Background. Early diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is yet not elucidated, with a potential diagnostic glance of microRNAs (miRNAs). Aim. Study the expression profile of miRNA-451a and miRNA-125a in AS patients and their impact on disease activity and prognosis. Methods. A cross-sectional study included 55 AS patients diagnosed according to modified New York criteria in 1984 with 55 matched healthy controls. History, clinical examination, and disease activity assessment with Bath ankylosing spondylitis disease activity index (BASDAI) were done. Full laboratory and radiological assessment along with expression profile of m iRNA-451a and miRNA-125a were tabulated and analyzed. Results. Higher expression levels of miRNA-125a and lower of miRNA-451a in AS patients compared to controls. Furthermore, miRNA-125a expression was high in active AS patients compared to inactive patients and controls ( 7.0 ± 3.4 vs. 4.1 ± 2.1 vs. 2.6 ± 0.6 , p < 0.001 , respectively). miRNA-451a was significantly lower in active AS patients compared to inactive patients and controls ( 2.2 ± 1.1 vs. 4.1 ± 2.3 vs. 7.1 ± 4.5 , respectively). Both miRNAs (miRNA-125a and miRNA-451a) had evident accuracy for AS diagnosis with areas under the curve (AUC) of 0.788 and 0.802, respectively. miRNA-125a had potential impact on AS activity with AUC of 0.777. Plasma levels of both miRNAs were able to distinguish AS patients with structural damage with AUCs 0.775 and 0.692, respectively. Conclusions. Both miRNA-451a and miRNA-125a were found to be of great value as sensitive noninvasive diagnostic, prognostic, and disease burden biomarker of AS patients in Egypt with suggested further studies for future therapeutic implications.

Preclinical Atherosclerosis

Objective.Epidemiological studies recently confirmed the increased risk of vascular morbidity and mortality during ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Increase of intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery is a useful and noninvasive marker of preclinical atherosclerosis. The aim of our study was to compare IMT in patients with AS with matched controls and to determine risk factors of atherosclerosis related to AS.Methods.We performed a prospective study of 60 consecutive patients meeting modified New York criteria for AS, compared to 60 controls matched for age and sex. Disease-specific measures were determined. Measurement of IMT was performed by the same radiologist using the same machine and probe in right and left common carotid arteries, and the average of the 2 measurements was considered.Results.In total 48 male and 12 female patients were recruited, and 60 corresponding controls; mean age was 36 ± 11 years. We found significantly increased IMT in the AS group (0.51 ± 0.12 mm) compared with controls (0.39 ± 0.09 mm; p = 0.001). After adjustment for confounding factors, increased IMT was still present (p = 0.003). Age at onset of AS (p = 0.001), Bath AS Disease Activity Index (p = 0.002), AS Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR; p = 0.047), ASDAS C-reactive protein (CRP; p = 0.012), Bath AS Functional Index (p = 0.008), global spine visual analog scale for pain (p = 0.000), Schober index (p = 0.039), Bath AS Metrology Index (p = 0.028), modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score (p = 0.035), and high ESR (p = 0.001) and CRP (p = 0.000) were correlated with high IMT in patients with AS. Otherwise, status of arthritis (p = 0.442), enthesitis (p = 0.482), and HLA-B27 (p = 0.528) seemed to have no effect on IMT.Conclusion.AS is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis independent of traditional risk factors. Disease activity, functional and mobility limitations, structural damage, and inflammation are the most incriminated risk factors.

Objective.Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is the second most frequent inflammatory rheumatic disease, characterized by spinal involvement, peripheral arthritis, or enthesitis with marked pain, stiffness, and fatigue. Fibromyalgia (FM) may be associated with SpA, and shares some common symptoms. We aimed to determine how FM influences assessment of SpA disease activity, which is mainly dependent on patient-based outcome measures such as the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) or the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS).Methods.This single-center cross-sectional study included consecutive patients with SpA according to the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society criteria. FM was diagnosed according to the 1990 American College of Rheumatology criteria. Patient characteristics, BASDAI, ASDAS/C-reactive protein (CRP), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index, and the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 questionnaire were recorded and compared.Results.The study included 103 patients with SpA; 81 with axial and 22 with peripheral forms. Eighteen patients presented with concomitant FM, of whom 12 had axial SpA and 6 peripheral SpA. Demographic characteristics did not differ except for sex, with a female predominance in the FM group that was more marked in peripheral forms. BASDAI was higher in patients with FM [median (IQR): 4.2 (4.2) vs 2.2 (3.1); p = 0.0068], whereas ASDAS-CRP was not significantly different [median (IQR): 2.7 (2) vs 2 (1.3); p = 0.1264]. Nevertheless, median ASDAS-CRP corresponded to high disease activity in patients with SpA or FM compared with moderate activity in non-FM patients.Conclusion.FM is a frequent comorbidity in patients with SpA, especially in peripheral forms. In patients with SpA-FM, disease activity may be overestimated when measured by BASDAI and to a lesser extent by ASDAS-CRP, and this overestimation could lead to inappropriate treatment escalation.

