Association of Sleep Quality and General, Mental, and Oral Health with Lifestyle Traits (Dietary Intake, Smoking Status) in Arthritis: A Cross-Sectional Study from the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS). Nutrients 2024; 16:2091. [PMID: 38999838 PMCID: PMC11243648 DOI: 10.3390/nu16132091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Arthritis is associated with health challenges. Lifestyle traits are believed to influence arthritis development and progression; however, data to support personalized treatment regimens based on holistic lifestyle factors are missing. This study aims to provide a comprehensive list of associations between lifestyle traits and the health status of individuals with arthritis in the Canadian population, using binary logistic regression analysis on data from the Canadian Community Health Survey, which includes 104,359 respondents. Firstly, we explored the association between arthritis and various aspects of health status including self-reported lifestyle factors. Secondly, we examined the associations between self-reported dietary intake and smoking status with general, mental, and oral health, and sleep disturbance among individuals both with and without arthritis. Our analysis revealed that individuals with arthritis reported considerably poorer general, mental, and oral health, and poorer sleep quality compared to those without arthritis. Associations were also found between self-reported dietary intake and various measures of health status in individuals with arthritis. Smoking and exposure to passive smoking were associated not only with arthritis but also with compromised sleep quality and poorer general, mental, and oral health in people with and without arthritis. This study highlights the need for personalized and holistic approaches that may include a combination of dietary interventions, oral health improvements, sleep therapies, and smoking cessation for improved arthritis prevention and care.

Exploring associations with depressive and anxiety symptoms among Syrian patients with ankylosing spondylitis undergoing biological treatment: A cross-sectional study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e37708. [PMID: 38579064 PMCID: PMC10994469 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000037708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024] Open
Abstract
People with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are vulnerable group to experience mood disorders. It is crucial to identify factors that contribute to depression and anxiety in order to improve outcomes. This study seeks to determine the rates of depression and anxiety in Syrian AS patients, as well as identify potential predictors for these conditions. This cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling at the Biological Treatment Unit of the Rheumatology Department of the Damascus Hospital. Data were collected from face-to-face interviews with patients using validated structural questionnaire. A multivariate linear regression model was used to investigate potential predictive factors of depressive and anxiety symptoms. Of the 103 patients, 49.5% showed clinically significant depressive symptoms, and 36.9 % showed clinically significant anxiety symptoms. Multivariate linear regression indicated that depressive and anxiety symptoms were predicted by job layoff, hip pain, positive history of mental distress, poor quality of life, severe fatigue, and high frequency of sleep disturbance with relatively high explanatory powers. depressive and anxiety symptoms were predicted by disease activity scores but with low explanatory power. This study demonstrated high levels of that depressive and anxiety symptoms among Syrian patients with AS undergoing biological treatment. Poor quality of life, severe fatigue, and high-frequency sleep disturbances are major predictive factors for depressive and anxiety symptoms. Screening for depression and anxiety holds significant importance in the comprehensive management of ankylosing spondylitis even in the context of concurrent biological treatment administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disorders and fatigue are prevalent symptoms affecting primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) patients. This study aimed to assess the sleep quality of pSS patients as well as its relationship to fatigue and orexin level. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study evaluating fatigue in pSS using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). Sleep quality was evaluated using the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ESSDAI) and EULAR Sjögren's Syndrome Patient-Reported Index (ESSPRI) were calculated. RESULTS Forty-one patients met the sample criteria and were involved in the final report. They were all females, with a mean (± SD) age and median disease duration of 40.87 ± 10.84 and 36 (6-180) months, respectively. The mean ESSDAI was 0.92 ± 1.3, while the mean ESSPRI was 5.8 ± 2.13. Based on the FSS, 32 (78.04%) patients had a positive test with a mean score of 5.07 ± 1.54. The total PSQI score showed that 60.97% had poor sleep, and the orexin level was lower in patients with pSS than in healthy controls. There was no correlation between orexin level and the presence of fatigue nor the PSQI score. CONCLUSION In conclusion, serum orexin levels were lower in patients with pSS than healthy controls, It could be related to impairments in sleep and fatigue in patients with pSS.

Abstract
PURPOSE This qualitative study (GSK study: 213635) was designed to better understand sleep disturbance as experienced by individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), and the relationship between sleep disturbance and pain and other aspects of the disease and disease activity. METHODS Sixty-minute, one-on-one, concept elicitation interviews were conducted with 30 participants (15 with RA and 15 with axSpA) from the US. Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Interview transcripts were coded and analyzed to explore themes related to pain and sleep disturbance, and relationships among those themes. RESULTS Pain was a prominent driver of sleep disturbance; 12 participants with RA (80%) and 14 with axSpA (93%) reported that pain impacted their ability to fall asleep, while all 15 with RA (100%) and 14 with axSpA (93%) reported that pain impacted their ability to stay asleep. Two-thirds of participants with RA (67%) or axSpA (60%) described a bi-directional relationship, whereby pain worsened sleep disturbance and sleep disturbance further aggravated pain. Factors other than pain, such as fatigue and emotional health, were also reported as important contributors to sleep disturbance (RA: n = 12/15, 80%; axSpA: n = 14/15, 93%). Participants with RA or axSpA described complex interconnections between fatigue, emotional health, pain, and sleep, often labeling these relationships as "vicious cycles". Notably, half of all participants reported sleep disturbance occurring without pain or other understood causes. CONCLUSION These perspectives collected from people with RA or axSpA suggest that reducing sleep disruption directly may offer clinically relevant benefits.

