Journal ArticleDOI
The Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) handbook: a guide to assess spondyloarthritis
Joachim Sieper,M. Rudwaleit,Xenofon Baraliakos,J Brandt,Jürgen Braun,Ruben Burgos-Vargas,Maxime Dougados,K.-G. Hermann,Robert Landewé,Walter P. Maksymowych,D. van der Heijde +10 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive handbook on the most relevant aspects for the assessments of spondyloarthritis, covering classification criteria, MRI and x rays for sacroiliac joints and the spine, a complete set of all measurements relevant for clinical trials and international recommendations for the management of SpA are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of etanercept versus sulfasalazine in early axial spondyloarthritis on active inflammatory lesions as detected by whole-body MRI (ESTHER): a 48-week randomised controlled trial.
I. H. Song,K.-G. Hermann,Hildrun Haibel,Christian E. Althoff,Joachim Listing,G.-R. Burmester,Andreas Krause,M. Bohl-Bühler,Bruce Freundlich,Martin Rudwaleit,J. Sieper +10 more
TL;DR: In patients with early axial spondyloarthritis active inflammatory lesions detected by whole-body MRI improved significantly more in etanercept versus sulfasalazine-treated patients, and correlated with a good clinical response in the etanorcept group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflammation in ankylosing spondylitis: a systematic description of the extent and frequency of acute spinal changes using magnetic resonance imaging
Xenofon Baraliakos,Robert Landewé,K.-G. Hermann,Joachim Listing,W. Golder,J Brandt,M. Rudwaleit,M. Bollow,J. Sieper,D. van der Heijde,J. Braun +10 more
TL;DR: Inflammation was found more commonly in the thoracic spine (TS) than in the cervical (CS) or the lumbar spine (LS) with both techniques, and appears more frequently in the TS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between active inflammatory lesions in the spine and sacroiliac joints and new development of chronic lesions on whole-body MRI in early axial spondyloarthritis: results of the ESTHER trial at week 48.
In-Ho Song,K.-G. Hermann,Hildrun Haibel,Christian E. Althoff,Denis Poddubnyy,Joachim Listing,A. Weiss,Bruce Freundlich,M. Rudwaleit,J. Sieper +9 more
TL;DR: There is a close interaction between inflammation, tumour necrosis factor blockade and the development of fatty lesions in subchondral bone marrow of patients with early axial spondyloarthritis treated either with etanercept or sulfasalazine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Knee osteoarthritis. Efficacy of a new method of contrast-enhanced musculoskeletal ultrasonography in detection of synovitis in patients with knee osteoarthritis in comparison with magnetic resonance imaging
I.-H. Song,Christian E. Althoff,K.-G. Hermann,Alexander K. Scheel,T Knetsch,M Schoenharting,Carola Werner,G.-R. Burmester,Marina Backhaus +8 more
TL;DR: Using CE-MUS and performing time/intensity analysis has shown to be a good model for evaluation of an inflammatory process in the setting of knee OA in the superior recess and was more sensitive than B-mode and Power Doppler sonography as well as contrast medium enhancement.
