Spondyloarthritis & psoriatic arthritis
Influence of sacroiliac joint variation on clinical features of axial spondyloarthritis: a comparative analysis
Authors' conclusion
Our analysis suggests that clinical phenotypes do not significantly differ between patients with axSpA with and without atypical joints.
Study context
- Population
- Patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) from four prospective clinical cohorts86 women
- Participants
- 165 patients
- Comparison
- axSpA with atypical sacroiliac (SI) joints vs without atypical SI joints
- Atypical SI jointsn = 61
Methodological detailspropensity score matched, Bonferroni correction for multiple testing
- Propensity score matched
- Bonferroni correction for multiple testing
Primary result
As reported in the abstract
Clinical phenotype of axSpA
- Clinical phenotypes do not significantly differ between patients with and without atypical joints
Further findings
Symptom duration
P = 0.838
- Symptom duration: group order of the two values as printed; the abstract does not name which group each value belongs to
Symptom duration
- Symptom duration similar in both groups
Inflammatory back pain (IBP)
- No significant difference in IBP between the groups
Sex-stratified analysis
- No statistically significant results