SLEEP quality in patients with psoriatic arthritis and its relationship with disease activity and comorbidities: a cross-sectional study. Sci Rep 2023; 13:22927. [PMID: 38129461 PMCID: PMC10739913 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-48723-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
The assessment of psoriatic arthritis is complex and multidimensional. It is increasingly common to include the patient perspective using patient-reported outcomes. Although some research has explored sleep quality in patients with psoriatic arthritis, most studies have had small sample sizes, failed to assess sleep quality considering the inflammatory process together with the psychological well-being of patients, and have not described any use of sleep medication. Further, research to date has not provided data on the relationship of sleep quality with axial forms. In this context, the objective of this study was to assess sleep quality in patients with psoriatic arthritis and its relationship with clinical characteristics, disease activity, functioning, disease impact, fatigue and psychological status. A cross-sectional study was conducted including 247 consecutive patients with PsA recruited during 2021. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. We assessed correlations of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score with peripheral disease activity (Disease Activity Index for PSoriatic Arthritis), axial disease activity (Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score-C-reactive protein and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index), functioning (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index and Health Assessment Questionnaire), impact (Psoriatic Arthritis Impact of Disease questionnaire), anxiety, depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) and fatigue (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue) scores. A multiple linear regression model was constructed with PSQI as the dependent variable and as independent variables those that could influence sleep quality. Nearly two-thirds (63.15%) of patients had poor sleep quality. Poorer sleep quality was associated with being female, higher joint counts, greater peripheral and axial disease activity, fatigue, anxiety and depression, functioning and disease impact (p < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis found that pain (β: 0.3; p < 0.007) and fatigue β: - 0.1; p < 0.001 contributed 40% to the sleep quality model. Poor sleep quality was common among patients with psoriatic arthritis. Emotional factors (fatigue, anxiety) seemed more important than inflammatory factors in sleep quality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tofacitinib is an oral Janus kinase inhibitor for treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Using mediation modelling, we describe interrelationships between fatigue, pain, morning stiffness, C-reactive protein (CRP) and tofacitinib treatment in patients with AS. METHODS Data from phase 2 (NCT01786668)/phase 3 (NCT03502616) studies of patients receiving tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily (BID) or placebo were used. Initial models included treatment as the independent binary variable (tofacitinib 5 mg BID versus placebo); fatigue (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue [FACIT-F; model A] or Bath AS Disease Activity Index [BASDAI] Q1 [model B]) as the dependent variable; and pain (total back pain/nocturnal spinal pain [model A] or pain measured by BASDAI Q2/3 [model B]), morning stiffness (BASDAI Q5/6) and CRP as mediator variables. RESULTS Pooled data from 370/371 patients were included in models A/B. Initial models demonstrated that tofacitinib treatment affects fatigue mainly indirectly via pain and morning stiffness. As a result, initial models were respecified to exclude direct treatment effect and the indirect effect via CRP. For respecified model A, 44.0% of the indirect effect of tofacitinib treatment on fatigue was mediated via back pain/morning stiffness, 40.0% via morning stiffness alone and 16.0% via back pain alone (all P < 0.05). For respecified model B, 80.8% of the indirect effect of tofacitinib treatment on fatigue was mediated via pain/morning stiffness and 19.2% via pain alone (both P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In tofacitinib-treated patients with AS, improvements in fatigue were collectively mediated through combined treatment effects on morning stiffness and pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) patients face several challenges due to the nature of the disease and its physical and psychological complications. Sleep disorders are among the most important concerns. Sleep disorders can aggravate the signs and symptoms of the disease and ultimately reduce the quality of patients' lives. This study uses a systematic review and meta-analysis to pool the reported prevalence of sleep disorders among AS patients. METHODS To find related studies, the WoS, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar databases were systematically searched without a lower time limit. Heterogeneity among the identified studies was checked using the I2 index, and the Begg and Mazumdar correlation test examined the existence of published bias. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (v.2) software was adopted to analyze the data. RESULTS In the review of 18 studies with a sample size of 5,840, the overall pooled prevalence of sleep disorders among AS patients based on the random effects method was found to be 53% (95% CI: 44.9-61). The highest and lowest prevalence was in Egypt at 90% and Australia at 19.2%, respectively. Our meta-regression results show that with the increase in 'sample size' and 'year of publication', the overall prevalence of sleep disorders in patients with AS decreases (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The results of the present study indicate a high and significant prevalence of sleep disorders among AS patients. Thus, health policymakers and healthcare providers must focus on timely diagnosis and effective educational and therapeutic interventions for the prevention and proper treatment of sleep disorders in this population of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) may have a profound impact on sleep and health-related quality of life. The aim of this study was to assess sleep quality and quality of life and determine associated factors in patients treated with spondyloarthritides (SpA). METHODS Cross-sectional questionnaire-based assessment of sleep behaviour, quality of life, functional impairment and depression (Regensburg Insomnia Scale, WHO Quality of Life questionnaire, Funktionsfragebogen Hannover questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory II, Patient health questionnaire 9) and retrospective medical chart analysis of a monocentric cohort of 330 patients with SpA (n=168 PsA and n=162 axSpA). RESULTS 46.6% of patients with SpA demonstrated abnormal sleep behaviour. Linear regression models showed HLA-B27 positivity, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index, depressive symptoms, functional capacity and disease duration to be predictive of insomnia symptoms in axSpA, respectively, depressive symptoms, female sex and Disease Activity Score 28 in patients with PsA. Patients with unrestful sleep had a significantly reduced health-related quality of life (p<0.001) as well as significantly more depressive symptoms (p<0.001). Satisfaction with health was rated significantly lower (p<0.001), indicating poor sleep as a burden on general well-being.In particular, female patients had a significantly worse sleep quality with a prolonged sleep latency (p=0.009), increased sleep disturbances (p=0.014) and unrestful sleep (p<0.001) as well as a reduced physical and mental health-related quality of life (p=0.015, p<0.001) and more depressive symptoms (p=0.015). CONCLUSION Despite treatment, many patients with SpA demonstrate abnormal sleep behaviour with symptoms of insomnia and a reduced quality of life with significant differences between male and female patients. An interdisciplinary and holistic approach may be needed to address unmet needs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous research has shown that many patients with musculoskeletal diseases suffer from sleep disturbances. However, the sleep quality of patients with cervical radiculopathy (CR) has yet to be fully investigated. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and status of sleep disturbances in patients with CR and identify the mechanisms and risk factors associated with this condition. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of patients diagnosed with CR. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) were used to evaluate the sleep quality of patients and determine whether patients experience sleep disturbances. In addition, we analyzed the clinical and radiological risk factors of sleep disturbance and determined the key risk factors related to sleep disturbance by multivariable analysis. RESULTS According to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, 186 patients with CR were finally included, with a mean age of 59.1 ± 14.3 years, of which 113 (60.8%) were female. Sleep disturbance was defined as a PSQI score ≥ 6 and was identified in 56.5% of patients (105/186). By performing multivariate analysis, we determined that sleep disturbance was closely related to the female gender, a higher Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) score, a reduction in cervical mobility, an increase in C2-C7 sagittal vertical axis (C2-C7 SVA), and severe asymmetry of the paravertebral muscle at C5 and C6 levels. CONCLUSION In this study, we identified the high prevalence and potential high-risk factors of sleep disturbance in patients with CR. Clinicians should closely evaluate and monitor such patients and consider appropriate treatment strategies. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
Marked fatigue is common in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study aimed to assess the association of sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), with SLE. Forty-two consecutive patients with SLE and 20 healthy controls were recruited and underwent a one-night ambulatory sleep examination. They completed questionnaires, including the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT). SLE disease activity and damage were assessed by the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) and the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology (SLICC/ACR) damage index (SDI). A significantly increased apnea/hypopnea index was noted in the SLE group compared to healthy controls (p = 0.004). SLE patients had higher rates of moderate-to-severe OSA (p = 0.04), PSQI (p = 0.001), and FACIT scores (p = 0.0008). Multivariate analysis revealed that the SDI was associated with OSA (p = 0.03). There was a positive association between SLEDAI-2K and moderate-to-severe OSA (p = 0.03). Patients with SLE had an increased prevalence of OSA and poorer quality of sleep compared to healthy controls. Our findings suggest that active disease and accumulated damage may be associated with OSA. These findings highlight the importance of identifying the presence of OSA in patients with SLE.

