Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Hip
Conditions
Brief summary
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a chronic inflammatory disease in children affecting mobility and physical function. The hip involvement represents a frequent complication in JIA patients. The assessment of hip damage becomes a mandatory step in disease monitoring. However, radiological scoring was not standardized. This study aimed to compare the two scoring systems previously proposed, examine their repeatability and their intra and inter agreement.
Interventions
RADIATIONpelvic radiograph
Patients with hip involvement underwent a pelvic radiograph
