Abstract Objectives. The aim of this paper is to compare the degree of accuracy between the BASDAI and mini-BASDAI indices in assessing the activity of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), especially in patients without peripheral manifestations.

Eligibility criteria for biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in axial spondyloarthritis: going beyond BASDAI [PDF]
Objectives To compare definitions of high disease activity of the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) in selecting patients for treatment with biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs).

Defining Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index Cut-off Values for Disease Activity States in a Multinational European Cohort of Patients With Axial Spondyloarthritis. [PDF]
Objective The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) is widely used for assessing disease activity in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), particularly in settings where markers of inflammation are unavailable. As no consensus on BASDAI cut‐off values exists for disease activity states in axSpA, we aimed to develop and ...

Construct validity of Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) and Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) treatment target cut-offs in a BASDAI treat-to-target axial spondyloarthritis cohort: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
In axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) and Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) are recommended for use in treat-to-target (T2T) strategies. However, BASDAI disease states may be a less suitable T2T instrument than ASDAS, since BASDAI contains non-disease activity related ...

How to calculate the ASDAS based on C-reactive protein without individual questions from the BASDAI: the BASDAI-based ASDAS formula [PDF]
Abstract Objectives To develop a new equation to calculate the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score based on CRP (ASDAS-CRP) using only the BASDAI total score and CRP. Methods Axial SpA (axSpA) patients from the Cordoba ...

ObjectivesThe Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) has been widely utilized to evaluate disease activity in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) by an arbitrary cut-off of ≥4 to indicate high disease activity and initiate ...

OP0051 LOOKING BEYOND BASDAI TOTAL SCORES: ANALYSIS OF THE BASDAI ON THE BASIS OF SEX [PDF]
Background: Females with axial spondyloarthropathy (axSpA) average scores on patient reported outcomes (PROs) than males. However, this does not necessarily correlate to worse clinical findings. The Ankylosing Spondylitis Registry of Ireland (ARSI) is a national registry on patients with axSpA in Ireland and a source of epidemiological data ...

AB0865 Do asas, asdas and basdai therapy response evaluation translate the same information? [PDF]
Background The ASAS-EULAR recommendations for the continuation of biological Disease-Modifying Anti-rheumatic Drugs (DMARD) suggest the evaluation of patients after at least 12 weeks of treatment by either the Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) Disease Activity Score – C reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) or by the Bath AS Disease Activity Index (BASDAI).

Low BASDAI score alone is not a good predictor of anti-tumor necrosis factor treatment efficacy in ankylosing spondylitis: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Background The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of high disease activity as measured using the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS) in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients who nonetheless have low Bath Ankylosing ...
