Active clinical trials for "Spondylitis"

This investigation aims to investigate the frequency of pes planus and posterior tibial tendon dysfunction in patients with ankylosing spondylitis.

Patients with ankylosing spondylitis were divided into 2 groups as anti-TNF and conventional therapy according to the treatments they were using for the last 5 years. Nerve conduction studies in the upper and lower extremities of the patients were compared.

The objective of this post-marketing observational study (PMOS) was to evaluate the effectiveness of adalimumab plus the AbbVie Care 2.0 patient support program in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), psoriasis (Ps), Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) in the routine clinical setting in Hungary.

The biopsychosocial model is well established in chronic low back pain (CLBP) research. Nevertheless, researchers to date have overlooked the biopsychosocial aspects of Inflammatory Low Back pain (ILBP). Most health care providers are biologically oriented in their treatment of ILBP, neglecting its possible multidimensional nature. It is true that people with ILBP may present with more complex pain and physical limitations than those with chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP), but it remains unexplored whether or not these limitations are affected by the same pain factors that affect CNSLBP patients. This study aims to explore and compare the biopsychosocial back pain profiles of adults with ILBP and CNSLBP.

The purpose of this non-interventional, multicenter, post-marketing observational study (PMOS) was to assess rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), plaque psoriasis (PS), Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) patients' adherence attitudes (beliefs) to maintenance therapy with adalimumab monotherapy or combination therapy with methotrexate (in participants with RA) and to investigate whether there were correlations between such beliefs and adherence to maintenance treatment.

The primary objectives of this study are to assess whether there is transfer of Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) into breast milk of lactating mothers who are receiving an established dosing regimen of CZP by evaluating the concentration of CZP in mature breast milk, and to calculate the daily infant dose of maternal CZP.

Treatment with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors, especially adalimumab, demonstrated an improvement in work productivity in participants with rheumatic diseases: rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Limited data was available for the effect of adalimumab treatment on sleep in all three diseases (RA, PsA, and AS) and no data was available for the effect of adalimumab treatment on work productivity in PsA. This long term Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) observational study was conducted to evaluate the effect of treatment with adalimumab on work productivity and sleep disturbance in Greek participants with moderate to severe rheumatic diseases (RA, PsA, and AS).

This postmarketing study was conducted to describe prescribing patterns for etoricoxib (ARCOXIA®) in General Practice and describe the incidence of selected adverse events recorded in the United Kingdom (UK) Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) General Practice Research Database (GPRD).

We aim to translate these findings into patients with rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions treated with anti-TNF (anti-tumor necrosis factor) therapy, such as psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Patients from rheumatology clinics within NHS (National Health Service) trusts will be recruited. We will correlate disease activity assessed by clinical parameters, ultrasonography, and questionnaires with biomarkers in the blood and target tissues, such as synovium and skin.

A randomised, within-participants cross-over design trial including 60 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis. The participants will be randomised to data registration of patient reported outcome measures (PROM) through the DANBIO app on a smartphone first and thereafter via the touch screen solution at the rheumatology outpatient clinic or vice versa. Outcomes are the following PROM: HAQ, VAS pain, VAS fatigue, VAS global Health, BASDAI, BASFI, PASS, Anchoring question, DAS28crp and ASDAS.
