ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate spinemagnetic resonance imaging(MRI) findings in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) and to analyze the correlation between imaging and clinical manifestation.Methods The clinical data of patients with axial SpA were recorded.All patients underwent whole spine MRI scanning.The MRI findings of spinal involvement were explored.Moreover,the correlation between lesions in spinal MRI and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index(BASDAI),Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI),Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI),nocturnal pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score,back pain VAS score,global disease activity VAS score,Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity score (ASDAS),erythrocyte sedimentation rate,C-reactive protein was analyzed.Results Thirty-three patients with axial SpA were included in this study.The image abnormalities of the spine were confirmed in 29 axial SpA patients by MRI,including Romanus lesion,Andersson lesion,the inflammation of facet joints and syndesmophyte.In correlation study,BASMI was positively correlated to the numbers of acute Romanus lesions,chronic Romanus lesions,chronic Andersson lesions and whole spinal lesions(r =0.440,P<0.05; r =0.483,P<0.05; r=0.421,P<0.05; r=0.589,P < 0.05 respectively).There was a statistically significant correlation between chronic Andersson lesions and BASFI(r =0.392,P <0.05).But no significant associations were found between MRI lesions and other clinical findings.Conclusions MRI lesions in axial SpA were associated with findings reflecting the spinal function,which can better guide the clinical treatment.
