hip index: Scoring System of Structural Damage for the Hip in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a chronic inflammatory disease in children affecting mobility and physical function. The hip involvement represents a frequent complication in JIA patients. The assessment of hip damage becomes a mandatory step in disease monitoring. However, radiological scoring was not standardized. This study aimed to compare the two scoring systems previously proposed, examine their repeatability and their intra and inter agreement.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- intermodality agreement [6 months]
mesuring the intermodality agreement between two scoring system: the The Childhood Arthritis Radiographic Score of the Hip (CARSH) and the new radiographic scoring system for growth abnormalities and structural change in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis of the hip
Secondary Outcome Measures
- interreader agreement [3 months]
mesuring the interreader agreement between two experimented pediatric rheumatologist for the assessement of structurla damage in JIA hip