Conventional Synthetic Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs and the Risk of Vascular Dementia in Patients with Spondyloarthritis: A Database Cohort Study. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12030950. [PMID: 36769598 PMCID: PMC9917485 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12030950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2022] [Revised: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease that mainly affects the axial bones, and dementia is characterized by a decline in cognitive function, leading to dependence in everyday activity. Although the association between dementia and ankylosing spondylitis has been investigated, the influence of axSpA medication on dementia risk is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk of dementia among axSpA patients and if the conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) can reduce the risk of dementia. Patients with axSpA whose data were recorded during 2004-2008 and who were followed up until the end of 2010 were recruited. A control cohort was matched by age and sex. A Cox multivariate proportional hazards model was applied to analyze the risk factors for dementia. The hazard ratio (HR) and adjusted HR (aHR) were estimated between the study and control cohorts. The effects of csDMARDs and steroid use on the risk of different types of dementia were also analyzed. In total, 2341 and 11,705 patients constituted the axSpA and control cohort, respectively. The axSpA cohort had a greater risk of vascular dementia (aHR = 2.09 (1.36-3.20). The risk of dementia (aHR = 1.01 (0.55-1.85) did not significantly differ between patients with axSpA who received csDMARDs. In conclusion, patients with axSpA are at a risk of vascular dementia, which could be reduced by csDMARDs.

Abstract
To compare the effects of aerobic training versus aerobic training combined with clinical Pilates exercises (CPE) on the functional and psychosocial status of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Twenty-eight patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) were randomized into 2 groups. Group 1 (n = 14) performed both aerobic training and CPE, whereas group 2 (n = 14) performed aerobic training alone. Functional status of the patients was assessed using the Bath Ankylosing Mobility Index (BASMI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), back scratch test (BST), single leg stance test, functional reach test, a dynamometer, chair sit and stand test, and 6-minute walk test (6MWT), and the psychosocial status of the patients was assessed using the Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL) questionnaire, the Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue (MAF), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS), and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK). Both training programs were conducted for 8 weeks, and then, the assessments were repeated. A statistically significant improvement was observed in the BASMI (p = .001), BASDAI (p = .001), BASFI (p = .002), BST (right, p = .05; left, p = .025), functional reach test (p = .013), back muscle strength (p = .033), 6MWT (p = .011), ASQoL (p < .001), MAF (p = .01), and PSQI (p = .013) scores in group 1. A significant difference was observed in the BASDAI (p = .028), chair sit and stand test (p = .022), 6MWT (p = .04), and ASQoL (p = .04) scores in group 2. CPE in addition to aerobic training was more effective in improving the functional and psychosocial status of the patients with AS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases, such as ankylosing spondylitis (AS), has been variable. Here, we assess disease activity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) through the pandemic in patients with AS. METHODS In the open-label extension (OLE) of the phase 2b BE AGILE study, patients with AS received 160 mg of subcutaneous bimekizumab every 4 weeks. We assessed Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score with C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) and Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL) scores in the OLE immediately before and during the COVID-19 pandemic (September 2019 to April 2021). RESULTS A total of 232 patients remained in the BE AGILE OLE and were included in this post hoc study at the start of the analysis period (September 1, 2019); 12 patients had a COVID-19 treatment-emergent adverse event, and no cases resulted in death. The number of missed bimekizumab doses due to COVID-19 (11 doses) was minimal, and missed assessments remained low (≤5%) compared with the prepandemic period. Mean ASDAS-CRP (1.8), BASDAI (2.4), and ASQoL scores (2.8) in the OLE were low at pre-pandemic baseline and remained stable at 1.7 to 1.8, 2.2 to 2.4, and 2.0 to 2.8, respectively, across successive 3-month periods immediately before and during the pandemic. ASDAS-CRP, BASDAI, and ASQoL stability was consistent across major study countries. CONCLUSION Disease activity and HRQoL remained stable during the COVID-19 pandemic in patients with AS receiving bimekizumab in the BE AGILE OLE, with no indication of negative effects on these outcomes.

Abstract
Psoriasis alters patients’ quality of life. Among the disorders associated with psoriasis, sleep disorders are common, although they are not directly assessed by most quality-of-life scores. Thus, the specific evaluation of sleep disorders using dedicated scores is necessary, especially because such disorders alter patients;’ physical and psychological health. The relationship between psoriasis and sleep disorders has been shown in numerous studies, but has not yet been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to update knowledge of sleep disorders in patients with psoriasis, through a review of the scientific literature since 1980. This work covers several topics of interest, such as sleep assessment methods, the prevalence of sleep disorders in patients with psoriasis, factors predictive of sleep disorders in patients with psoriasis, the impact of sleep disorders on comorbidities and quality of life, pathogenic mechanisms, obstructive sleep apnoea and restless leg syndromes, and the impact of biotherapy treatments on sleep disorders in patients with psoriasis.

Abstract
Introduction Sleep disturbance and fatigue are commonly reported in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) but specific prevalence and the relationship to disease control are unknown. Method This retrospective non-interventional observational study of data from the OPAL dataset included patients with AS (ICD code M45, M45.0 or M08.1), aged 18 to 95 years and had completed ≥ 1 sleep questionnaire between 1 January 2019 and 30 September 2020. The prevalence of insomnia and obstructive sleep apnoea were assessed using the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) and Multivariate Apnoea Prediction Index (MAPI), respectively. Propensity score (PS) matching based on sex, age and symptom duration increased comparability between patients administered tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) and interleukin 17A inhibitors (IL-17Ai). Results Four hundred ninety-five patients were included. The mean ISI total score in the overall population was 8.6 ± 6.2. Self-reported moderate or severe clinical insomnia was present in 16% and 3.2% of patients, respectively. The mean MAPI score was 0.4 ± 0.3, self-reported apnoea was identified in 31.5% of patients and the mean FACIT-Fatigue score was 36.1 ± 10.7. In the PS matched population, the only treatment-related difference was the mean MAPI score (IL-17Ai 0.4 ± 0.3 and TNFi 0.3 ± 0.2, p = 0.046). Those with poor disease control (BASDAI ≥ 4) were more likely (odds ratio [OR] 7.29, 95% CI 2.37 to 22.46, p = 0.001) to have a greater severity of insomnia symptoms than those with good disease control. Conclusion In this real-world AS cohort, poor disease control was associated with sleep disturbance. Little difference in sleep disturbance was observed between biologic TNFi and IL-17Ai treatment. Key Points | • Sleep disturbance and fatigue are common in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. • In our real-world cohort, self-reported apnoea was reported in one-third of patients; and one in five patients reported moderate to severe insomnia. • Those with poor disease control were more likely to experience greater sleep disturbance than those with good disease control. |

