Clinical and Ultrasonographic Findings in Patients with Early Rheumatoid Arthritis: An 18-Month Follow-Up Cohort Study
No full textConclusions: Radiographic damage progresses at the similar severity in early and very early RA patients. The most important factor affecting the radiographic damage progression is the severity of US synovitis at the baseline and in the 1st month, independently of the disease activity
Ankle pathologies in patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases: a clinical and ultrasonographic study
No full textConclusion: Tendon involvement in our RA patients was observed more frequently than has been previously estimated. TP tenosynovitis appears to be more specific for RA, while Achilles tendinitis is more frequent in axial SpA and reactive arthritis. Tibiotalar joint involvement exhibits a time-dependent significant increase in frequency in patients with RA
Features of the Achilles tendon, paratenon, and enthesis in inflammatory rheumatic diseases A clinical and ultrasonographic study
No full textThe AT thickness was affected much more by the height of patients with axial SpA in comparison to RA patients and healthy subjects. Age was an independent factor for high Achilles enthesitis scores only in axial SpA

Diagnostic Value of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound in Newly Diagnosed Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
No full textConclusion: We demonstrated that the efficacy of US is comparable with that of contrast-enhanced MRI in detecting arthritis. However, clinicians must be careful so as to not obtain misleading information regarding MCP and PIP joints using US in patients with synovitis and erosions
Ultrasonographic Characteristics of Femoral Trochlear Cartilage in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
No full textConclusion: Compared with cartilage thickness, cartilage clarity appears to be a very successful parameter in reflecting the patient's quality of life and functional status
Factors influencing ultrasonographic remission in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
No full textThe aim of this study was to define the ultrasonographic factors that indicate clinical remission in patients with RA. We enrolled a cohort of patients with RA in whom the disease had been in remission for at least 6 months. Musculoskeletal ultrasound (US) examination was used to evaluate the status of active synovitis, power Doppler (PD) signalling, and synovitis in the bilateral metacarpophalangeal; proximal interphalangeal; and radiocarpal, ulnocarpal, and intercarpal, compartments of the wrist. A total of 64 RA patients with a mean disease duration of 79.97 months were studied. Of all patients, 36 % had ultrasonographic synovitis and 29 % an increased PD signal from at least one joint. Delay in diagnosis was highly correlated with synovitis and PD synovitis (r = 0.55, p = 0.000; and r = 0.51, p = 0.001, respectively). A weak negative correlation was evident between synovitis, PD synovitis, tenosynovitis, PD tenosynovitis, and duration of clinical remission (respectively, r = -0.426, p = 0.000; r = -0.333, p = 0.007; r = -0.243, p = 0.050; and r = -0.247, p = 0.049). Upon multivariate logistic regression analysis, the duration of clinical remission and delay in diagnosis were the factors that most influenced ultrasonographic remission (OR 3.46, p = 0.046; OR 3.27, p = 0.016, respectively). Synovial inflammation may persist in RA patients exhibiting clinical remission. We found that US detected subclinical synovitis. The most important factors preventing ultrasonographic remission were a short duration of clinical remission and delay in diagnosis
Clinical and ultrasonographic enthesopathy in inflammatory rheumatic diseases: Is MASEI or only calcaneal enthesitis sufficient?
No full textAimWe aimed at investigating the ultrasonographic (US) and clinical prevalence of enthesopathy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and axial spondyloarthropathy (SpA), as well as the correlation between this condition and disease activity, along with the quality of life.MethodsIncluded in the study were 30axial SpA, 21patients with RA, and 25healthy cases. Bath Anklylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL), Disease activity index 28 (DAS28), and Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) were used for clinical evaluation, and enthesal pain was evaluated by VAS, whereas enthesitis US evaluation was performed by using the MAdrid Sonographic Enthesitis Index (MASEI). Atotal of 152 knees, ankles, and elbow regions of all patients and controls were examined by US.ResultsTotal scores of physical examination of enthesitis were 1.97 2.68 in axial SpA, 2.43 1.80 in RA, and 0.23 0.12 in the control groups. No statistically significant difference was identified in the enthesitis examination between axial SpA and RA groups (p= 0.123). According to the MASEI, no significant difference was observed in quadriceps tendon enthesitis or in distal patellar ligament enthesitis between axial SpA and RA groups (MASEI3,4,5: p= 0.993, p= 0.124, p= 0.652). Aside from those points, axial SpA patients had statistically higher enthesitis scores at all MASEI enthesitis points (p< 0.05). In the axial SpA group, asignificant and positive correlation was identified between BASDAI scores and total scores of enthesitis physical examination and MASEI total scores (r= 0.739, p= 0.0001, r= 0.516, p= 0.002). Amoderately significant correlation was identified between ASQoL total scores and MASEI total scores (r= 0.466, p= 0.006), but not between the HAQ total scores and MASEI total scores (r= 0.213, p= 0.065).ConclusionsCompared to RA, US and clinical examination of enthesitis in patients with axial SpA should focus on the calcaneal enthesitis region. In axial SpA, ultrasonographic enthesitis is associated with impaired quality of life
