A simplified disease activity index for rheumatoid arthritis for use in clinical practice [PDF]

Rheumatology, 2003
The objective of this study was to verify the usefulness of a simple disease activity index (SDAI) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).The SDAI is the numerical sum of five outcome parameters: tender and swollen joint count (based on a 28-joint assessment), patient and physician global assessment of disease activity [visual analogue scale (VAS) 0-10 cm] and ...

Use of Clinical Disease Activity Index Score for Assessment of Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: An Indian Experience [PDF]

Arthritis, 2011
Introduction. Serial objective assessment of disease activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is imperative to achieve remission. The CDAI score appears more practical than DAS-28 in routine assessment of disease activity in RA patients. Objective. To evaluate correlation and agreement of the DAS-28 with CDAI in RA patients. Methods.

Correlation of disease activity score using erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein with clinical disease activity index in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Indian Journal of Rheumatology, 2019
Background: Most patients coming to government hospital are from lower socioeconomic class and do not always get investigations done like ESR or CRP. A purely clinical index like CDAI would be a useful measure in such resource poor settings.

Comparison of an administrative algorithm for SLE disease severity to clinical SLE Disease Activity Index scores [PDF]

Rheumatology International, 2019
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) severity, reflecting both disease intensity and duration, is heterogeneous making it challenging to study in administrative databases where severity may confound or mediate associations with outcomes. Garris et al. developed an administrative claims-based algorithm employing claims over a 1-year period to classify SLE

Simplified disease activity index and clinical disease activity index before and during pregnancy correlate with those at postpartum in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Modern Rheumatology, 2020
We explored rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity before, during, and after pregnancy in patients treated with tight control and investigated the association between disease activity in the postpartum period and those before and during pregnancy. We retrospectively reviewed disease activity and medications of 27 patients before pregnancy, at every

Clinical and demographic factors associated with change and maintenance of disease severity in a large registry of patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background We examined models to predict disease activity transitions from moderate to low or severe and associated factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Data from RA patients enrolled in the Corrona registry (October 2001 to August
