Hedgehog (Hh) signaling has been widely acknowledged to play essential roles in many
developmental processes, including endochondral ossification and growth plate …

Purpose This review aims at investigating pathophysiological mechanisms in
spondyloarthritis (SpA). Analysis of genetic factors, immunological pathways, and …

Abstract MicroRNA‐21 (miR‐21) can induce proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal
stem cells (MSCs) to promote bone formation, we therefore aimed to investigate whether …

Simple Summary Chronic inflammatory arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and
spondyloarthritis (SpA), often have a significant impact on bone tissue, where bone is not …

Inflammatory arthritis has been reported to be associated with the development of
osteoporosis. Recent research has investigated the mechanisms of bone metabolism in …

Objectives To describe low dose Computed Tomography (ldCT) Hounsfield Units (HU) two-
year change-from-baseline values (expressing trabecular bone density changes) and …

Objective Studying vertebral bone loss in radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA) has
been challenging due to ectopic bone formation. We cross-sectionally analysed low-dose …

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate spinal radiographic progression in
specific age ranges of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients. Methods: Longitudinal data for …

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) has a heterogenous clinical phenotype with manifestations in a
number of different organs and systems. Whilst PsA is typified by enthesitis, synovitis and …

Objective Using diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI)‐derived apparent diffusion coefficient
(ADC), we aimed to determine the relationship between intensity of spinal inflammation and …