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is an immune-mediated, chronic inflammatory rheumatic disorder. The etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) is multifactorial; however, inflammation is receiving an increasing amount of attention as an underlying cause of the neurodegenerative process of PD. OBJECTIVE We performed a nationwide longitudinal, population-based matched cohort study to assess the association with the later development of parkinsonism in Korea. METHODS This study was conducted using records from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service database. The cumulative incidence rate of PD was estimated. Fine-Gray subdistribution hazard models were used to identify hazards associated with PD development based on the presence of AS. Exposure to anti-inflammatory drugs was measured and analyzed to determine the protective effect of these medications. Additionally, the hazard ratio (HR) for atypical parkinsonism was estimated. RESULTS The results of the Fine-Gray subdistribution hazard model revealed that the HR for PD development in the AS group was 1.82 (95%confidence interval [CI], 1.38-2.39, p < 0.001). A significant decrease in PD development was observed in patients with AS taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The HR for atypical parkinsonism in the AS group was 3.86 (95%CI, 1.08-13.78, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION We found that AS was associated with an increased risk of PD and atypical parkinsonism. NSAIDs used for AS control have some protective effects against PD. Further studies assessing whether biological treatment mitigates PD risk in patients with high activity are warranted.

Abstract
In patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), pain, functional and structural impairments, reduced mobility and potential deformity of the axial skeleton are the most prominent health concerns. Limitations in physical function and spinal mobility are caused by both inflammation and structural damage, and therefore restrictions to physical function must be monitored throughout a patient's life. Consequently, the assessment of physical function is recommended as a key domain in the Assessment of Spondyloarthritis International Society-OMERACT Core Outcome Set. However, in comparison with disease activity, physical function seems to be a relatively neglected target of intervention in patients with axSpA, even though physical function is a major contributor to costs and disability in this disease. This Review aims to reacquaint rheumatologists with the targets for physical function, physical activity and performance by giving guidance on determinants of physical function and how physical function can be examined in patients with axSpA.

Abstract
To investigate the association of sleep disturbance with calcium regulatory hormones, disease severity and health index among the patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).There were 104 AS patients enrolled in the cross-sectional study, and their sleep quality was recorded. Serum levels of calcium, parathyroid hormone, vitamin D3 and calcitonin were measured. We evaluated patient's disease activity, functional ability, patient's global assessment, physical mobility, radiographic damage and health index. Blood ESR and CRP levels were tested.Sleep quality was positively correlated with serum calcitonin levels (r = 0.260, P = .008). Bad sleep and advanced radiographic damage were found among the AS patients with detectable serum calcitonin levels (P < .05). Sleep quality was significantly correlated with disease duration, CRP, BASDAI, ASDAS-ESR, ASDAS-CRP, BASFI, BAS-G, BASMI and ASAS-HI among the AS patients (all P < .05). Female gender, longer disease duration, higher ASDAS-CRP and serum calcitonin levels (OR [95% CI] = 3.210 [1.012-10.181], P = .048) were independent factors associated with bad sleep. Inflammation, disease activity, functional ability, patient's global assessment and cervical rotation were useful in predicting bad sleep among the AS patients, and ASDAS-CRP was the best predictor (AUC = 0.772, P < .001).Serum calcitonin levels was elevated in the AS patients with bad sleep, and may participate in the pathophysiology of sleep disturbance. Bad sleep was associated with female gender, longer disease duration, higher inflammation, disease activity, functional impairment, mobility restriction, poor patient's global assessment and health index in AS. ASDAS-CRP was best in predicting bad sleep.

Phytohormone abscisic acid boosts pentobarbital-induced sleep through activation of GABA-A, PPARβ and PPARγ receptor signaling. ARQUIVOS DE NEURO-PSIQUIATRIA 2021; 79:216-221.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disorders induce anxiety and forgetfulness and change habits. The chemical hypnotic drugs currently used have serious side effects and, therefore, people are drawn towards using natural compounds such as plant-based healing agents. Abscisic acid (ABA) is produced in a variety of mammalian tissues and it is involved in many neurophysiological functions. OBJECTIVE To investigate the possible effect of ABA on pentobarbital-induced sleep and its possible signaling through GABA-A and PPAR (γ and β) receptors, in male Wistar rats. METHODS The possible effect of ABA (5 and 10 µg/rat, intracerebroventricularly) on sleep onset latency time and duration was evaluated in a V-maze model of sleep. Pentobarbital sodium (40 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) was injected to induce sleep 30 min after administration of ABA. PPARβ (GSK0660, 80 nM/rat), PPARγ (GW9662, 3 nM/rat) or GABA-A receptor (bicuculline, 6 µg/rat) antagonists were given 15 min before ABA injection. Diazepam (2 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) was used as a positive control group. RESULTS ABA at 5 µg significantly boosted the pentobarbital-induced subhypnotic effects and promoted induction of sleep onset in a manner comparable to diazepam treatment. Furthermore, pretreatment with bicuculline significantly abolished the ABA effects on sleep parameters, while the amplifying effects of ABA on the induction of sleep onset was not significantly affected by PPARβ or PPARγ antagonists. The sleep prolonging effect of ABA was significantly prevented by both PPAR antagonists. CONCLUSIONS The data showed that ABA boosts pentobarbital-induced sleep and that GABA-A, PPARβ and PPARγ receptors are, at least in part, involved in ABA signaling.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to investigate the effects of loneliness, perceived social support, and depression on medication adherence of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). DESIGN AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted with 119 AS patients. Data were collected using the Morisky-Green-Levine Medication Adherence Scale, the UCLA Loneliness Scale (ULS), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). FINDINGS Nonadherent patients were younger (P = .033), scored higher on the ULS (P = .015), and BDI (P = .024) scales, and lower on the MSPSS scale (P = .039) and on family support (P = .002). PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS The biopsychosocial aspects of patients with AS should be managed holistically to improve their medication adherence.

Abstract
Depression is a major neuropsychiatric disorder common in patients with rheumatological conditions including spondyloarthritis (SpA). It is associated with higher disease activity, functional impairment, poor treatment response and quality of life in patients with musculoskeletal disorders. Using ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) as examples, we have reviewed the evidence regarding the burden, risk factors, potential mechanisms and clinical management of depression in spondyloarthritis. The prevalence of depression is higher in patients with AS and PsA compared with the general population, with evidence of moderate/severe depression in about 15% of patients with AS or PsA. Mild depression is even more common and estimated to be present in about 40% of patients with AS. In addition to conventional risk factors such as stressful life events and socioeconomic deprivation, increased risk of depression in SpA may be associated with disease-related factors, such as disease activity, poor quality of life, fatigue, and sleep disturbances. Emerging evidence implicates inflammation in the aetiology of depression, which could also be a shared mechanism for depression and chronic inflammatory conditions such as AS and PsA. It is imperative for clinicians to actively assess and treat depression in SpA, as this could improve treatment adherence, quality of life, and overall long-term clinical and occupational outcomes. The use of validated tools can aid recognition and management of depression in rheumatology clinics. Management of depression in SpA, especially when to refer to specialist mental health services, are discussed.

