Filter by:The purpose of the study is to learn about the ease of using a humidified fragrant citrus forest oil, along with a virtual simulation of a forest environment (i.e., with sights and sounds of nature using a personal tablet Surface Pro 3 with headphones, to learn more about how these two aspects of the simulated forest immersion therapy (SFIT) may improve pain, anxiety, blood-pressure, and heart rate related to Axial Spondyloarthritis. The investigators hope to learn how well SFIT may impact pain levels, feelings of calm, as well as blood- pressure and heart rate, and how participants tolerate the experience overall.
This study evaluates the efficacy of wet cupping therapy in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.Wet cupping therapy will be applied to half of the patients plus routine pharmaceutical treatment while the other half will receive only pharmaceutics
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a type of chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease that mainly affects the spine and peripheral joints, or joints, ligaments and tendons. This disease subtype has the same clinical and immunological features. Further explore the pathogenesis of spondyloarthritis, explore the guiding significance of different imaging examinations for spondyloarthritis, and study the efficacy and mechanism of different drugs for spondyloarthritis.
Retrospective study comparing the incidence of inflammatory and structural lesions seen on MRI of the sacro-iliac (SI) joints in a population of women affected by spondyloarthritis (SpA) and control women population (MISIA study NCT02956824). A previous study (MISIA) demonstrate SpA may be misdiagnosed on MRI in postpartum women due to increased stress on the joint following pregnancy and childbirth, as MRI of the SI joints may show lesions that could mimics SpA. The primary objective of this study is to compare the incidence and pattern of MRI inflammatory and structural lesions of the SI joints between SpA and control women, and determine differentiation criteria in SpA women.
This study aims to compare biological communities in stool samples obtained from age, diet and BMI-matched subjects in five study groups: subjects with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) never treated with tumor necrosing factor (TNF) inhibitors, subjects with ankylosing spondylitis previously or currently treated with TNF inhibitors, subjects with non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nrSpA) never treated with tumor necrosing factor (TNF) inhibitors, subjects with non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis previously or currently treated with TNF inhibitors and healthy participants. The differences in fecal microbiota composition will be explored using shotgun metagenomic sequencing through the University of Washington. The investigators predict that this study will confirm a significant difference between the fecal microbiota composition (FMC) of both AS and nrSpA patients and controls.
This prospective, non-interventional, research registry is designed to study the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved treatments for PsA-SpA in a cohort of patients cared for by rheumatologists across North America. Secondary objectives include analyzing the epidemiology and natural history of the disease, its comorbidities, and current treatment practices.
