The Effects of Clinical Factors and Retro-odontoid Soft Tissue Thickness on Atlantoaxial Instability in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Highlights This retrospective study evaluated the clinical factor and ROST thickness in patients with AAI from RA. This study showed negative correlation between ROST thickness and ADI, with ROST thickness increasing as ADI decreased. Severity indicators of RA, including positivity of RF and Steinbr...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights This retrospective study evaluated the clinical factor and ROST thickness in patients with AAI from RA. This study showed negative correlation between ROST thickness and ADI, with ROST thickness increasing as ADI decreased. Severity indicators of RA, including positivity of RF and Steinbrocker stage has shown a significantly associated with increased ROST thickness.
