简要总结
Mobility exercises are used in Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) patients to preserve and restore axial mobility, but there are no data regarding a specific rehabilitation program that includes flexibility alone and its association with resistance exercises in AS patients with stable disease activity. So, we assessed the effects of two exercise programs in terms of mobility, functional capacity, quality of life and disease activity in AS patients. Methods. Fifty-five sedentary AS patients with a Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Activity Index (BASDAI) <4 were included.
详细描述
The AS patients were randomly assigned into three groups, to receive a mobility exercise program (M) or mobility plus elastic resistance exercise program (M+R) or no exercise (C). The exercises group sessions were conducted twice per week for 16 weeks. This supervised program comprised 30 minutes of outdoor stretching and mobility exercises for the spine and limbs (M). After the flexibility program, M+R group carry out more 30 minutes of elastic resistance exercises. The mobility, disease activity and functional parameters were evaluated at baseline and after 16 weeks, with the evaluator blinded to the treatment group.

结局指标
主要结局
FUNCTIONAL INDEX
时间窗: Baseline and 16 Weeks
BASFI - Bath ankylosing spondylitis functional index. A scale from 0 to 10 (lower scores means better functional capacity), results are measured by mean and standard deviation.
Mobility Index
时间窗: Baseline and 16 weeks
Bath ankylosing spondylitis motion index. A mean of five mobility measures committed by Ankylosing Spondylitis disease. Higher results means higher limitations in mobility (units of measure from 0 to 10)
Disease Activity Index
时间窗: Baseline and 16 Weeks
BASDAI - Bath ankylosing spondylitis disease activity index. Scale from 0 to 6. Higher scores means worst disease activity. Numbers are expressed in average (SD)
Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Scale -Disease Activity
时间窗: Baseline and 16 Weeks
Scores vary from 0 to 10, and higher than 4 scores are indicative of disease activity. Data are expressed by means and SD
Global Evaluation Self Reported
时间窗: Baseline and 16 Weeks
Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Global is a self reported global score varying from 0 to 10. Higher scores means worst health evaluation. Expressed by means and standard deviation.
