N2 - OBJECTIVE: Can ultrasound (US), MRI and X-ray applied to the distal interphalangeal (DIP)-joint and synovio-entheseal complex (SEC) discriminate between patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA), skin psoriasis (PsO) and hand osteoarthritis (OA)?METHODS: In this prospective, cross-sectional study, patients with DIP-joint PsA and nail involvement (n=50), PsO with nail involvement (n=12); and OA (n=13); were consecutively recruited. Risk ratios (RR) were calculated for US, MRI and X-ray findings of the DIP-joint and SEC between diagnoses.RESULTS: New bone formation (NBF) in US and MRI was a hallmark of OA, reducing the risk of having PsA (RR 0.52 (95% CI 0.43 to 0.63) and 0.64 (95% CI 0.56 to 0.74). The OA group was different from PsA and PsO on all MRI and X-ray outcomes reflected in a lower RR of having PsA; RR ranging from 0.20 (95% CI 0.13 to 0.31) for MRI bone marrow oedema (BMO) to 0.85 (95% CI 0.80 to 0.90) in X-ray enthesitis. No outcome in US, MRI or X-ray was significantly associated with a higher risk of PsA versus PsO, although there was a trend to a higher degree of US erosions and NBF in PsA. 82% of PsA and 67% of PsO was treated with disease modifying antirheumatic drugs which commonly reflects the clinical setting.CONCLUSION: High grade of US, MRI and X-ray NBF reduce the RR of having PsA compared with OA. In PsA versus PsO patients, there was a trend for US to demonstrate more structural changes in PsA although this did not reach significance.
