Background: Spondyloarthropathies are a group of closely related inflammatory arthritis which involve the axial skeleton and are negative for rheumatoid factor. Objective: This case-control study was conducted to examine HLA- B27 positivity in patients with seronegative spondyloarthritis (SSA) as per ESSG criteria and compare the frequency with healthy controls because a lower positivity is rep...
متن کاملSpondyloarthritis – Associated Hla-b Phenotypes in Northeastern Romania Population
Aim: The aim of our survey was to identify spondyloarthritis – associated to HLA -B phenotypes in the population from north-eastern part of Romania. Genetic (HLA or nonHLA genes) and infectious factors are involved in determining spondyloarthritis susceptibility and severity. The most frequent association is with HLA-B27 antigen, but the extent of association of this antigen with spondyloarthri...

PURPOSE Spondyloarthritis is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the musculoskeletal system driven by systemic enthesitis and typically involving the axial skeleton, ie, the spine and the sacroiliac joints. The purpose of this study was to assess the distribution pattern of inflammatory and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in spondyloarthritis. METHODS Retrospective study o...

Enthesitis-related arthritis and psoriatic arthritis are two different conditions in the JIA classification and are related to juvenile SpA
1.1 What is it? Juvenile SpA-ERA constitutes a group of chronic inflammatory diseases of the joints (arthritis), as well as tendon and ligament attachments to certain bones (enthesitis) and affects predominantly the lower limbs and in some cases the pelvic and spinal joints (sacroiliitis buttock pain and spondylitis back pain). Juvenile SpA-ERA is significantly more common in people that have a...
متن کاملAnalysis of HLA-B15 and HLA-B27 in spondyloarthritis with peripheral and axial clinical patterns.
OBJECTIVE Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) B27 and HLA-B15 are associated with spondyloarthritis (SpA). Recent Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) criteria emphasise a distinction between SpA with axial and peripheral patterns. We analysed whether HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 alleles could associate with these patterns. METHODS We studied 100 healthy individuals and 178 pat...
