Female Sex, Age, and Unfavorable Response to Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitors in Patients With Axial Spondyloarthritis: Results of Statistical and Artificial Intelligence-Based Data Analyses of a National Multicenter Prospective Registry.

Objective: Real-world studies are needed to identify factors associated with response to biologic therapies in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (SpA). The objective was to assess sex differences in response to tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) and to explore possible risk factors associated with TNFi efficacy.

Methods: A total of 969 patients with axial SpA (315 females, 654 males) enrolled in the BIOBADASER registry (2000-2019) who initiated a TNFi (first, second, or further lines) were studied.

Development and content validation of a self-completed, electronic Pediatric Asthma Symptom Diary.

Background: Childhood asthma is an important unmet need. To date, patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for children with asthma have used a combination of caregiver or proxy-reported and self-reported measures. No comprehensive measure is available to assess the severity and impact of daytime and nighttime asthma symptoms and rescue medication use for self-completion by children aged 6-11 years.
