Abstract Hepatitis B infection is a global health issue. When considering patients with rheumatic diseases, this is no different. By using immunosuppressant drugs, such as DMARDs and biologics, viral reactivation is possible, leading to serious consequences on the patient. We report 3 cases of associatio...
Abstract Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by axial arthritis. The genetic-environmental factors seem to be involved in the pathogenesis of the disease and the disease debilitates patients during the most productive stages of their lives. The aim of ...
OBJECTIVES: To compare the ultrasonographic findings of entheses in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients with those of healthy control individuals and to assess the ability of ultrasound (US) to identify aspects related to the disease. METHODS: A cross-sectional study involving 50 patients with AS and 3...

Abstract Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is an inflammatory rheumatic disease that affects the axial skeleton and the sacroiliac joints. Recent studies investigated the link between AS and oral diseases, particularly periodontitis. Others suggested that periodontitis may have a role in the pathogenesis of rh...

Handling a difficult airway is one of the biggest challenges for an anesthesiologist due to morbidity and mortality that it involves. This is why available devices are permanently reviewed to validate them in the handling of a known difficult airway or previously unknown. Patients with severe ankylosing ...
Resumo Objetivo: A uveíte anterior aguda é a principal manifestação extra-articular na espondiloartrite. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar se a presença da uveíte se associa com diferentes manifestações clínicas, laboratoriais, radiológicas e a terapêutica nos pacientes com espondiloartrit...

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is an idiopathic seronegative spondyloartropathy that involves mainly the axial skeleton and the sacroiliac joints. AS promotes biomechanical changes in the spine that predispose to fractures, spinal deformity and spondylodiscitis. The aim of this articl...

CONTEXTO: A espondilite anquilosante é uma espondiloartrite axial que acomete adultos jovens, em sua maioria do sexo masculino. Para o tratamento dessa condição, o SUS fornece anti-inflamatórios não esteroidais (AINE), medicamentos modificadores do curso da doença (MMCD) sintéticos e os medicament...
Given that the pathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) remains unclear, the aim of this study was to detect the potentially functional pathway cross-talk in AS to further reveal the pathogenesis of this disease. Using microarray profile of AS and biological pathways as study objects, Monte Carlo cros...
