Title: DEFINING POOR GLOBAL FUNCTIONING AND HEALTH IN AXIAL SPONDYLOARTHRITIS, USING THE EQ-5D-3L QUESTIONNAIRE, WHEN THE ASAS-HI IS NOT AVAILABLE IS FEASIBLE. AN ANSLYSIS OF 2651 PATIENTS FROM THE PERSPA STUDY

The EQ-5D, a validated generic score to assess utility, can be used to assess overall general health in axSpA patients when the ASAS-HI is not available.

Title: LOW RATE OF SWITCHING FROM NR-AXSPA TO R-AXSPA AFTER 10 YEARS OF FOLLOW UP IN EARLY AXIAL SPODYLOARTHRITIS. DATA FROM DESIR COHORT

Patients with early axSpA have a low likelihood of changing from nr-axSpA to r-axSpA over 10 years, especially when considering the use of anti-TNF.

Title: THE YIELD OF REPEATED ASSESSMENTS IN CHRONIC BACK PAIN PATIENTS SUSPECTED OF EARLY AXIAL SPONDYLOARTHRITIS: TWO-YEAR DATA FROM THE SPONDYLOARTHRITIS CAUGHT EARLY (SPACE COHORT)

The yield of repeated assessments of SpA features in patients with chronic back pain suspected of axSpA was modest for the increase of new definite axSpA diagnosis at 2 years, since most SpA features were already present at baseline.
