). The primary outcome; work ability measured is measured by Work Ability Index single item, at baseline, 6, 12, 18 and 30 months after baseline. Secondary outcomes are absenteeism, presenteeism, overall work impairment, activity impairment, job loss, quality of life, mental well-being, fatigue, sleep, physical activity, occupational balance and pain. Secondary outcomes are measured at baseline, 6 and 12 months after baseline. In addition, work ability, working hours per week and job loss are measured at 18 and 30 months after baseline.

This study is a randomized controlled study examining the effects of 8-week hand home exercises on grip strength, functionality, disease activity and quality of life in patients with PsA. Individuals participating in the study will be randomly divided into 2 groups. Individuals in the intervention group will perform home exercises consisting of stretching, mobility and strengthening, 4 days a week for 8 weeks, and the patients' compliance with the exercise will be monitored by phone call once a week. Individuals in the control group are on the waiting list and the same home exercise program will be taught to the patients at the end of the study.
The aim of the SALT study is to analyze the relationship between dietary sodium intake and disease activity in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (radiographic or non-radiographic) or psoriatic arthritis.
The main objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of si-544. Other objectives are to study the metabolism of si-544 in the body and to assess the effects of si-544 on cells of the body's immune system (immune cells) that have been chronically activated by the disease. Likewise, the effect of si-544 on inflammatory responses in the body triggered by the disease and other disease symptoms will be investigated.
