Objectives: To assess the ability of a previously trained deep-learning algorithm to identify the presence of inflammation on MRI of sacroiliac joints (SIJ) in a large external validation set of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA).
Methods: Baseline SIJ MRI scans were collected from two prospective randomised controlled trials in patients with non-radiographic (nr-) and radiographic (r-) axSpA (RAPID-axSpA: NCT01087762 and C-OPTIMISE: NCT02505542) and were centrally evaluated by two expert readers (and adjudicator in case of disagreement) for the presence of inflammation by the 2009 Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) definition. Scans were processed by the deep-learning algorithm, blinded to clinical information and central expert readings.
Evaluation of Sacroiliac Joint Shape in Women with Ankylosing Spondylitis According to Mode of Birth Delivery: A Retrospective Study.

: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic progressive inflammatory process of the axial skeleton and sacroiliac joints (SIJ). Symptoms typically appear between the ages of 20 and 40, although there are also cases of juvenile-onset AS. This suggests that most patients with AS are of reproductive age at the time of diagnosis.

Background: Currently, the pathophysiology of new bone formation in radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA) remains unclear. Cellular elements and their secreted bone turnover markers might be one of the underlying mechanisms that drive the new bone formation. Our study aimed to investigate the role of bone turnover markers in r-axSpA patients with fatty lesions.

Background: A lumbosacral transitional vertebra (LTV) is a congenital anomaly of the caudal vertebral column. It has been associated with asymmetrical canine hip dysplasia (CHD) and cauda equina syndrome (CES) in German Shepherd dogs. This retrospective cross-sectional study aims to report the potential influence of asymmetric LTV on pelvic anatomy using ventrodorsal (VD) radiographs.

Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain is one of the most prevalent reasons for disability, it affects the contraction ratio of the muscles of the back. Imaging is critical for diagnosing back muscles. The purpose of this study was to look at changes in the muscle contraction ratio of the lumbar multifidus (LM) and erector spinae (ES) in unilateral SIJ pain.
