Anti-Osteoporosis Is Imperative in Prevention of Progress of Ankylosing Spondylitis.
Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the spine and peripheral joints, often leading to kyphosis, joint stiffness, and even ankylosis. Sagittal parameters, such as total thoracic kyphosis (TTK), thoracic kyphosis (TK), major thoracic kyphosis (MTK), and thoracolumbar kyphosis (TLK), are crucial indices for evaluating spinal alignment in AS patients and can reflect disease progression. This study aims to explore the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD), sagittal parameters, and joint ankylosis in AS patients.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 147 AS patients. Participants were divided into three groups based on cervical and hip joint mobility. BMD was measured using quantitative computed tomography (QCT). Sagittal parameters (TTK, TK, MTK, TLK) were assessed using X-rays. Ordinal multinomial logistic regression and Spearman correlation analyses were performed to identify factors influencing joint stiffness.
Results: Significant differences in age, BMD, and sagittal parameters (TTK, TK, MTK, TLK) were observed among the groups. Ordinal logistic revealed that BMD (Estimate = 0.012) was negatively correlated with joint stiffness, while TTK (Estimate = 0.020) and TLK (Estimate = 0.030) were positively correlated. Age, TK, and MTK do not have a significant impact on joint stiffness. Spearman analysis showed no correlation between BMD and sagittal parameters (TTK and TLK). Besides, TTK and TLK were correlated.
Conclusion: In AS patients, BMD is an independent protective factor against joint stiffness, whereas sagittal parameters (TTK and TLK) contribute to increased joint stiffness. These findings highlight the importance of monitoring both bone mineral density and key sagittal parameters in clinical practice. Early anti-osteoporosis treatment, alongside interventions targeting abnormal spinal alignment, may help preserve joint mobility and potentially prevent progression to joint ankylosis.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of General Medicine is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on general and internal medicine, pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis, monitoring and treatment protocols. The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of reviews, original research and clinical studies across all disease areas.
A key focus of the journal is the elucidation of disease processes and management protocols resulting in improved outcomes for the patient. Patient perspectives such as satisfaction, quality of life, health literacy and communication and their role in developing new healthcare programs and optimizing clinical outcomes are major areas of interest for the journal.
As of 1st April 2019, the International Journal of General Medicine will no longer consider meta-analyses for publication.
