| Popis: | BackgroundThe deleterious effect of smoking is frequently studied in inflammatory diseases such as spondyloarthritis (SA) [1].ObjectivesThe objective of our study was to identify the consequences of smoking during AS.MethodsWe conducted a cross sectional study including patients followed for spondyloarthritis meeting the ASAS 2009 criteria. For each patient we collected the following parameters: age, age at onset of the disease, duration of progression, disease activity using BASDAI and ASDAS-CRP scores and structural damage using BASRI and mSASSS scores. We also measured sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP).Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software.ResultsWe included 140 patients. Seventy-three percent were male (n=102). The mean age was 43 ± 12.9 years. The age of onset of the disease was 34.28 ± 12 years. The mean disease duration was 110 ± 107.8 months.Sixty patients were smokers (43%) at an average of 20.75 ± 16.09 pack-years.Mean ESR and CRP were 36.49 ± 27.22 mm and 29 ± 44.27 mg/L, respectively.The mean BASDAI and ASDAS-CRP were 3.68 ± 1.86 and 2.99 ± 0.98, respectively.The mean BASRI and mSASSS were 4.12 ± 3 and 10.26 ± 15.41, respectively.Smokers had significantly higher BASRI and mSASSS scores (BASRI: 5.02 ± 3.32 vs 3.47 ± 2.6; p=0.005 and mSASSS: 14.07 ± 17.56 vs 7.02 ± 12 .62; p=0.03).In addition, the number of packets year was correlated to mSASSS (r=0.399; p=0.01).On the other hand, we did not find any association between smoking and the following parameters: ESR, CRP, BASDAI or ASDAS-CRP.ConclusionAs reported in other studies, ours’ showed that structural damage was correlated with the number of pack-years [2]. Smoking was associated with this structural damage in SA regardless the inflammatory biomarkers and the disease activity. This suggests that control of structural damage in SA requires smoking cessation.References[1]Zhao SS, Goodson NJ, Robertson S, Gaffney K. Smoking in spondyloarthritis: unravelling the complexities.
