Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. The aim of this study is to reveal the relationship between dietary intake, blood total antioxidant capacity and disease activity in individuals with AS. This study will include patients diagnosed with AS who applied to Ankara City Hospital Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Hospital, and a control group that does not have AS. The sociodemographic characteristics and nutritional habits and 1-day physical activity status of individuals with AS and healthy persons will be recorded. Anthropometric measurements of all individuals (such as height length (cm) and body weight) will be taken. From the height and body weight measurements, the individuals body mass indexes will be calculated. All parts of the questionnaire for individuals included in the research will be filled in by the researcher through face-to-face interview technique. The disease activity score of the individuals in the case group will be evaluated by the physician. Serum biochemical parameters will be taken from the patient files. In the patient information system of the control group, above mentioned blood tests will be recorded from the examinations performed in the last 1 month. Serum total antioxidant and oxidant levels will be measured in a private laboratory with a tube (5 ml) of blood from all individuals. The parameters to be examined in blood samples are specific to the study and their cost will be covered by the researchers.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between decrease in work productivity and social activities in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) with disease activity, depression and quality of life together with demographic data.
Forty-five AS patients and 35 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Patients diagnosed with AS according to Modified New York criteria were included in the study. Clinical and laboratory measurements, duration of symptoms, age and body mass index (BMI) of AS patients were performed and compared with age and BMI matched control group.
Recent studies and meta-analysis showed that different exercise plans had greater benefits than no invention group in improving pain, physical function, and disease activity, especially in some studies that involve ankylosing spondylitis patients receiving home-based exercise. Different kinds of exercises are efficacious and should be recommended to AS patients. But, according to our current knowledge, no clear protocols regarding the effectiveness of hippotherapy in AS patients. This study aims to investigate the effect of the therapeutic horseback riding therapy via a mechanical simulator on disease-specific outcomes and muscle strength of ankylosing spondylitis patients.
This study evaluates the fingernail findings of the rheumatoid arthritis, spondylopathy and psoriatic arthritis patient groups with the fingernails of psoriasis patients clinically and dermatoscopically and investigates the benefit of dermoscopy in the differentiation of these patients.
Randomized controlled trial to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of an intervention combining patient initiated care and telemonitoring through the online eHealth platform SpA-Net versus standard care for patients with spondyloarthritis.
The prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases has not yet been widely reported, and has been evaluated only in symptomatic patient samples. The proportion of asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic patients is unknown, in patients who share common symptoms with CoV-2-SARS infection. Our objective is to describe the prevalence of seroconversion to CoV-2-SARS by consecutive screening in routine care of patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatism with serological testing
In this open-label, multi-center, observational, post-marketing surveillance study, patients with ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, or rheumatoid arthritis received biosimilar etanercept 25 mg twice weekly or 50 mg once weekly in real-world settings. Safety and effectiveness of biosimilar etanercept were evaluated in study participants for a duration of up to 12 months.
