TY - JOUR T1 - Aksiyel Spondiloartritte C-Reaktif Protein/Albumin Oranının Hastalık Aktivitesi ile İlişkisi TT - The Relationship Between C-Reaktif Protein/Albumin Ratio and Disease Activity in Axial Spondyloarthritis AU - Oruçoğlu, Nurdan AU - Önder, Mustafa Erkut AU - Omar, Fırat PY - 2024 DA - February Y2 - 2023 DO - 10.52827/hititmedj.1346698 JF - Hitit Medical Journal JO - Hitit Medical Journal PB - Hitit University WT - DergiPark SN - 2687-4717 SP - 33 EP - 41 VL - 6 IS - 1 LA - tr AB - Amaç: C-reaktif protein/albümin oranı (CAO) yakın zamanda yeni bir inflamatuar biyobelirteç olarak tanımlanmış ve inflamasyonun belirlenmesinde birçok hastalıkta potansiyel rolü ortaya konulmuştur. Bu çalışma, aksiyel spondiloartritte (axSpA) hastalık aktivitesinin belirlenmesinde CAO’nun rolünü araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma retrospektif vaka-kontrol çalışmasıdır. Toplam 128 hasta ve 111 yaş-cinsiyet uyumlu sağlıklı kontrol çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Serum albumin, C-reaktif protein (CRP), eritrosit sedimantasyon hızı (ESH) kaydedildi. CAO, serum CRP/Albumin şeklinde hesaplanmıştır. Hastalık aktivitesini belirlemek için Bath Ankilozan Spondilit Hastalık Aktivite İndeksi (BASDAI) ve Ankilozan Spondilit Hastalık Aktivite Skoru-CRP (ASDAS-CRP) skorları kullanıldı. Hastalar ASDAS-CRP skoruna göre iki alt gruba ayrıldı: ≥1,3 aktif hastalık, KW - C-reaktif protein KW - Aksiyal Spondiloartrit KW - albumin KW - C-reaktif protein/albumin oranı inflamasyon N2 - Objective: The C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) has recently emerged as a novel inflammatory biomarker, indicating its potential role in determining inflammation in various disorders. This study aims to investigate the role of CAO in determining disease activity in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).Materials and Methods: This study is a retrospective case-control study. A total of 128 patients with axSpA and 111 age-gender-matched healthy controls were included in the study. Serum albumin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were recorded. CAR was calculated as serum CRP/Albumin. The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) and Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score-CRP (ASDAS-CRP) scores were used to determine disease activity. Patients were divided into two subgroups based on the ASDAS-CRP score: ≥1.3 was considered active disease, and CR - McVeigh CM, Cairns AP. Diagnosis and management of ankylosing spondylitis.
