Higher Bone Turnover Is Related to Spinal Radiographic Damage and Low Bone Mineral Density in Ankylosing Spondylitis Patients with Active Disease: A Cross-Sectional Analysis

INTRODUCTION: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is characterized by excessive bone formation and bone loss. Our aim was to investigate the association of bone turnover markers (BTM) with spinal radiographic damage and bone mineral density (BMD) in AS patients with active disease. METHODS: 201 consecutive...
