Objective To develop new composite disease activity indices for psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Methods Data from routine clinic visits at multiple centres were collected in a systematic manner. included all domains identified as important randomised controlled trials PsA. Decisions to change treatment used surrogates high activity. New developed by linear regression (psoriatic score: PASDAS) and empirically, utilising physician-defined cut-offs (arithmetic mean of desirability functions: AMDF)....
Objective. During OMERACT 8, delegates selected patient global assessment (PGA) of disease as a domain to be evaluated in randomized controlled trials psoriatic arthritis (PsA). This study assessed the reliability PGA, measured by means 0–100 mm visual analog scale (VAS), and additional utility separate VAS scales for joints (PJA) skin (PSA). Methods. In total, 319 consecutive patients with PsA (186 men, 133 women, mean age 51 ± 13 yrs) were enrolled. PJA, PSA administered at enrolment (W0)...
Objectives To evaluate risk factors associated with unfavourable outcomes: emergency care, hospitalisation, admission to intensive care unit (ICU), mechanical ventilation and death in patients immune-mediated rheumatic disease (IMRD) COVID-19. Methods Analysis of the first 8 weeks observational multicentre prospective cohort study (ReumaCoV Brasil register). Patients IMRD COVID-19 according Ministry Health criteria were classified as eligible for study. Results 334 participants enrolled, a...
Geographic tongue (GT) and fissured (FT) are the more frequent oral lesions in patients with psoriasis. The aims of this study were to compare prevalence GT/FT between psoriasis group (PG) healthy controls (HC) investigate correlation severity using PASI age onset. Three hundred forty‐eight PG 348 HC selected. According onset, individuals classified as having early late vulgaris was determined according PASI. A follow‐up conducted (PV) GT evaluate progression cutaneous lesions. FT than HC....
Objective. To determine the prevalence of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in a large cohort Brazilian patients with psoriasis (PsO) being seen at dermatology centers. Methods. A multicenter study was conducted 4 university clinics. In each center, consecutive confirmed diagnoses PsO were evaluated by rheumatologist. Individuals classified as having PsA according to ClASsification criteria for Psoriatic ARthritis (CASPAR). Laboratory tests and radiographs performed, needed, based on clinical...
Abstract Background Despite metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) being an effective treatment for clinically severe obesity, some patients experience insufficient weight loss (IWL) regain (WR). MBS also has a significant impact on obesity-related comorbidities, perhaps not reflected in categorical definitions of IWL WR. Therefore, success should only be measured by percentage change. Our study aims to investigate whether the anthropometric criteria used determine unsuccessful have clinical...
Abstract Background Despite the benefits of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS), not all patients can maintain sustained weight loss in long term. There is increasing awareness that regain (WR) a common issue following MBS. However, WR defined using various criteria, which makes it challenging to understand its prevalence clinical impact after As result, factors contribute before, during, are well understood. This study aims assess at two-years surgery, four definitions, identify...
Objective. To analyze the clinical effect of enthesitis in a large Brazilian cohort patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA). Methods. A common protocol investigation was prospectively applied to 1505 SpA 29 centers Brazil. Clinical and demographic variables disease indexes were investigated. The Maastricht Ankylosing Spondylitis Enthesitis Score used investigate component. spondylitis most frequent group (65.4%). Others psoriatic arthritis (18.4%), undifferentiated (6.7%), reactive (3.3%),...
Abstract Background Few studies have examined the clinical features of geographic tongue ( GT ), an inflammatory lesion, making diagnosis and investigation oral psoriasis difficult. Purpose To investigate to facilitate its identification understand relationship with psoriasis. Methods A total 96 participants diagnosed underwent stomatological dermatological examinations. The parameters assessed were burning sensation; number, classification, location lesions; loss papillae; severity...
