The home exercise group performed a program including spinal range of motion (ROM), stretching, and breathing exercises based on ASAS\/EULAR recommendations, 5 days\/week, 1 set of 10 repetitions, for approximately 40\u2005min per day. Outcomes included the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI), Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score C-reactive protein (ASDAS-CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ASDAS-ESR), SII and SIRI. Assessments were performed at baseline (T0), after treatment (T1) and 4 weeks after T1 (T2).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The home exercise group showed a trend toward within-group improvement in BASMI at T1 (p\u2009=\u20090.047), not significant after Bonferroni correction, and significant improvement at T2 (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001); however, no significant Group \u00d7 Time interaction or between-group difference was observed. No significant within-group changes were observed in BASDAI, BASFI, ASDAS, SII, or SIRI. In controls, BASDAI decreased at T1 and T2 (p\u2009=\u20090.136 and 0.060), but not after Bonferroni correction.

BASFI, ASDAS, SII, and SIRI remained unchanged, and no significant between-group differences were observed in any outcome.
