Abstract

In the literature, there are practically no results of studies aimed at studying the clinical picture of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in the actual practice of rheumatologists in Uzbekistan. Meanwhile, such studies can provide information not only about the epidemiological aspects of the disease, but also about the diversity of its clinical picture, medical and social significance, and allow assessing the effectiveness of therapy and planning the system of medical costs for the future.

Purpose of the study. To study the clinical and epidemiological features of ankylosing spondylitis according to the register in the clinic of the Tashkent State Medical University

Material and research methods. Retrospective studies were conducted at the 3rd clinic of the Tashkent State Medical University with the analysis of 160 case histories of patients who received inpatient treatment for ankylosing spondylitis.

Conclusions. The diagnosis of AS in real practice is usually made later from the onset of the disease, which is largely due to ignorance of its clinical picture by specialists from other fields of medicine. The examined group of patients with AS is characterized by relatively high activity and pronounced functional impairments, which is primarily due to the peculiarities of patient selection.
