The primary outcome measure was the proportion of patients achieving a PtGA \u2264 20 at 4-, 8-, and 12-month followups. Secondary outcome measures included the proportion of patients achieving MDA and other outcome measures. Correlation of PtGA with MDA and other process and outcome measures were also performed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title><jats:p>During the period of observation, 124 patients were evaluated. PtGA \u2264 20 was achieved in 25.7% at 4 months, 48.9% at 8 months, and 65.3% at 12 months of followup. The percentage of PtGA \u2264 20 statistically improved throughout the 3 timepoint assessments and it was statistically correlated to MDA. A significant correlation with the Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index, and Health Assessment Questionnaire was also observed. MDA, DAPSA, and Disease Activity Score at 28 joints with C-reactive protein remission were achieved at 12 months in 64%, 36%, and 71% of patients, respectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion.<\/jats:title><jats:p>PtGA can estimate the LDA status and could be considered as a surrogate of outcome measures for the assessment of global disease activity in patients with PsA receiving anti-TNF therapy during routine clinical practice. These data suggest that PtGA might be used in outpatient settings, being a simple, reliable, and not time-consuming instrument.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.150595","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,2]],"date-time":"2015-11-02T01:09:41Z","timestamp":1446426581000},"page":"2332-2338","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":47,"title":["Patient\u2019s Global Assessment as an Outcome Measure for Psoriatic Arthritis in Clinical Practice: A Surrogate for Measuring Low Disease Activity?"],"prefix":"10.3899","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Ennio","family":"Lubrano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabio Massimo","family":"Perrotta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wendy J.","family":"Parsons","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Marchesoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2262","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.2004.032482"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/rheumatology\/keg217"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.09235"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/acr.20577"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/acr.22404"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.6","first-page":"1159","article-title":"Outcome measures in psoriatic arthritis","volume":"34","author":"Gladman","year":"2007","journal-title":"J Rheumatol"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/rheumatology\/34.12.1167"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.100857"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.2008.102053"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/acr.20155"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/acr.20162"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/annrheumdis-2012-201341"},{"issue":"Suppl 39","key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.13","first-page":"S93","article-title":"The Disease Activity Score and the EULAR response criteria","volume":"23","author":"Fransen","year":"2005","journal-title":"Clin Exp Rheumatol"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.2009.122259"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.15","first-page":"2286","article-title":"A new approach to defining disease status in ankylosing spondylitis: the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index","volume":"21","author":"Garrett","year":"1994","journal-title":"J Rheumatol"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/art.21972"},{"key":"2018112909350710000_42.12.2332.17","unstructured":"Wright V Moll JMH .
