چکیده
Methods 1124 visits in 255 JIA patients were evaluated. Correlations of JADAS-27 (range 0-57) with JADAS-10, JADAS-71, core-set criteria, Disease Activity Index (DAS-28), and Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) were analyzed in the total group and treatment groups. Responsiveness to minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was analyzed longitudinally. Worsening was defined as a flare with at least 20% PGA and 15% ESR increase, as well as starting therapy, or drug dosage escalation. Improvement was defined as reaching ACRped50 or as reduction of medication.

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...
