Abstract

Objective To investigate the factors associated with axSpA in soldiers of People's Armed Police Force.Methods Eighty-seven soldiers with axSpA were recruited between 2010 and 2017 while another 102 soldiers diagnosed with non-rheumatic chronic musculoskeletal pain during the same period were assigned as control group.Factors associated with axSpA, including age,length of military service,rank,types of work,history of the family,history of smoking and genetic factors, were analyzed in the study.Results The various factors were analyzed with chi-square and single factor logistic regression analysis.It was found that age,history of smoking,types of work and genetic backgrounds were statistically significant for the incidence of axSpA.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,types of work and genetic backgrounds were risk factors for axSpA.Conclusions In addition to AS,there is a considerable number of nr-axSpA patients in the Armed Police Force.The genetic background is a major risk factor for axSpA,and the types of work are closely related to the onset of axSpA.
