Материал и методы. МРТ наиболее болезненного отдела позвоночника и КПС была проведена 58 пациентам с АС исходно и через 12 нед. Использовались режимы МРТ T2 STIR и T1 (SIGNA EXCITE, General Electrics; 0,35 Т, матрица 288×192). Наличие отека костного мозга расценивалось как активное воспаление. Для оценки активных ВИ в наиболее болезненном отделе позвоночника использовался метод счета modified ASspiMRI-a, в КПС - Лидский метод счета. МРТ оценивалась независимо, двумя специалистами, один из них не знал о номере визита и проводимом лечении. Пациенты были разделены на две группы, в первую вошли пациенты, которым впервые назначались ингибиторы ФНО α, в другую - те, которым впервые назначались НПВП. Обе группы были сопоставимы по демографическим показателям. Результаты. Средний уровень боли в исследуемом отделе позвоночника достоверно снизился в обеих группах: с 5,7±1,7 до 2,3±1,8 в группе ингибиторов ФНО α (р=0,000006), с 4,8±2,3 до 2,6±2,3 в группе НПВП (р=0,00001). Значительное уменьшение МРТ-признаков ВИ в позвоночнике через 12 нед лечения отмечалось у пациентов, получавших ингибиторы ФНО а (n=28), с 4,8±2,3 до 1,6±1,6 (p=0,00001); при этом у больных (n=17) с исходно большим числом очагов ВИ (&gt;5) эта динамика была более выражена, чем в группе (n=11) с исходно меньшим количеством ВИ (&lt;5) (средняя величина ∆ соответственно 4,3±1,5 и 1,6±1,4; р=0,0003). У пациентов, получавших НПВП (n=30), уменьшение числа ВИ на МРТ позвоночника было недостоверным (с 2,8±2,5 до 2,3 ±2,1; р=0,17). Регресс активного сакроилиита отмечался через 12 нед у пациентов из группы ингибиторов ФНО α (n=28) со снижением Лидского счета с 2,1±2,0 до 0 (p=0,01). Исходно 28,5% пациентов имели признаки активного сакроилиита на МРТ, через 12 нед они не выявлены ни в одном случае. Уменьшение активного сакроилиита наблюдалось также у пациентов из группы НПВП (n=30), но недостоверно, Лидский счет снизился с 2,6±2,5 до 2,1±2,0 через 12 нед (р=0,083). Исходно признаки активного сакроилиита на МРТ имели 73,3%, через 12 нед - 60% больных. Среднее уменьшение счета ВИ по данным МРТ за время наблюдения на фоне лечения ингибиторами ФНО α было достоверно более выраженным, чем при использовании НПВП (p=0,003 для позвоночника и p=0,013 для КПС). Заключение. Интенсивность боли в исследуемом отделе позвоночника достоверно снижается как при назначении НПВП, так и при использовании ингибиторов ФНО α. ВИ по данным МРТ достоверно уменьшаются при лечении ингибиторами ФНО α, но не НПВП. При большей исходной выраженности ВИ на МРТ их уменьшение на фоне лечения ингибиторами ФНС α было более значительным.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Objective: to evaluate the time course of inflammatory changes (ICs) in the spinal column and sacroiliac articulations (SIA) from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) during treatment with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-а) inhibitors or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which were first used. Subjects and methods. MRI of the most painful part of the spine and SIA was performed in 58 patients with AS at baseline and 12 weeks later. MRI T2 STIR and T1 (SIGNA EXCITE, General Electrics; 0.35 T, matrix 288x192) regimens were used. Bone marrow edema was regarded as active inflammation. Active ICs in the most painful part of the spine were assessed by the AS spinal MRI activity (ASspiMRI-a) score and those in SIA by the Leeds scoring system. MRI was interpreted independently by two specialists; one of them did not know about the number of a visit and performed therapy. The patients were divided into two groups: 1) those who first used TNF-а inhibitors and 2) those who were first given NSAIDs. Both groups were matched for demographic indicators. Results. In both groups, the mean pain level in the spinal part under study decreased significantly in both groups: from 5.7±1.7 to 2.3±1.8 in the TNF-а inhibitor group (p = 0.000006) and from 4.8±2.3 to 2.6±2.3 in the NSAID group (р = 0.00001). After 12 weeks of treatment, the patients receiving TNF-а inhibitors (n = 28) showed a considerable reduction in the MRI signs of spinal ICs from 4.8±2.3 to 1.6±1.6 (p = 0.00001); moreover, this trend was more pronounced in patients (n = 17) with more baseline IC foci (≥ 5) than in those (n = 11) with fewer baseline IC foci (&lt; 5) (the mean а was 4.3±1.5 and 1.6±1.4, respectively; р = 0.0003). In the patients taking NSAIDs (n = 30), the decrease in the number of spinal MRI ICs (from 2.8±2.5 to 2.3±2.1) was insignificant (p = 0.17). After 12 weeks, regression of active sacroiliitis was noted in 28 patients from the TNF-а inhibitor group with lower Leeds scores from 2.1±2.0 to 0 (p = 0.01). At baseline, 28.5% of the patients had MRI signs of active sacroiliitis, which were not found in any case at 12 weeks. At this time, the reduction in active sacroiliitis was also observed in the NSAID group patients (n = 30), but it was insignificant; the Leeds scores decreased from 2.6±2.5 to 2.1±2.0 (р = 0.083). At baseline and 12 weeks, the MRI signs of active sacroiliitis were present in 73.3 and 60% of the patients, respectively. During treatment with TNF-а inhibitors, the mean reduction in MRI IC scores during the follow-up was more marked than that in the use of NSAIDs (p = 0.003 for the spinal column and p = 0.013 for SIA). Conclusion. Pain intensity in the examined spinal part was significantly reduced in both the use of both TNF-а inhibitors and NSAIDs. MRI ICs significantly decreased when treated with TNF-а inhibitors rather than NSAIDs. With the greater magnitude of baseline MRI ICs, their drop was more significant during treatment with TNF-α inhibitors.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>воспалительные изменения</kwd><kwd>спондилоартрит</kwd><kwd>активный сакроилиит</kwd><kwd>магнитно-резонансная томография</kwd><kwd>ингибиторы фактора некроза опухоли α</kwd><kwd>нестероидные противовоспалительные препараты</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>inflammatory changes</kwd><kwd>spondyloarthritis</kwd><kwd>active sacroiliitis</kwd><kwd>magnetic resonance imaging</kwd><kwd>tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) inhibitors</kwd><kwd>nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs</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">&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sieper J., Rudwaleit M., Baraliakos X. et al.
