Abstract

Background: The objective of this study was to investigate the correlation between the 7-joint ultrasound score (US7) and disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods: Forty-four patients with active RA were assessed, and the correlation between US7 and disease activity indicators such as the disease activity score (DAS28), rheumatoid factor (RF), the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) was analyzed. In addition, the proportions of US7 points accounted for by different joint regions and joint surfaces were analyzed.

Results: RF, CRP, and ESR were significantly increased in the RA group compared with the control group (P < 0.05). In the RA group, DAS28 (r = 0.0.561, P < 0.01), RF (r = 0.635, P < 0.01), ESR (r = 0.585, P < 0.01), and CRP (r = 0.492, P < 0.01) were positively correlated with US7. In terms of contributions to US7, the most susceptible joint surface is the dorsal surface, and the most susceptible joint area is the dorsal wrist.

Conclusion: US7 is positively correlated with disease activity indicators of RA, which can objectively reflect disease activity in RA patients and provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and efficacy evaluation.

类风湿性关节炎患者的 7 关节超声评分与疾病活动度之间的相关性研究

背景：本研究旨在探讨类风湿性关节炎（RA）患者的7关节超声评分（US7）与疾病活动性之间的相关性：本研究旨在探讨类风湿关节炎（RA）患者的7关节超声评分（US7）与疾病活动度之间的相关性：对44名活动性RA患者进行了评估，并分析了US7与疾病活动性评分（DAS28）、类风湿因子（RF）、红细胞沉降率（ESR）和C反应蛋白（CRP）等疾病活动性指标之间的相关性。此外，还分析了不同关节区域和关节表面所占 US7 点的比例：结果：与对照组相比，RA 组的 RF、CRP 和 ESR 均明显升高（P < 0.05）。在 RA 组中，DAS28（r = 0.0.561，P <0.01）、RF（r = 0.635，P <0.01）、ESR（r = 0.585，P <0.01）和 CRP（r = 0.492，P <0.01）与 US7 呈正相关。从对 US7 的贡献来看，最易受影响的关节表面是背侧，最易受影响的关节区域是腕背侧：结论：US7 与 RA 的疾病活动性指标呈正相关，可客观反映 RA 患者的疾病活动性，为临床诊断和疗效评估提供参考。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Medical Ultrasound is the peer-reviewed publication of the Asian Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology, and the Chinese Taipei Society of Ultrasound in Medicine. Its aim is to promote clinical and scientific research in ultrasonography, and to serve as a channel of communication among sonologists, sonographers, and medical ultrasound physicians in the Asia-Pacific region and wider international community. The Journal invites original contributions relating to the clinical and laboratory investigations and applications of ultrasonography.
