DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP - are they Interchangeable in Measuring the Activity of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Response to Treatment with Biological Agents? [PDF]
Folia Medica, 2020 Introduction: The European League Against Rheumatism updates the recommendations for managing rheumatoid arthritis. Again, it is not specified which DAS28 is there in view (with erythrocyte sedimentation rate or C-reactive protein). Aim: The aim of the study is to check whether Disease Activity Score-28 (erythrocyte ...

Visualization of DAS28, SDAI, and CDAI: the magic carpets of rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Clinical Rheumatology, 2014 There has been continuous debate regarding the applicability of various composite measures for the assessment of disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In order to further dissect this issue, we numerically and graphically modeled 28-joint disease activity scale (DAS28), simplified disease activity index (SDAI), and clinical disease activity ...

Is DAS28 an appropriate tool to assess remission in rheumatoid arthritis? [PDF]
Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2005 To study which cut off point of DAS28 corresponds to fulfilment of the American Rheumatism Association (ARA) preliminary remission criteria, and clinical remission criteria in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).All adult patients diagnosed with RA at Jyväskylä Central Hospital 1997-98 were assessed for remission at 5 years.

AB0305 Remaining foot synovitis may predict relapse in rheumatoid arthritis patients in das28 remission (DAS28-CRP<2.3) [PDF]
Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2018 Background DAS28 (Disease Activity Score based on 28 joints) is widely used to determine remission in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The problems with DAS28 due to omission of the lower extremity joints have long been discussed. There are reports demonstrating that some patients meeting DAS28 remission criteria still have synovitis in their feet.1 It is ...

Individual therapeutic DAS28-dcrit responses differentiate between effectiveness of rheumatoid arthritis therapies and reflect patient-reported outcomes: retrospective analysis of DAS28 responses in comparative tocilizumab studies [PDF]
Rheumatology International, 2020 AbstractAssessment of individual therapeutic responses provides valuable information concerning treatment benefits in individual patients. We evaluated individual therapeutic responses as determined by the Disease Activity Score-28 joints critical difference for improvement (DAS28-dcrit) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with intravenous ...

Validation of methods for converting the original Disease Activity Score (DAS) to the DAS28 [PDF]
Rheumatology International, 2018 The Disease Activity Score (DAS) is integral in tailoring the clinical management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and is an important measure in clinical research. Different versions have been developed over the years to improve reliability and ease of use.

The validity of a rheumatoid arthritis medical records-based index of severity compared with the DAS28 [PDF]
Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2006 AbstractThe objective of this work was to assess the convergent validity of a previously developed rheumatoid arthritis medical records-based index of severity (RARBIS) by comparing it with the 28-joint Disease Activity Score (DAS28). This study was conducted in subjects within the Brigham and Women's Hospital Rheumatoid Arthritis Sequential Study ...

The Utility and Limitations of CRP, ESR and DAS28-CRP in Appraising Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]
Frontiers in Medicine, 2018 Introduction: Identifying and quantifying inflammatory disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis remains a challenge. Many studies have suggested that a large proportion of patients may have active inflammation, but normal inflammatory markers. Although various disease activity scores have been validated, most rely to a large degree on biomarkers such ...

Role of Diet in Influencing DAS28 Score in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Journal of Health and Rehabilitation ResearchBackground: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory condition that significantly impacts quality of life. Emerging evidence suggests that dietary modifications can influence disease activity and mental health in RA patients.Objective: To investigate the effect of dietary patterns on disease activity, depression, and anxiety in patients with
