Abstract:
[Objective]To study the foot radiographs of rheumatoid arthritis(RA),evaluate the relationship between foot deformity and disease duration,the relationship between flat foot and forefoot deformities in RA,thus to improve understanding of the progression of deformity and provide more appropriate treatment. [Method]Anteroposterior and lateral weight-bearing radiographs were obtained for 112 feet of patients with RA and 104 feet of patients without RA.The hallux valgus angle,the first intermetatarsals angle,the top angle of the medial longitudinal arch,the anterior angle of the medial longitudinal arch,the relative height of the talus were measured.One-Way ANOVA were used to evaluate the difference between two groups,and partial correlations were used to analyze the relationship between the foot deformities and disease duration by control the age,the relationship between flat foot and forefoot deformity by control the age was also analyzed.[Result]The hallux valgus angle was 24.2?14.3 in RA group and 13.2?5.3 in control group,the first intermetatarsals angle was 9.6?5.9 in RA group and was 7.6?4.4 in control group,the top angle of the medial longitudinal arch was 129.4?6.6 in RA group and 124.4?5.2 in control group,the anterior angle of the medial longitudinal arch was14.5?3.0 in RA group and 16.2?4.5 in control group,the relative height of the talus was 0.184?0.024 in RA group and was 0.191?0.032 in control group,there was significant difference between two groups except the anterior angle of the medial longitudinal arch.With the increase of disease duration,the top angle of the medial longitudinal arch,increased in RA group(P
