Abstract

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 12 August 2004. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary.

Exercise therapy for spondyloarthritis: a systematic review

“…Results from inpatient rehabilitation protocols were comparable to outpatient exercise protocols. these findings are in keeping with previous reviews [8,40].…”

Pulmonary Impairment Does Not Limit Exercise Capacity in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis with Low Disease Activity

“…6 Both BASFI and BASDAI scores of our patients were found to be lower than the patients' scores in other studies. 6,34 BASFI and BASDAI scores in our study may help to explain why there is no difference in aerobic capacity between patients and control group in our study.…”

Efficacy and safety of non-pharmacological and non-biological interventions: a systematic literature review informing the 2022 update of the ASAS/EULAR recommendations for the management of axial spondyloarthritis

“…physiotherapy), is more efficacious than no intervention. However, group physiotherapy is superior to home exercises, and combined inpatient exercise followed by group physiotherapy is even superior to group physiotherapy alone 103. Later studies included in the 2016 SLR, and in the current SLR, were too heterogeneous and mostly at high RoB, precluding further conclusions on the benefit of a particular form of exercise over another 104.…”
