AB0703 WHICH OF THE ASDAS OR BASDAI CORRELATES BETTER WITH PHYSICIAN GLOBAL ASSESSMENT? [PDF]
Background: Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity score (ASDAS) was developed because of the limitations of Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Index (BASDAI) of being totally patient-derived with limited face and construct validity. ASDAS includes inflammatory markers that were aimed to increase its face validity by representing a different ...

Preliminary definitions of ‘flare’ in axial spondyloarthritis, based on pain, BASDAI and ASDAS-CRP: an ASAS initiative [PDF]
Flares may be used as outcomes in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) trials or observational studies. The objective was to develop a definition for 'flare' (or worsening) in axSpA, based on validated composite indices, to be used in the context of clinical trial design.(1) Systematic literature review of definitions of 'flare' in published randomised ...

Axial spondyloarthritis in men and women
The work of recent decades has changed the idea that axial spondylitis (axSpA) is an exclusively “male” disease. However, at present, when deciding on further treatment tactics, gender differences in the course of the disease and response to treatment ...
