Muscle Architecture in Ankylosing Spondylitis and Its Relationship With Clinical Parameters
In Brief
An observational study for Ankylosing Spondylitis and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this observational study is to determine whether there is a decrease in muscle mass and the relationship between lower extremity skeletal muscle mass, muscle strength and disease activity in Ankylosing spondylitis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a relationship between the muscle thickness and pennation angle of the quadriceps, Gastrocnemius medialis and lateralis, Vastus medialis and lateralis and tibialis anterior muscles with disease activity and muscle strength? * Are there any differences in the results of morphological parameters of lower extremity muscles between Ankylosing spondylitis and voluntary participants? Researchers will compare voluntary participants to see if any difference in lower muscle morphological parameters.
