Surface Topography and Radiographic Spinal Damage in Radiographic Axial Spondyloarthritis
Association Between Static Spinal Posture Assessed by Surface Topography (DIERS) and Radiographic Structural Damage (Modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score, mSASSS) in Radiographic Axial Spondyloarthritis: A Cross-Sectional Study
Radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA) causes progressive structural damage of the spine, conventionally quantified on lateral cervical and lumbar radiographs using the modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score (mSASSS). Repeated radiography entails cumulative radiation exposure, substantial inter-reader variability and low sensitivity in early disease. DIERS Formetric 4D (four-dimensional) surface topography (DIERS International GmbH, Schlangenbad, Germany) provides radiation-free three-dimensional modelling of the spine and pelvis. The association between sagittal balance and structural damage has been demonstrated with a radiation-based biplanar low-dose radiography system (EOS imaging, Paris, France), but whether a radiation-free topographic method reflects the same association has not been investigated.
This single-centre, cross-sectional observational study will enrol 53 adults with r-axSpA fulfilling the Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society (ASAS) criteria with radiographic sacroiliitis according to the modified New York criteria. At a single study visit, static DIERS Formetric 4D measurements, chest expansion, the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI), the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) and the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score with C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) are obtained. mSASSS is scored by a single reader, blinded to clinical and topographic data, on existing lateral cervical and lumbar radiographs obtained within the preceding 12 months; no additional radiographs are performed for the study. The primary analysis is the correlation between total mSASSS and the DIERS flèche cervicale (cervical sagittal anterior displacement).

Design: single-centre, cross-sectional, non-interventional correlation study in a single patient group; no control group. All participant data are collected in one assessment session lasting approximately 45 to 60 minutes.
Measurements: (a) demographic and anthropometric data; (b) disease duration, age at symptom onset, comorbidities, extra-articular involvement (uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis), human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) status, current medication category; (c) radiographic sacroiliitis grade according to the modified New York criteria and the modified Stoke Ankylosing Spondylitis Spine Score (mSASSS; range 0 to 72), scored by a single reader blinded to clinical and topographic data; (d) chest expansion; (e) the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) and the Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score with C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP), the latter using routine C-reactive protein values with no additional blood sampling; (f) Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI) total score and its five components; (g) DIERS Formetric 4D (four-dimensional) static parameters: flèche cervicale (cervical sagittal anterior displacement, mm), sagittal imbalance (mm and degrees), coronal imbalance (mm), pelvic obliquity (mm), pelvic torsion (degrees), cervical and lumbar depth distance (mm), kyphotic angle (degrees) and lordotic angle (degrees).
Statistical analysis: distribution is assessed with the Shapiro-Wilk test. The primary analysis is a Pearson or Spearman correlation between total mSASSS and flèche cervicale, reported with effect size and 95% confidence interval, followed by multiple linear regression adjusted for age and disease duration. Secondary analyses comprise correlations of DIERS parameters with clinical indices and an exploratory receiver operating characteristic analysis of the ability of DIERS sagittal parameters to predict mSASSS thresholds. The Benjamini-Hochberg procedure is applied to correct for multiple comparisons. Significance is set at p<0.05. Analyses are performed with IBM SPSS Statistics (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) version 23 or later.
Sample size: calculated with G*Power 3.1.9 for a bivariate normal correlation model, two-tailed, correlation under the null hypothesis (rho H0) = 0, expected effect size r = 0.40, alpha = 0.05 and power = 0.85, giving a required sample of 53 participants (actual power 0.857). The effect size was set conservatively at r = 0.40 rather than the r = 0.61 reported by Wanders et al. (2005) for occiput-to-wall distance versus mSASSS, because DIERS parameters are not identical to clinical mobility measures.
Reporting follows the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) statement.
