| الوصف: | Background: Enthesitis is a common feature of axial spondyloarthropathy (axSpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Up to 25% of individuals with axSpA and PsA have a co-existing diagnosis of fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). The anatomic overlap between tender points in FMS and sites of entheses is a challenge when differentiating between active SpA and FMS. Literature investigating the co-existence of enthesitis and FMS in individuals with SpA is sparse, in particular the effect of sex. The ASAS Peripheral involvement in Spondyloarthritis (PerSpA) study aims to characterize peripheral musculoskeletal in individuals with SpA across the world. Objectives: (1)To characterise the co-existence of enthesitis and FMS in individuals with SpA. (2)To explore the effect of sex on the presence of FMS and enthesitis. Methods: All individuals from the cross-sectional multinational ASAS-PerSpA study with a diagnosis of axSpA, peripheral SpA (pSpA) or PsA according to their rheumatologist were included. The Fibromyalgia Rapid Screening Tool (FiRST) was used to make the diagnosis of FMS. The baseline descriptive and clinical differences between sexes were performed using T-tests and crosstabs. Sex-stratified comparisons within the following categories were conducted using chi-square analysis and ANOVA as appropriate: (1) enthesitis & fibromyalgia; (2) enthesitis only; (3) fibromyalgia only; (4) neither. Results: Baseline characteristics of the 4465 included patients are outlined in Table 1, stratified by sex. Enthesitis occurred in 44% (n=1984) of the population and was more common in females than males (48% vs 42%, p<0.01). The majority affected had intermittent episodes of enthesitis (55%, n=1088), with the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia the two most common sites in both sexes. Enthesitis was more often confirmed on imaging in females than males (44% v 35%, p<0.01). The most common treatment for enthesitis was non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (97%, n=1318), with no difference when stratified by sex. FMS occurred in 19% ... |