Ther Adv Musculoskelet Dis 2020; 12:1759720X20949088. [PMID: 33062067 PMCID: PMC7534071 DOI: 10.1177/1759720x20949088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2020] [Accepted: 07/08/2020] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: Our aim was to evaluate the effect of adalimumab on work productivity measures, overall activity impairment, and sleep quality in patients with active moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), or ankylosing spondylitis (AS) treated in routine care settings in Greece and determine factors associated with work impairment and sleep disturbance. Methods: Patients with active moderate to severe RA (n = 184), PsA (n = 166), and AS (n = 150) were enrolled in this 24-month, prospective, observational study at 80 hospital outpatient clinics and private practices throughout Greece. Patients received adalimumab alone or in combination with standard antirheumatic therapies according to routine care. Work productivity and sleep were assessed through two patient-reported outcome measures: the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment–General Health questionnaire and the Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Scale (MOS-SS). Pearson correlation coefficients were estimated to assess the association of work impairment and sleep disturbances with disease activity scores. Results: In the overall population, adalimumab significantly lowered absenteeism [mean (95% confidence interval) reduction, 18.9% (13.3–24.5%); n = 100]; presenteeism [40.0% (33.8–46.3%); n = 98], overall work productivity impairment [46.8% (40.4–53.2%); n = 94], activity impairment [47.0% (44.3–49.6); n = 421], and the MOS-SS sleep problems index [31.6 (29.5–34.1); n = 421] after 24-month treatment (p < 0.001). Significant improvements were also noted across the RA, PsA, and AS subpopulations (p < 0.05). Improvements in overall work impairment and sleep disturbance positively correlated with improvements in disease activity measures. Conclusion: Adalimumab improves work productivity and sleep problems while lowering disease activity in patients with moderate to severe RA, PsA, and AS managed in real-world settings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) is a multifactorial disease characterized by recurrent hypopnea or respiratory interruption during sleep, which causes intermittent hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and sleep structure disturbances. An association between ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and the type of SAHS has rarely been reported in the literature. Here, we present a case of SAHS in a patient with AS and discuss the possible mechanism underlying the type of SAHS. PATIENT CONCERNS A 46-year-old man presented with a 15-year history of AS. He had been receiving sulfasalazine for symptomatic relief and had never been on immunosuppressive therapy. DIAGNOSIS The patient was diagnosed with SAHS in addition to AS. INTERVENTIONS We instituted treatment with methylprednisolone (5 mg, oral, daily), leflumomide (20 mg, oral, daily), bicyclol tablets (25 mg, oral, 3 times a day), and ursodeoxycholic acid tablets (10 mg/kg, oral, daily). The patient received etanercept (50 mg, sc, once a week) as his condition deteriorated. In addition, for management of SAHS symptoms, the patient received nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) during sleep. OUTCOMES Six months after commencement of the treatment, the clinical manifestations of SAHS and AS had significantly improved. CONCLUSIONS We hypothesize that patients with AS are prone to sleep apnea due to airway compression, central depression of respiration, abnormal inflammatory responses. Hence, careful assessment toward potential SAHS symptoms should be considered especially in patients with AS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bimekizumab selectively neutralises both interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-17F. We report efficacy and safety in a phase IIb dose-ranging study in patients with active ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS Adults with AS (fulfilling modified New York criteria) were randomised 1:1:1:1:1 to bimekizumab 16 mg, 64 mg, 160 mg, 320 mg or placebo every 4 weeks for 12 weeks (double-blind period). At week 12, patients receiving bimekizumab 16 mg, 64 mg or placebo were re-randomised 1:1 to bimekizumab 160 mg or 320 mg every 4 weeks to week 48; other patients continued on their initial dose (dose-blind period). The primary end point was Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) 40 response at week 12 (non-responder imputation (NRI) for missing data). RESULTS 303 patients were randomised: bimekizumab 16 mg (n=61), 64 mg (n=61), 160 mg (n=60), 320 mg (n=61) or placebo (n=60). At week 12, significantly more bimekizumab-treated patients achieved ASAS40 vs placebo (NRI: 29.5%-46.7% vs 13.3%; p<0.05 all comparisons; OR vs placebo 2.6-5.5 (95% CI 1.0 to 12.9)). A significant dose-response was observed (p<0.001). The primary end point was supported by all secondary efficacy outcomes. At week 48, 58.6% and 62.3% of patients receiving bimekizumab 160 and 320 mg throughout the study achieved ASAS40, respectively (NRI); similar ASAS40 response rates were observed in re-randomised patients. During the double-blind period, treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 26/60 (43.3%) patients receiving placebo and 92/243 (37.9%) receiving bimekizumab. CONCLUSIONS Bimekizumab provided rapid and sustained improvements in key outcome measures in patients with active AS, with no unexpected safety findings versus previous studies.

Abstract
Introduction: Aim of this study was to investigate whether there is a relationship between exercise level and sleep quality in AS patients.Method: In our study, 150 AS patients and 80 healthy controls were included. Physical activity levels of both groups were evaluated using International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ-s) short form. Sleep quality of the participants was evaluated using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Disease activity and functional status were measured by Bath AS Disease Activity Index and Bath AS Functional Index.Results: Subjective sleep quality, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance and Total PSQI scores were significantly higher in the patient group compared to healthy participants. The IPAQ score was found to be significantly lower in the patient group. Sleep disturbance, one of the components of PSQI, was found to be significantly higher in patients with low IPAQ score.Conclusions: Sleep disorders were found to be higher in AS patients than normal population and physical activity levels of AS patients were lower than normal population. In addition, Sleep disturbance was found to be high in patients with low physical activity. Therefore, it should be remembered that one of the causes of sleep disorders in AS patients may be related to low physical activity.

