Study on How Dietary Sodium Affects Disease Activity and Treatment Response in Axial Spondyloarthritis and Psoriatic Arthritis

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying the relationship between dietary sodium intake and disease activity in patients with axial spondyloarthritis both radiographic and non-radiographic or psoriatic arthritis. This study aims to better understand how salt consumption may influence these conditions and the response to certain therapies targeting inflammation, specifically anti IL-17A agents. The study is sponsored by the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon and includes adults aged 18 to 80 with these arthritis conditions. Participants will be patients with radiographic or non-radiographic axial spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis who are managed in rheumatology departments at study centers. The study involves measuring the participants salt intake during the day of inclusion and the following Monday and Tuesday. There is no intervention to change sodium intake instead, the study focuses on assessing and analyzing salt consumption and its possible effects on disease activity. During the study, participants will have their dietary sodium intake monitored and recorded. Researchers will evaluate the sodium intake data collected over three days to see how it relates to disease activity and therapeutic response. The study includes follow-up assessments during these days but does not involve any medication or treatment changes. Participation will last for the short period needed to measure sodium intake, with safety monitoring as needed according to the patients usual care.
