Relationship between enthesitis, clinical parameters and quality of life in spondyloarthritis

Enthesitis and its relationships with disease parameters in Moroccan patients with ankylosing spondylitis

“…This result is consistent with other studies [13,14,16]. Bejia et al [18] found a very low correlation between MASES and ESR (P = 0.04).…”

“…The relationship between disease activity and enthesitis has been reported by several studies; this concord with our results [14,16,17]. Indeed, the relation between BASDAI and enthesitis indexes is probably due to the question related to enthesopathy which BASDAI covers.…”

“…The most frequent regions of enthesopathies were costochondral joints, calcaneal insertions and Achilles tendons. Similar results were reported by Turan et al, who used only MEI in his data, and others authors concerning MASES [14,15].…”

“…In our data, no signiWcant relationship was found with that parameter. In fact, enthesitis is widely observed in all stages of the disease whatever its evolution [14,15]. Also, no relationship between morning stiVness and the severity of enthesitis was reported in our study.…”

Health-related quality of life and disease burden of psoriasis in Iran

“…Secondarily, our objective was to complement the previous COI review The search resulted 39 hits, however 15 studies were excluded as these did not focus on psoriasis (N=8) (Borman et al, 2007, Esmail et al, 2015, Guler et al, 2015, Nas et al, 2017, Saad et al, 2011, Talli et al, 2016, Turan et al, 2009, Ullbro et al, 2003, were neither HRQOL nor cost-of-illness studies (N=4) (Ammar-Khodja et al, 2015, Demirel et al, 2013, El-Darouti et al, 2015, Gokdemir et al, 2008, did not report original studies (N=2) or were not from the selected 20 countries (N=1). (Mork et al, 2004) None of the studies reported COI results in psoriasis.…”
