The roles of sex, Perceived Pain and illness Perceptions on Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background: In the “treating to target” strategy to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management, “cognitive” beyond “physical” measures allow a more comprehensive assessment. This study reports a predictive analysis of patient properties on Disease Activity, and the degree to which these predictions could be uniquely attributable to Illness perception (IP), pain, and sex differences. Methods: This cr...
متن کاملThe Association between Depression and vitamin D level with disease activity in patient with rheumatoid arthritis
Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic rheumatologic disease, affecting different aspects of patient life. Although several studies have reported a higher rate of depression among patients with RA, there is still controversy over the underlying risk factors and probable covariates of depression in these individuals. The present study investigated the relationship between disease a...
متن کاملFinal validation of a new composite disease activity score for juvenile idiopathic arthritis: the Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS)
Materials and methods The JADAS is composed of the following measures: 1) physician's global assessment (0–10); 2) parent's global assessment (0–10); 3) active joint count (assessed in 71, 27 or 10 joints); 4) ESR (normalized to 0–10). It yields a score ranging from 0 to 40, 57 or 101, depending on whether the whole 71-joint count (JADAS-71) or the 27joint (JADAS-27) or 10-joint (JADAS-10) redu...
متن کاملDoes the multi-biomarker disease activity score have diagnostic value in early rheumatoid arthritis and unclassified arthritis?
The 2010 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) / European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) updated classification criteria for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) focus on identifying patients at early disease stage. They facilitate early implementation of RA disease-modifying therapy, which has been associated with improved clinical and structural outcomes. 3 Some patients with inflammatory oligoarthr...
متن کاملJuvenile arthritis disease activity score is a better reflector of active disease than the disease activity score 28 in adults with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis
A considerable proportion of children with polyarticular juven-ile idiopathic arthritis (polyJIA) experience active disease into adulthood. However, there is no validated disease activity measure for adults with polyJIA, and they are often assessed using the disease activity score 28 (DAS28). DAS28 is validated in adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and determines qualification for biologica...
