FEATURES OF REDUCING THE RADIOLOGICAL PROGRESSION OF SPINAL CORD DAMAGE IN PATIENTS WITH REACTIVE ARTHRITIS

Abstract

Reactive arthritis (ReA) represents a heterogeneous group of inflammatory joint diseases associated with urogenital or intestinal infections. The chronic recurrent course of the disease can lead to chronic inflammation of joints, spine, or sacroiliac joints. The heterogeneity of ReA is one of the reasons for the divergent results of laboratory studies, including those related to cytokine status.
