Scoring System of Structural Damage for the Hip in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (hip index)

January 12, 2022 updated by: lassoued ferjani Hanene, University Tunis El Manar
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.