Objective.The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of radiographic spinal progression and disease activity on function and spinal mobility in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) treated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) inhibitors for up to 10 years.Methods.Patients with AS who participated in 2 longterm open-label extensions of clinical trials with TNF-α inhibitors (43 receiving infliximab and 17 receiving etanercept) were included in this analysis based on the availability of spinal radiographs performed at baseline and at a later timepoint (yr 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10) during followup. Spinal radiographs were scored according to the modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score (mSASSS). Function was assessed by the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), spinal mobility by the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI), and disease activity by the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI).Results.After the initial improvement, BASFI and BASMI remained remarkably stable at low levels over up to 10 years despite radiographic spinal progression. In the generalized mixed effects model analysis, no association between the mSASSS and the BASFI change (β = 0.0, 95% CI −0.03 to 0.03) was found, while there was some effect of mSASSS changes on BASMI changes over time (β = 0.05, 95% CI 0.01–0.09). BASDAI showed a strong association with function (β = 0.64, 95% CI 0.54–0.73) and to a lesser extent, with spinal mobility (β = 0.14, 95% CI 0.01–0.26).Conclusion.Functional status and spinal mobility of patients with established AS remained stable during longterm anti-TNF-α therapy despite radiographic progression. This indicates that reduction and continuous control of inflammation might be able to outweigh the functional effect of structural damage progression in AS.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease that affects primarily sacroiliac joints and the spine. It is a gradually progressive condition over several years until structural damage manifests clinical- ly as sacroiliitis, loss of spinal mobility, extra-articular symptoms, peripheral arthritis and reduced quality of life. The onset is typically between the ages of 20 to 30, with a male preponderance of about 3:1. Modern science has very limited options to treat Ankylosing spondylitis. So, the necessity of management through Ayurveda is very much essential. Various Panchakarma procedures and internal Ayurvedic medicines have been proved beneficial in the management of Ankylosing spondylitis. The present report deals with a case of ‘Ankylosing spondylitis came to our hospital for Ayurvedic treatment. The patient was diagnosed as having 'Asthi-Majja Gata Vata’ ac- cording to Ayurveda and treated with various Panchakarma procedures and internal medicines for 60 days. A cri- terion of assessment was based on the scoring of 'Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI)'. Total two assessments were carried out before and after 60 days of treatment. The patient has shown good improvement on BASDAI (80% relief). Improvement was found in signs and symptoms like fa- tigue/tiredness, back/hip pain, tenderness and intensity as well as the duration of morning stiffness. Ayurvedic treatment seems to be promising in the management of Ankylosing spondylitis without causing any adverse effects.

Abstract Background: An increasing number of studies have applied ultrasound (US) to evaluate enthesitis in spondyloarthritis. However, there is no clear agreement on which sites should be evaluated for enthesitis. Furthermore, there are different opinions on whether US can monitor disease activity. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the common involvement of entheses and correlations between disease activity and US scores in ankylosing spondylitis (AS).Methods: A cross-sectional, monocentric, and controlled study was performed. US was used to scan 34 entheses per person and the Madrid sonography enthesitis index (MASEI) score was used. US scores were used to evaluate the elemental lesions of hypoechogenicity, thickness, erosion, calcification, bursitis, and Doppler signal. Disease activity was assessed by Disease Activity Score–C reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI).Results: 104 patients with AS and 50 control subjects were included. A total of 5236 entheses were assessed. Compared with the control subjects, only three entheses – the Achilles tendon (AT), sternoclavicular joint (SCJ), and costochondral joint (CCJ) – showed significant differences in the AS group (p < 0.05). Patients with high disease activity (ASDAS-CRP ≥ 2.1) had higher scores than patients with low activity (ASDAS-CRP < 2.1) in erosion (p = 0.02). Patients who were categorized in very high disease activity (ASDAS-CRP ≥ 3.5) had a higher score in erosion (p = 0.02). The erosion score was moderately associated with ASDAS-CRP and BASDAI (r = 0.44, r = 0.21).Conclusions: The commonly involved entheses were the AT, SCJ, and CCJ in AS. Erosion occurred more often in patients with disease activity or high activity. Erosion would be more useful for monitoring disease activity in AS.

We have read with great interest the recent editorial published in The Journal by Dr. Kiltz, et al, referring to the possibility of using the Spondyloarthritis international Society Health Index (ASAS HI) as an all-in-one in the assessment of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA)1. AxSpA has been evaluated over the years with different tools that have tried to determine the degree of activity [Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI)/Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS)], functional limitations (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index), mobility restrictions (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index), structural damage accumulated over time (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Radiology Index/modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spinal Score), or quality of life (Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life scale) of these patients.

