“…15 Both BASDAI and BASFI have been validated for use in the Portuguese language. 16 The SpA patients' medical records were reviewed to obtain clinical data and ascertain whether HLA B27 was present. The clinical data gathered included: diagnosis of disease subtype, disease duration, uveitis, axial and/or peripheral arthropathy, enthesopathy, dactylitis and HLA B27 presence.…”

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Accelerated atherosclerosis has become a major problem in rheumatic inflammatory disease. RESULTADOS: A ECIM média em pacientes com ES foi de 0,72 ± 0,21 mm, enquanto nos controles foi de 0,57 ± 0,13 mm (P = 0,0007). Não se encontrou associação com VHS, PCR, BASDAI e dados clínicos. Em análise univariada, maior ECIM foi encontrado nos indivíduos com maior duração de doença (P = 0,014; R Pearson = 0,40; 95% intervalo de confiança, IC = 0,06 to 0,65), aumento nos triglicerídeos (P = 0,02; R Spearman = 0,37; 95% IC = 0,03 to 0,64) e maior idade (P = 0,0014; R Pearson 0,51; 95% IC = 0,21 to 0,72). CONCLUSÃO: Pacientes com ES têm maior grau de aterosclerose subclínica do que controles, dando suporte às evidências clínicas de aumento de risco cardiovascular em pacientes com doenças reumáticas.

“…It is currently considered one of the most important tools for use in clinical assays. 8 In 1994, Calin et al published the BASFI (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index), a questionnaire that aims at assessing functional limitation in patients with AS. 9 The test includes eight items related to activities of daily living and two items that measure patient skill when dealing with everyday routine.…”

Introduction:Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the axial skeletal system, causing pain and functional incapacity. To measure the impact of AS on patient's life, questionnaires are used to assess disease activity (BASDAI); functional incapacity (BASFI); and quality of life (ASQoL). Fibromyalgia (FM) is one of the most common causes of generalized pain and can coexist with other diseases; it can be assessed by the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ). Few studies have demonstrated correlations between FM and AS. The present study obtained data regarding the epidemiologic profile of patients with AS and FM and evaluated the prevalence of FM in patients with AS. The FM influence on BASDAI, BASFI and ASQoL test scores was assessed. Patients and Method: A total of 71 patients with AS, diagnosed according to the modified New York criteria, were studied. Clinical and functional assessment was performed and BASDAI, BASFI and ASQoL tests were applied. Patients with a diagnosis of FM were evaluated through the FIQ. Results: Eleven patients met the criteria for FM; thus a FM prevalence of 15% was observed among the patients with AS. FM was more prevalent among women (3.8:1). Age at disease onset (AS) was 27.5 years. The HLA-B27 antigen was positive in most of them (80.4%). When comparing BASDAI, BASFI and ASQoL test means, it was observed that values are significantly higher (P < 0.01) among patients with FM. We concluded that the coexistence of FM can worsen AS activity aspects, as well as functional incapacity and quality of life.

“…Muscle function parameters were evaluated with isokinetic dynamometer Biodex System3 Pro (Biodex Medical System, Shirley, NY, USA), electromechanical equipment to quantitatively evaluate physical parameters of muscle function 17 . Pain was evaluated with VAS which, according to the American College of Rheumatology, checks pain levels in individuals with rheumatic diseases 18 . QL was evaluated with SF-36, applied after previous explanation and answering of questions.…”

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory, chronic and progressive disease. It impairs joint synovial membranes and may induce bone and cartilage destruction. Many diseases may follow rheumatoid arthritis, including systemic lupus erythematosus, an inflammatory, chronic autoimmune disease with multisystemic manifestations, with periods of remission and exacerbation. This study aimed at reporting kinesiotherapy intervention for quality of life, pain and muscle strength of a patient with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. CASE REPORT: Female patient, 49 years old, diagnosed 15 years ago with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. Patient complained of pain on hands, feet and lumbar spine, with irradiation to lower limb and morning stiffness. Tool to measure muscle function was Biodex System3 Pro isokinetic dynamometer in the speeds of 120 and 240° during knee flexion and extension movements, in addition to the Short-Form Health Survey questionnaire and pain evaluation by the visual analog scale. CONCLUSION: The study has shown that kinesiotherapybased physiotherapy is effective to relieve pain and improve muscle strength and quality of life of patient with systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis.
