Vaspin rs35262691 Is Associated with Atherosclerotic Disease in Axial Spondyloarthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Vaspin is a novel adipokine with insulin-sensitizing functions that exerts anti-inflammatory actions1,2. It has been associated with cardiovascular (CV) disease, CV risk factors and…Abstract Number: 1509 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Impact of Age and Disease Duration on the Response to IL-17A Inhibitor (Secukinumab) Treatment in Ankylosing Spondylitis: Pooled Results from the Phase 3 MEASURE Studies
Background/Purpose: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a chronic inflammatory disease involving the sacroiliac joints and spine, is associated with pain, stiffness, disability, and reduced quality of life.1,2…Abstract Number: 2212 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis Have Abnormal Microarchitecture Despite Normal Areal Bone Mineral Density and Trabecular Bone Score by DXA
Background/Purpose: Axial Spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is characterized by abnormal bone formation that produces syndesmophytes, while paradoxically, inflammation causes increased bone resorption and skeletal fragility. Detection of…Abstract Number: 14 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
Sec16A Abnormalities Affect the Intracellular Trafficking of HLA-B27 in the Pathogenesis of Axial Spondyloarthritis
Background/Purpose: Axial Spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis, mainly affecting the axial skeleton. HLA-B27 confers the greatest genetic association in AxSpA. Exome sequencing in…Abstract Number: 590 • 2019 ACR/ARP Annual Meeting
What Is the Impact of MRI on the Performance of the ASAS Classification Criteria in Patients Presenting with Undiagnosed Back Pain?
Background/Purpose: Classification criteria for axSpA comprise an imaging and a clinical arm, the former requiring radiographic or MRI evidence of sacroiliitis. Several cohorts have reported…Abstract Number: 660 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Progression of Radiographic Sacroiliitis in Patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis from the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society Cohort on Central Reading – Five-Year Data
Background/Purpose: It is known that radiographic progression of sacroiliitis in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is quite slow, with only few predictors of such progression identified. An…Abstract Number: 1658 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Which Factors Influence the Diagnostic Delay in Patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis?
Background/Purpose: The interval from symptom onset till diagnosis in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) was reported a decade ago to be between five and ten years. The…Abstract Number: 661 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
