Introducing the new international AIDA Registry for Spondyloarthritis
The international AIDA registry for spondyloarthritis is established to collect data on axial or peripheral joint manifestations that occur in patients affected by diseases included in other AIDA registries.
It is known, in fact, that a percentage of patients affected by FMF and other monogenic diseases may present axial spondyloarthritis. Cases of spondyloarthritis have also been described in other conditions such as VEXAS syndrome and undifferentiated autoinflammatory diseases. Similarly, patients affected by multifactorial autoinflammatory diseases such as Behçet's disease may also suffer from spondyloarthritis. Patients already included in various AIDA registries may be duplicated in the AIDA registry for spondyloarthritis in order to thoroughly study their spondyloarthritis-related manifestations. In order to benefit from a control group in future studies, we ask you to also include in the registry an adequate number of spondyloarthritis cases not associated with a known autoinflammatory disease.