Abstract
The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare sleep outcomes of AS patients and controls. Six electronic databases were searched: PubMed, Embase, IndMed, Cochrane Library, CNKI and Web of Science. Statistical analyses were executed using Revman 5.3 software. Nine studies and a total of 3169 participants were included in the meta-analysis. When sleep was assessed using PSQI, significant differences were observed in subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep efficiency, sleep disorders, sleep medication use and total PSQI between patients with AS and controls, and subjective sleep quality was most severely affected. In PSG, eight variables of sleep quality (stage I sleep, stage II sleep, slow wave sleep, rapid eye movement, arousal index, periodic leg movement index, sleep latency, sleep efficiency) were lower in AS patients than in controls. Three variables of sleep quality assessed by USI (estimated sleep time, sleep sufficiency index, number of awakenings per night) and two variables of sleep quality assessed by MOS sleep scale (sleep disturbance scale, sleep problem index II) were lower in AS patients than in controls. It indicated that AS patients experience more serious sleep disorders. Early recognition and appropriate interventions are essential to improve patients' sleep quality.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) is a well-recognized, frequent and compromising complication among patients on hemodialysis. Despite advancement in basic medical sciences, CKD-aP is still a major complication and a challenge for both physicians and patients to manage. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of CKD-aP among hemodialysis patients in Malaysia, to determine the impact of CKD-aP on sleep quality and any factors associated with CKD-aP. Method A multi-centered, cross-sectional study design was conducted from February 2017 to September 2017 at a tertiary hospital and its affiliated dialysis centers, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Included were patients > 18 years of age who were undergoing hemodialysis and could understand Malay. Participants were asked to fill the Malay 5D-itch scale and the Malay Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) upon recruitment. Results A total of 334/334 patients were recruited (response rate = 100%). The majority were male (59.6%) and Chinese (61.7%). A total of 61.3% had pruritus, of which most patients (63.4%) reported that their pruritus was mild. More than half (54.1%) reported that they slept > 6 h, and 93.2% experienced no sleep disturbances during the night. However; the overall PSQI median score [IQR] was 6.0 [5.0–9.0]. No significant association was found between demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with the severity of pruritus. Patients with moderate to severe pruritus were found to be 5.47 times more likely to experience poor sleep quality as compared to patients with mild or no pruritus. Conclusion In Malaysia, the prevalence of CKD-aP was 61.3%, of which the majority reported that their pruritus was mild. Patients with moderate to severe pruritus were found to be 5.47 times more likely to experience poor sleep quality as compared to patients with mild or no pruritus.

Relationship between dementia and ankylosing spondylitis: A nationwide, population-based, retrospective longitudinal cohort study. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0210335. [PMID: 30703142 PMCID: PMC6354978 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0210335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2018] [Accepted: 12/20/2018] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Among a variety of comorbidities of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), the association between dementia and AS by using an extensive dataset from the Korean National Health Insurance System was evaluated in this study. We extracted 15,547 newly diagnosed AS subjects among the entire Korean population and excluded wash-out patients (n = 162) and patients that were inappropriate for cohort match (n = 1192). Finally, 14,193 subjects were chosen as the AS group, and through 1:5 age- and sex-stratified matching, 70,965 subjects were chosen as the control group. We evaluated patient demographics, household incomes, and comorbidities, including hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. The prevalence of overall dementia (1.37%) and Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) (0.99%) in the AS group was significantly higher than in the control group (0.87% and 0.63%), respectively. The adjusted hazard ratio of the AS group for overall dementia (1.758) and AD (1.782) showed statistical significance also. On the other hand, the prevalence of vascular dementia did not differ significantly between the two groups. Subgroup analyses revealed the following risk factors for dementia in the AS group: male gender, greater than 65 years in age, fair income (household income greater than 20% of the median), urban residency, no diabetes, and no hypertension. From the nationwide, population-based, retrospective, longitudinal cohort study, AS patients showed a significantly higher prevalence of overall dementia and Alzheimer’s dementia. Comprehensive patient assessment using our subgroup analysis could help to prevent dementia in patients suffering from AS.

Int J Rheum Dis 2018; 22:275-279. [PMID: 30565868 DOI: 10.1111/1756-185x.13447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2018] [Revised: 10/09/2018] [Accepted: 10/23/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
AIM Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) affects sleep quality. Jenkins Sleep Scale (JSS) Evaluation Questionnaire is a simple and easy to understand scale. The aim of this study is to constitute validity and reliability of JSS-TR in AS patients. METHODS Jenkins Sleep Scale was translated and culturally adapted by using guidelines. Clinical and demographic data of AS patients were noted. Correlations with other functional parameters such as Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue (MAF) scale, Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to assess convergent validity of JSS-TR (Turkish version). Discriminant validity was also assessed. Shapiro-Wilk test was used as a test of normality. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (rho) was used to assess the relation. RESULTS Sixty patients (24 female and 36 male) with mean age of 39.6 ± 10.8 years were recruited. The JSS-TR took an average of 1.5 minutes (±30 seconds) to complete. JSS-TR had the strongest correlation with PSQI scores (ρ = 0.75) and moderate-strong correlations with MAF, ASQoL, and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) scores. There was insignificant correlation with non-clinical parameters. CONCLUSIONS JSS-TR is a valid, simple and feasible sleep instrument that can be easily applied to AS patients both in research and clinical settings.

Sleep disorders in patients with psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis. Reumatologia 2018; 56:301-306. [PMID: 30505012 PMCID: PMC6263298 DOI: 10.5114/reum.2018.79501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2018] [Accepted: 09/14/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives To assess and measure occurrence of sleep disorders in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and psoriasis (Ps). Material and methods The study included 62 patients with psoriatic arthritis and 52 patients with psoriasis. The measurement of sleep quality was conducted using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the evaluation of fatigue by the fatigue subscale of the FACIT-F questionnaire and the patient's quality of life by the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ). The psoriasis severity was determined using the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) and the activity of arthritis by the disease activity score of 28 joints (DAS 28). The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to assess the severity of pain. Results Poor sleep quality was found in 67.7% of PsA patients, 57.7% in Ps patients and 14.6% within the control group. Sleeping disorders in patients with PsA and Ps were related to worse quality of life and intense fatigue. Methotrexate treatment was not related to sleeping disorders, but an improvement in sleep quality was observed in both PsA and Ps patients who were treated with anti TNF-α antibodies (p < 0.001 and p = 0.032 respectively). Following the use of the linear regression model, the following factors worsen the sleep quality in PsA: pain (R2 = 0.462, p < 0.001), tender joint count (R2 = 0.434, p < 0.001), C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration (R2 = 0.391, p < 0.001), patient's age (R2 = 0.284, p = 0.003) and duration of psoriasis (R2 = 0.166, p = 0.006). In Ps patients the factors were: severity of skin lesions (R2 = 0.329, p < 0.001), duration of psoriasis (R2 = 0.290, p = 0.004) and patient's age (R2 = 0.282, p = 0.019). Conclusions Poor sleep quality in patients with PsA or Ps is a common symptom. Sleep disorders are more frequent in patients with PsA than in those with psoriasis.

