Spondyloarthritis and Nutrition

The food composition and consumption of certain foods could be associated with a higher or lower inflammatory activity of spondyloarthritis and consequently changes in the quality of life of patients. This has been shown in other chronic inflammatory disease.

In order to highlight a profile or nutritional profiles associated with the activity of the disease, we chose to carry out observational pilot study using a qualitative food survey, which will be submitted to all patients with spondyloarthritis. The general demographic data and the data of the disease will be collected by the investigating physician at the same time, as well as possible confounding factors: comorbidities, physical activity, treatments.

Primary outcomes

  1. Nutritional survey

    Time frame: Day 0

    internal questionnaire, correlation between patient's nutrition profile and disease activity

  2. Disease activity

    Time frame: Day 0

    Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), score ASDAS, correlation between patient's nutrition profile and disease's activity

Secondary outcomes

  1. Physical activity

    Time frame: Day 0

    International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)

  2. Assess the quality of life

    Time frame: Day 0

    Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (ASQol)

  3. Digestive symptoms

    Time frame: Day 0

    Internal questionnaire, correlation between patient's nutrition profile and digestive symptoms The digestive symptom questionnaire had 6 questions, one for each symptom: constipation or hard stools, diarrhoea or frequent stools, stomach pains, gastroesophageal reflux or pyrosis, abdominal pain, and bloating. Each question was scored between 0 to 4: 0 (never occurred), 1 (rarely), 2 (sometimes), 3 (most of the time), and 4 (always). Thus, the cumulative score ranged from 0 to 24

  4. Fatigue

    Time frame: Day 0

    Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) instrument. The FACIT-F instrument has 13 items with a score ranging from 0 to 52: lower scores indicating more fatigue
