В проспективное интервенционное (индивидуальное профилактическое консультирование, «Школа по отказу от курения») исследование на закрытой когорте включено 194 пациента с РА. Длительность наблюдения составила 12 месяцев. Анализировались демографические и анамнестические данные, информация о наличии сопутствующих заболеваний, статус курения. Проводилась динамическая оценка активности РА по DAS28 (Disease Activity Score 28) с определением скорости оседания эритроцитов, интенсивности боли по визуальной аналоговой шкале исходно, через 3, 6 и 12 мес. Качество жизни оценивалось на 6-м и 12-м месяцах наблюдения с помощью опросников SF-36 (Short Form 36) и HAQ (Health Assessment Questionnaire).Результаты. На момент включения не было выявлено различий в группах продолживших и прекративших в будущем курить по показателям активности РА, HAQ и боли. У пациентов в группе отказа от курения к 6-му месяцу отмечались более низкие значения DAS28 (р=0,000002), а через 6 и 12 месяцев – более низкие значения HAQ и боли (р&lt;0,05). К концу года наблюдения ремиссия и низкая активность РА были зарегистрированы у 9 (40,9%) отказавшихся от курения и у 20 (13,8%) продолжавших курить (р=0,002). У пациентов, отказавшихся от курения, показатели физического функционирования, ролевого физического функционирования, а также общего состояния здоровья были статистически значимо лучше (p=0,015, р=0,013 и р=0,026 соответственно) на момент включения. Во всех доменах опросника SF-36 на 6-м и 12-м месяцах наблюдения показатели были статистически значимо лучшими у прекративших курить (все р&lt;0,05).Выводы. Результаты исследования показывают необходимость разработки и внедрения в клиническую практику образовательных программ по отказу от курения при РА.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Smoking is one of the main proven environmental factors that worsen the course and effectiveness of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment.The aim – to evaluate the effect of smoking cessation on rheumatoid arthritis activity, pain, and quality of life in patients during a one-year prospective follow-up.Material and methods. 194 patients included in the prospective intervention cohort (individual preventive counseling, “Smoking Cessation School”). The follow-up period was 12 months. Demographic and medical history data, information about comorbidity, and smoking status were analyzed. The activity of RA (Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28) with erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and the intensity of pain (using visual analogue scale (VAS)) were evaluated at baseline and after 3, 6, and 12 months. The quality of life was assessed at the 6th and 12th months of follow-up using the SF-36 (Short Form 36) questionnaire and the HAQ (Health Assessment Questionnaire).Results. At the time of baseline, there were no differences in the groups of those who continue to smoke and those who quit in the future in terms of activity RA, HAQ and VAS (all p&gt;0.05). In patients in the smoking cessation group, disease activity was significantly lower by 6 months (p=0.000002), as were the HAQ and VAS values after 6 and 12 months (all p&lt;0.05). By the end of the follow-up year, remission and low RA activity were recorded in 9 (40.9%) of those who quit smoking and 20 (13.8%) who continued (p=0.002). In patients who had given up smoking, physical functioning, role-playing physical functioning, and general health were significantly better (p=0.015, p=0.013, and p=0.026, respectively) at the time of a baseline. In all domains of the SF-36 questionnaire, at 6 and 12 months of follow-up were statistically significantly better for those who stopped smoking (all p&gt;0.05).Conclusion. The study shows the need to develop and implement educational programs on smoking cessation in RA in clinical practice.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>курение</kwd><kwd>ревматоидный артрит</kwd><kwd>отказ от курения</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>smoking</kwd><kwd>rheumatoid arthritis</kwd><kwd>smoking cessation</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Gwinnutt JM, Verstappen SM, Humphreys JH.
