The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) constituents and the development of clinical arthritis in ACPA-positive patients with musculoskeletal pain.Method: We prospectively followed 82 ACPA-positive patients with musculoskeletal pain but no baseline arthritis during a median of 72 months (interquartile range 57-81 months). The primary outcome was arthritis development, as judged by clinical examination. SPE constituents were evaluated in baseline sera by immunoturbidimetric methods. Serum levels of the analysed proteins (albumin, orosomucoid, α1-anti-trypsin, haptoglobin, and immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, and IgM) were related to arthritis development by Cox regression analyses.Results: During the follow-up period, 39/82 patients (48%) progressed to arthritis. Median baseline levels of orosomucoid and α1-anti-trypsin were higher in patients who developed arthritis than in those who did not (p = 0.04), while median albumin levels were significantly lower (p = 0.03). Immunoglobulin levels did not differ between the groups. Univariable analysis demonstrated a significantly increased risk of arthritis with elevated baseline haptoglobin [hazard ratio (HR) 2.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.32-4.85, p = 0.005] and orosomucoid levels (HR 2.63, 95% CI 1.09-6.31, p = 0.03). However, neither remained significant in multivariable analysis adjusting for elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels.Conclusion: SPE does not add prognostic value for arthritis development in ACPA-positive patients with musculoskeletal pain.","PeriodicalId":21424,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"118-122"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139425372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The construct validity of the ASAS HI was tested using Spearman correlation with standard health outcomes for axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Reliability was analysed by internal consistency with the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for ASAS HI, and test-retest reliability with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) for ASAS HI and kappa agreement for the individual items of EFIS.Results: The translation of EFIS showed acceptable face and content validity. ASAS HI showed an acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha 0.79), and excellent test-retest reliability (ICC 0.87). Test-retest reliability for EFIS showed varied results, with kappa agreement for the individual items ranging from poor (-0.027) to good (0.80).Conclusions: The Swedish version of ASAS HI proved to be valid and reliable and is recommended for assessing the impact of AS on global functioning and health.

Following the guidelines helps to maintain the content validity of the questionnaire and secures a translation that is both literally and culturally appropriate for the target population.Results: All four items were modified throughout the translation process, involving mainly minor changes such as the addition of more colloquial words in the Danish version.

Mann-Whitney U-test was used to assess differences in OST score between RA patients and controls. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC), linear regression and generalized estimating equations analysis were used to assess the discriminative capability of OST and the association of OST score with clinical disease parameters, ultrasound, radiographic features and cardiovascular risk parameters.Results: Median OST score was higher in RA patients than in controls [16.9 (interquartile range 12.77-19.7) vs 12.11 (10.32-14.93)]. At patient level, OST score was moderately associated with ultrasound [beta 0.38 (95% CI 0.16-0.60), p = 0.001] and clinical disease activity [28-joint Disease Activity Score-C-reactive protein beta 0.30 (95% CI 0.04- 0.57), p = 0.024] in RA patients. In controls, male sex, high body mass index, and hypertension were associated with higher OST scores, while these associations were absent in RA. At joint level, the area under the ROC curve for OST score, with ultrasound or clinical swelling as reference, ranged from 0.63 to 0.70. Joint-space narrowing and malalignment were associated with higher OST joint scores, and subchondral sclerosis with lower scores.Conclusion: OST provides an objective measure of synovitis and correlates moderately with other examined disease activity assessment tools. Clinical patient characteristics must be considered when interpreting the results.","PeriodicalId":21424,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"85-93"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9562122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

General practice units were randomized into CS or usual care (UC). Economic evaluation was performed from the healthcare and societal perspectives within a 12-month time horizon. Outcome measures encompassed disability [Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ)] and health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-3L). Direct medical (iMTA Medical Consumption Questionnaire) and indirect costs (iMTA Productivity Cost Questionnaire), including productivity loss, were evaluated. Incremental cost-utility ratios (ICURs) were calculated.Results: The study included 90 GP clusters with 563 patients (CS: n = 260; UC: n = 303) (mean ± sd age 36.3 ± 7.5 years; 66% female). After 12 months, no minimal important differences in outcomes were observed for RMDQ (-0.21, 95%CI -1.52 to 1.13) or EQ-5D (-0.02, 95%CI -0.08 to 0.05). However, total costs were significantly lower in the CS group owing to lower productivity loss costs. The ICUR for RMDQ was €18,059 per point decrease and €220,457 per quality-adjusted life year increase.Conclusions: Digital referral did not decrease the overall healthcare status of patients after 1 year of follow-up and appears to be more cost-effective than UC. Therefore, CS can be used as an appropriate primary care referral model for CLBP patients at risk for axSpA. This will accelerate timely provision of care by the right caregiver.","PeriodicalId":21424,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10121333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
