🌟 ASAS researchers recommend using axSpA as the overarching term for axial spondyloarthritis. They prefer radiographic-axSpA over ankylosing spondylitis. These changes aim to standardize terminology and improve clarity in diagnosis and treatment.

🤔How should we "lump" or "split" diseases in the #Spondyloarthritis spectrum?
Michelena, @AlexSepriano, @LeedsTeamSpA, et al used a data-driven approach to identify 5 groups with significant overlap between axial/peripheral phenotypes. @RheumJnl academic.oup.com/rheumatolog…

Longer diagnostic delay is associated with increased incidence of new uveitis and #IBD in #ankylosingspondylitis, highlighting the need to improve diagnostic strategies to reduce the time from first symptom to diagnosis. By @xabiermich @NASSexercise

Older age at back pain onset and peripheral arthritis were associated with shorter delay,
while uveitis was associated with longer diagnostic delay.
Patients with higher socioeconomic vulnerability had longer diagnostic delay independent of clinical factors.