Abstract
Background Osteoarthritis is a prevalent chronic disease that impacts quality of life and imposes a heavy economic burden. Despite this there is no confirmed treatment that could prevent progressive destruction of osteoarthritic joints. Mesenchymal stem cells with their regenerative and immunosuppressive properties have emerged as a potential therapy. Case presentation This case study describes the impact of autologous adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction treatment on a 27-year-old Australian woman with osteoarthritis and multiple comorbidities of ankylosing spondylitis, chronic pain syndrome, and post-traumatic stress disorder as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, and Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score. Following standardized stromal vascular fraction treatment protocols for osteoarthritis of her hips and knee, the functional status of her hips was measured by Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score at 3 months, 6 months, and 3 years. Conclusions Our patient showed dramatic improvements to her quality of life and symptoms of osteoarthritis were reduced. Interestingly, along with improvements in her knee and hips her other comorbidities such as ankylosing spondylitis, depression, anxiety, and fatigue exhibited marked improvement. She ceased the use of a wheelchair and walking support and, with increased mobility, had gained independence. These findings are suggestive of the therapeutic effects of stromal vascular fraction.

Abstract
Sleep disturbance is prevalent among patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and is considered a multifactorial issue. The study was designed to investigate sleep disturbance and its associated factors in AS outpatients in Southwest China. Patients were recruited by convenience sampling in this cross-sectional study. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Bath AS Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), the Bath AS Functional Index (BASFI), the Bath AS Patient Global Score (BAS-G), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used to assess sleep quality, disease activity, function status, global well-being, depression, and anxiety. Spearman's correlation, t test, ANOVA, and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the associated factors of sleep disturbance. Of the 281 outpatients included in the study, 190 (67.6%) patients had sleep disturbance. The married patients, the patients with extra-spinal manifestation, depression and anxiety, longer duration of diagnostic delay, higher disease activity, worse functional status and global well-being, high level of pain, and fatigue, had poorer sleep quality (P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed age (β = 0.087, P = 0.102), BAS-G (β = 0.181, P = 0.003), fatigue (β = 0.170, P = 0.002), anxiety (β = 0.151, P = 0.002) and nocturnal back pain (β = 0.192, P = 0.001), extra-spinal manifestation (β = 0.120, P = 0.012), and duration of diagnostic delay (β = 0.174, P = 0.001) were the contributors to PSQI. Sleep disturbance is common in AS patients in Southwest China. It may be useful to keep regular exercise, strengthen the management of pain, relieve anxiety, and prevent and treat extra-spinal manifestation for improving sleep quality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that is associated with poor sleep quality. OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between disease activity and sleep quality in patients with AS and to evaluate the potential effect of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) treatment on sleep quality and pattern. METHODS Fifty-nine patients with AS were consecutively included in the study. Twenty-eight patients (47.5%) were receiving anti-TNF, and 31 (52.5%) patients were receiving only nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Demographic and treatment characteristics, spinal mobility measurements, disease activity measurements, and sleep questionnaire results of each patient were recorded. Each patient underwent a polysomnography examination for the evaluation of sleep patterns. RESULTS When compared with the patients on NSAID treatment, patients receiving anti-TNF treatment had significantly greater total sleep time and sleep efficiency (P = 0.003 and P < 0.001, respectively). They had a significantly lower (better) Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, sleep onset latency, number of awakenings, and arousal index (P < 0.001, for all). Moreover, they had a significantly shorter superficial sleep period (stage 1) and a significantly longer rapid eye movement sleep period (P < 0.001 and P = 0.02, respectively). Higher indexes of disease activity (Bath AS Disease Activity Index, Bath AS Functional Index, and visual analog scale) were reflecting poorer sleep quality. CONCLUSIONS Sleep quality and pattern was markedly better in patients with AS on anti-TNF compared with the patients on NSAID treatments. Increased disease activity can impair the quality of sleep in AS. Improved sleep quality and pattern in patients on anti-TNF treatment may be related to improved disease activity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between sleep quality (SQ) and disease activity (DA) in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to evaluate the response to anti-tumor necrosis factor α (anti-TNF-α) therapy on sleep disorders. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 34 patients who met the modified New York classification criteria for AS were included in this prospective study. Patients were divided into two groups as follows: Group I (n = 15) with high DA and receiving anti-TNF-α therapy, and Group II (n = 19) in remission. DA was assessed by the Bath AS Disease Activity Index. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and polysomnography (PSG) were used to determine disorders and patterns of sleep, respectively, in both groups at baseline as well as at the third month of anti-TNF-α therapy in Group I. RESULTS Baseline evaluation revealed impaired SQ in 57.9% of all patients. PSG demonstrated obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, snoring and periodic leg movements in 73.7%, 74.4% and 26.3% of patients, respectively. Prior to anti-TNF-α therapy, PSQI and snoring score were significantly higher in Group I (P = 0.0001, P = 0.012, respectively). Although there was a significant reduction in PSQI scores in Group I (P = 0.005) at the third month of anti-TNF-α therapy, no change was observed in PSG parameters (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Sleep disorders increase in AS, particularly in patients with high DA. Anti-TNF-α therapy has improved SQ without any improvement in PSG. Therefore, it may be concluded that PSG parameters might be more associated with disease pathogenesis rather than DA in patients with AS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify priorities among comorbidities in axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) and recommend how to follow them from an eminently practical perspective. METHODS A multidisciplinary group was selected (10 rheumatologists-six of them experts in AxSpA-, 2 general practitioners, an internist, a cardiologist, a gastroenterologist and a psychologist). In a first discussion meeting, the scope and users were established and a list of comorbidities was voted based on frequency and impact. The panelists had to defend the inclusion of each comorbidity/item in the document with consistent arguments. Four panelists and two methodologists developed systematic reviews on controversial topics. In a second meeting, the results of the reviews and the arguments concerning the items to be included were presented. After the meeting, the final document was drafted. RESULTS The final document includes two checklists, one for health professionals and another for patients; they incorporate cardiovascular risk, renal comorbidities, gastrointestinal risk, lifestyle, risk of infections and vaccinations, pulmonary involvement, concomitant medication, psycho-affective disorders, osteoporosis, and risk of fracture. In addition, the document reflects the arguments favoring the inclusion of each item and how to record the items for subsequent collection. The panel considered it also appropriate to likewise establish «practices to avoid» applicable to comorbidity in AxSpA. CONCLUSIONS Two checklists and a list of situations to avoid were generated to facilitate the management of comorbidities in AxSpA. In a future step, their utility and acceptance will be tested by a broad group of users that includes doctors, patients and nurses.

