Exploring physical function and physical activity in axial spondyloarthritis: Beyond clinical remission or low disease activity

ConclusionsWe identified a close relationship between DA, PF, and PA in axSpA patients. Further, gender, HLA-B27, and hip involvement affected the clinical manifestation of axSpA patients. These findings demonstrate that clinical remission of axSpA patients requires a comprehensive assessment rather than a single remission of DA.
