Respiratory muscle strength but not BASFI score relates to diminished chest expansion in ankylosing spondylitis

Clinical Rheumatology, 2004
Pulmonary function is altered in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) owing mainly to the restriction of chest wall involvement (limited chest expansion). The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between chest expansion, respiratory muscle strength (MIP, MEP) maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV), and BASFI score in patients with AS. Twenty-

High intraindividual week-to-week variability in BASDAI and BASFI values: Are several evaluations needed before starting or stopping TNFα antagonist therapy for spondyloarthropathies?

Joint Bone Spine, 2008
To evaluate intraindividual variability of the BASDAI, BASFI, and HAQ in patients with spondyloarthropathies.The three variables were collected prospectively in 24 patients, once a week for 30 weeks. They were also collected retrospectively in 31 patients on stable infliximab regimens with a mean of 11.5+/-4 injections, starting at the fourth infusion ...

The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Activity and Function Indices (BASDAI and BASFI) and their correlation with main symptoms experienced by patients with spondyloarthritis

Clinical Rheumatology, 2010
With the aim of assessing whether the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Activity and Function Indices (BASDAI and BASFI) are reliable measures of disease activity and function in patients with spondyloarthritides (SpAs), 341 patients with SpA (representing ankylosing spondylitis (14.5%), psoriatic arthritis (27.3%), enteropathic arthritis (6.3%), reactive ...

Bath ankylosing spondylitis functional index (BASFI) evaluation of postoperative patients with OPLL

Journal of Orthopaedic Science, 2004
Although surgical decompression of the involved spinal cord achieves a good recovery of neurological conditions, one of the most important complaints of patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is disability as a result of spinal immobility.

Evaluation of the Finnish Versions of the Functional Indices BASFI and DFI in Spondylarthropathy

Clinical Rheumatology, 2000
The aim of the study was to compare and evaluate the usefulness of Finnish versions of two functional indices used in spondylarthropathies. Seventy consecutive inpatients with different kinds of spondylarthropathies filled in self-administered questionnaires: the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) and the Dougados Functional Index for

FRI0285 Depression is associated with higher BASDAI and BASFI but not ASDAS

Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2012
Background The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) and the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index using C-reactive protein/Erythrocyte sedimentation rate base (ASDAS-CRP/ASDAS-ESR) are validated instruments for measuring disease activity in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and other spondyloarthritis (SpA).

Instrumented BASFI (iBASFI) Shows Promising Reliability and Validity in the Assessment of Activity Limitations in Axial Spondyloarthritis

The Journal of Rheumatology, 2016
Objective.The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) is the most popular method to assess activity capacity in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), to our knowledge. It is endorsed by the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis international Society. But it may have recall bias or aberrant self-judgments in individual patients. Therefore, we aimed to

Evaluation einer deutschen Version des Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) und Dougados Functional Index (D-FI)

Zeitschrift f�r Rheumatologie, 1999
Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war die transkulturelle Adaptation des „Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index“ (BASFI) und des „Dougados Funktionsindex“ (D-FI). Nach der Ubersetzung und Ruckubersetzung erfolgte die Testung der Verteilungsmuster der Fragebogen, der internen Konsistenz (Cronbach‘s Koeffizient alpha), der Test ...