Abstract
[Purpose] This study aimed to compare the most common dominant affective temperaments in Ankylosing Spondylitis patients and investigate the relationship between the dominant affective temperaments and pain levels, disease activity, quality of life, current depression, and anxiety level in Ankylosing Spondylitis patients. [Subjects and Methods] Fifty-one patients diagnosed with axial spondiloartropathy and forty-two age- and gender-matched control subjects were included in this study. Disease duration, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, serum C-reactive protein, pain by the Visual Analog Scale, disease activity by the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index, functional status by the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index; psychological status by the Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory and overall health assessment by the Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life Scale were assessed in patients. The Turkish version of the Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris and San Diego Auto Questionnaire was used to determine the dominant affective temperament. [Results] There was no statistical difference in the distribution of temperament subtypes between patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis and the controls. Depressive, anxious, and cyclothymic temperament scores were higher in patients with high values on the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index and Visual Analog Scale. There was a correlation between anxious subtypes of affective temperament scores and the value of Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life Scale. Correlation analysis also found depressive, cyclothymic, irritable, and anxious temperament and psychiatric symptoms to be significantly related. [Conclusion] Affective temperament may contribute to symptoms of depression and anxiety in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis and may increase disease activity and may reduce their quality of life.

Abstract
This review explores the prevalence and factors associated with disturbed sleep for patients with ankylosing spondylitis and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis in order to clarify consistent findings in this otherwise disparate research field. The association of physical, demographic and psychological factors correlating with poor sleep was explored, and the effectiveness of interventions assessed. Ten electronic databases were searched: AMED, CINAHL, Embase, Medline, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, OpenGrey and BASE. Following application of inclusion and exclusion criteria, 29 articles were critically assessed on the basis of methodology, experimental design, ethics and quality of sleep data, leading to the selection of 15 studies for final review. Poor sleep was reported in 35-90% of patients with axial spondyloarthritis and is more prevalent within this clinical population compared to healthy control subjects. Disturbed sleep is an important aspect of disease for patients and reflects the severity of disease activity, pain, fatigue and functional disability. However, the direction of this relationship is undetermined. Associations with age, gender, years spent in education, quality of life and depression have also been demonstrated. Anti-TNF medication is effective in reducing poor sleep, and exercise has also produced beneficial results. Future research into poor sleep should take account of its multifactorial nature. There is also a current lack of research investigating non-pharmacological interventions or combination therapies. A standardised, validated measurement of poor sleep, appropriate for regular patient screening, would be a useful first step for future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the prevalence and determinants of anxiety and depression and to assess their impact on glycaemic control in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. SETTING Community-based investigation in Xuzhou, China. PARTICIPANTS 893 Chinese men and women aged 18-84 years who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. METHODS People with type 2 diabetes completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety and Depression Scales. Demographic and physiological characteristics were recorded. Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate the combined effect of factors associated with anxiety and depression and to assess the effects of anxiety and depression on glycaemic control. RESULTS The prevalence of depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms was 56.1% and 43.6%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that anxiety symptoms were associated with being woman, low income, chronic disease, depressive symptoms and poor sleep quality. Depressive symptoms were associated with being woman, older age, low education level, being single, diabetes complications, anxiety symptoms and poor sleep quality. Glycaemic control was not related to anxiety symptoms (OR=1.31, 95% CIs 0.94 to 1.67) or depressive symptoms (OR=1.23, 95% CI 0.85 to 1.63). A combination of depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms was associated with poor glycaemic control (relative excess risk due to interaction: 4.93, 95% CI 2.09 to 7.87; attributable proportion due to interaction: 0.27, 95% CI 0.12 to 0.45). CONCLUSIONS There was a high prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms in this Chinese sample of participants, although depression and anxiety were not singly associated with glycaemic control. However, a combination of depressive and anxiety symptoms was negatively correlated with glycaemic control in participants with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a common inflammatory rheumatic disease. A higher prevalence of psychiatric comorbidities, including depressive disorder, has been proven in patients with AS. However, a clear temporal causal relationship between AS and psychiatric disorders has not been well established. We performed a nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study to analyze the relationship between AS and the subsequent development of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, and sleep disorders. METHODS We identified subjects who were newly diagnosed with AS between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2008, in the Taiwan National Health Insurance (NHI) Research Database. A comparison cohort was constructed of patients without AS who were matched according to age and sex. All patients with AS and control patients were observed until diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, or until death or withdrawal from the NHI system, or until December 31, 2009. RESULTS The AS cohort consisted of 2331 patients and the comparison cohort consisted of 9324 matched control patients without AS. The adjusted HR for depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, and sleep disorders in subjects with AS were higher than those of the controls during followup (HR 1.718, 95% CI 1.303-2.265; HR 1.848, 95% CI 1.369-2.494; and HR 1.494, 95% CI 1.031-2.162, respectively). CONCLUSION AS might increase the risk of a subsequent newly diagnosed depressive disorder, anxiety disorder, or sleep disorder, but not schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. These observations highlight the need for psychiatric evaluation and intervention for patients with AS.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the relationship between mental and physical health in Chinese patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to identify the predictors of psychological status. METHODS Patients with AS (n=103) and healthy controls (n=121) were surveyed between 2010 and 2011 (cross-sectional study). The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index, pain visual analog scale, Health Assessment Questionnaire, revised Self-Rating Anxiety Scale, revised Self-Rating Depression Scale, and Short-Form 36 questionnaire were administered. RESULTS The frequency of anxiety and depression in patients with AS was higher than that in healthy controls (P<0.001). Severe disease status and reduced quality of life (QoL) were associated with anxiety and depression. Disease activity and somatic pain were more severe in the anxious and depressed subgroups. Impaired physical functioning (assessed by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index) was higher in the anxious and depressed subgroups, while measures of spinal mobility (assessed by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index) were not associated with depression. Lower QoL was observed in the depressed subgroup. CONCLUSION Low socioeconomic status, lack of health insurance, and fatigue contributed to depression in Chinese patients with AS. These patients may require a psychological care approach that is different from those of other countries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate psychiatric symptoms in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to investigate the relationship of the disease activity, functional capacity, pain, and fatigue with psychiatric symptoms. METHODS Eighty AS patients and 80 healthy controls were included in the study. Spinal pain by visual analog scale (pain VAS-rest), disease activity by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), functional capacity by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), and fatigue by Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue (MAF) were assessed in patients. Psychiatric symptoms were measured using the Symptom Checklist-90-R (SCL-90 R), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES). RESULTS SCL-90-R total and all subscale scores (except interpersonal sensitivity and psychoticism) and BDI scores were significantly higher in the AS group compared to control group. PSQI total and all subscale scores were significantly higher in the AS group. State anxiety scale score was significantly higher and RSES score was significantly lower in the AS group. Psychiatric symptoms (except Rosenberg Self-Esteem score) were significantly correlated with BASDAI, BASFI, pain VAS rest, and MAF scores. CONCLUSION Psychiatric symptoms are often seen in patients with AS. Disease activity, functional capacity, pain and fatigue were correlated with psychiatric symptoms but self-esteem was not. Therefore, psychiatric symptoms should be taken into consideration in the management of AS.