Background:Symphysis pubic (SP) is the frequent site of enthesitis in spondylarthritis (SpA). Radiological changes in SP appear later in the course of the disease. Underdiagnosed, its prevalence varies from 4% to 47% (1), depending on imaging modalities.Objectives:This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of SP involvement in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA). We also focused on the relation between radiographical changes and clinical findings.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study, including patients with SpA according to the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) criteria. We collected the following data: age, gender, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS), and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI).Pelvic radiographs were examined by 2 experimented rheumatologists. Grading symphysial involvement was made as follow: scores ranged from 0-4 per reading: grade 0 = normal; grade 1 = subtle irregularity and/or subchondral sclerosis, grade 2 = clear erosions, 3 = marked sclerosis, grade 4 = ankylosis.We divided our patients into two groups: G0 patients without SP changes and G1 patients with SP changes.Results:One hundred and thirty-one patients were included, 84 were male, and 48 were female. The sex ratio M/F was 1.72. The mean age was 41.32±12.42 years. The mean disease duration was 12.65 ± 9.49 years. The clinical presentation of SpA was peripheral in 61 cases and axial in 118 cases. The mean disease scores activity was: BASDAI: 3.94±2.046 and ASDASCRP: 2.75±1.05. The mean BASFI was 4.17±2.7SP changes were observed in 31 patients: score 1 (n=14), score 2 (n=8), score 3 (n=8) and score 4 (n=4). Sex ratios M/F were 2.1 and 1.65 in G1 and G0, respectively (p=0.23). No statistically significant differences were reported between the two groups G0 and G1: mean age (40.48 vs. 43.45, p=0.324), mean disease duration (11.19 vs. 14.45, p=0.218), mean BASDAI (3.8 versus 3.9, p=0.850), mean ASDAS-ESR (3.09 vs. 2.55, p=0.113) and mean BASFI (3.76 versus 4.96, p=0.06) respectively. In G1, nine patients had hip involvement (p=0.203). Enthesitis was more common in patients with SP changes (p=0.02).Conclusion:In our study, the presence of enthesitis was associated with SP changes. Surprisingly, age and disease duration did not influence SP changes (1).References:[1]Kang Y, Ahn JM, Lee E, Lee JW, Kang HS.

Objective.To investigate the role of psychological variables in self-reported disease activity in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), while controlling for demographic and medical variables.Methods.Patients with AS (n = 294) meeting modified New York criteria completed psychological measures evaluating depression, resilience, active and passive coping, internality, and helplessness. Demographic, clinical, and radiologic data were also collected. Univariate and multivariate analyses were completed to determine the strength of the correlation of psychological variables with disease activity, as measured by the Bath AS Disease Activity Index (BASDAI).Results.In the multivariate regression analysis, the psychological variables contributed significantly to the variance in BASDAI scores, adding an additional 33% to the overall R-square beyond that accounted for by demographic and medical variables (combined R-square 18%). Specifically, arthritis helplessness and depression accounted for the most significant portion of the variance in BASDAI scores in the final model.Conclusion.Arthritis helplessness and depression accounted for significant variability in self-reported disease activity beyond clinical and demographic variables in patients with AS. These findings have important clinical implications in the treatment and monitoring of disease activity in AS, and suggest potential avenues of intervention.

Background:Standardization of clinical practice has been proven to be effective in management of chronic diseases. This is particularly true at the time where the concept of treat to target is becoming more and more important in the field of axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA).Objectives:To propose a list of variables to be collected at the time of the diagnosis and over the follow-up of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA) for an optimal management in daily practice.Methods:The process comprised (1) the evaluation of the interest of 51 variables proposed for the assessment of axSpA via a systematic literature research, (2) a consensus process involving 78 hospital-based or office-based rheumatologists, considering the collection of the variable in a 4 grade scale from ”potentially useful” to “mandatory”, (3) a consensus on optimal timeline for periodic assessment of the selected variables on a 5 grade scale from “at each visit” to “never to be re-collected”.Results:The systematic literature research retrieved a total of 14,133 abstracts, of which 213 were included in the final qualitative synthesis. Concerning the data to be collected at the time of the diagnosis and during follow-up, we proposed to differentiate the results based on a) the way of collection of the variables (e.g. questionnaires by the patient, interview by the physician, physical examination, investigations) b) the usefulness these variables in daily practice based on the opinion of the rheumatologists ” c) the optimal timeline between 2 evaluations of the variable based on the opinion of the rheumatologists. In the initial systematic review, symptoms of heart failure history of inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis or uveitis, patient global visual analogic scale, spine radiographs, modified Schöber test, coxo-femoral rotations, swollen joint count, urine strip test, BASDAI and ASDAS global scores were considered very useful and nocturnal back pain/morning stiffness, sacro-iliac joints radiographs and CRP were considered mandatory (Figure 1).
