Acro-osteolysis as an indicator of severity in XXXX .

@entity1 @entity1375 @entity2835 @entity66 @entity730 @entity785
INTRODUCTION: @entity785 is a rare disease that predominantly affects @entity1 . The Medsger severity scale has been used to assess the severity, but it requires expensive and poorly accessible studies and it does not include complications such acrosteolysis, @entity730 , @entity66 or @entity1375 that occur on a relatively frequent basis in this disease. There is no study that considers if comorbidities, such as @entity2835 , are related to gravity. OBJECTIVES: To determine the correlation between severity and the presence of such complications. METHODS: 40 @entity1 with @entity785 , dividing them into tertiles according to severity were studied. Dichotomous variables were described using percentages, while dimensional by averages+SD. Statistical inference was performed using chi square test or Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn post-test, as appropriate. A significance at P<.05 was set. RESULTS: Of all the complications studied there were only differences in severity with acrosteolysis. Within comorbidities, @entity2835 is not associated with gravity.
