Spondyloarthropathies That Mimic Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Narrative Review

Clinical Medicine Insights: Arthritis and Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Ankylosing spondylitis is the most common type of seronegative inflammatory spondyloarthropathy often presenting with low back or neck pain, stiffness, kyphosis and fractures that are initially missed on presentation; however, there are other ...

Similarities and Differences Between Juvenile and Adult Spondyloarthropathies

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) encompasses a broad spectrum of conditions occurring from childhood to middle age. Key features of SpA include axial and peripheral arthritis, enthesitis, extra-articular manifestations, and a strong association with HLA-B27 ...

Bilateral Brucellar Sacroiliitis Mimicking Tuberculous or Inflammatory Spondyloarthropathy: A Case Report. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection, endemic in rural areas. It is caused by Brucella species, which are transmitted through the intake of unpasteurized dairy products and contact with infected animals. Sacroiliac joint involvement is common in brucellosis and typically presents as unilateral sacroiliitis. Contrarily, bilateral sacroiliitis is

Decoding eQTLs: unraveling their role in spondyloarthropathies pathogenesis and potential therapeutics [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) represent genetic variants that influence gene expression, providing insights into the mechanisms linking genetic predisposition to complex diseases, including spondyloarthropathies (SpAs).

Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-like cytokine 1A and its receptors, death receptor 3 and decoy receptor 3, in patients with spondyloarthropathies: preliminary results from a cross-sectional study [PDF]

Rheumatology
Introduction Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like cytokine 1A (TL1A) is a member of the TNF superfamily of cytokines, involved in regulation of the immune and inflammatory response. Recently, therapies aimed at blockade of the TL1A pathway have shown benefit

Juvenile Spondyloarthropathies

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2016
Juvenile spondyloarthropathies represent a clinical entity separate from the adult disease. Initial clinical signs of juvenile spondyloarthropathies often include lower extremity arthritis and enthesopathy, without axial involvement at the disease onset.

Regulatory T cells in spondyloarthropathies: genetic evidence, functional role, and therapeutic possibilities

Frontiers in Immunology
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a very specialized subset of T lymphocytes: their main function is controlling immune responses during inflammation. T-regs involvement in autoimmune and immune-mediated rheumatic diseases is well-described.

A Probable Case of Postpartum Sacroiliac Joint Tuberculosis: The Diagnostic Value of Imaging in a High-Endemic Setting. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Tuberculous sacroiliitis is a rare form of osteoarticular tuberculosis and is particularly uncommon in the postpartum period. Its presentation is often nonspecific and can mimic more common postpartum musculoskeletal or infectious conditions, leading to delayed diagnosis, especially in high tuberculosis‐endemic regions. We report the case of a

Assessing the Impact of Crohn's Disease on Foot Health-Related Quality of Life: A Case-Control Study. [PDF]

Int Wound J
ABSTRACT Crohn's disease (CD) is primarily characterised by chronic gastrointestinal inflammation; however, its systemic nature frequently leads to musculoskeletal complications. Among these, clinically significant foot pathologies can impair mobility and negatively impact patients' overall quality of life.
