Fig. 3From: Role of inflammatory burden and treatment on joint space width in psoriatic arthritis—a high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography studyCorrelation between disease-related variables and joint space parameters. *p < 0.05. A Correlation between disease duration and Mean JSW; B correlation between disease duration and Max JSW; C correlation between ESR and Mean JSW; D correlation between ESR and Max JSW; E Correlation between damaged joint count and Mean JSW; F Correlation between damaged joint count and Min JSW. Mean JSW (MCPJ 2–3) was negatively correlated with disease duration, ESR level, and damage joint count, while Max JSW was negatively correlated with disease duration (MCPJ 2–3) and ESR level (MCPJ 3), Min JSW was negatively correlated with damage joint count (MCPJ 2). MCPJ, metacarpophalangeal joint; ESR, erythrocyte sedimentation rate; JSW, joint space width; Max JSW, maximum joint space width; Min JSW, minimum joint space widthBack to article page
