*Multivariate reverse-stepwise logistic regression model (adjusted as required for the following potential covariates: sex, age at radiographic assessment, disease duration at radiographic assessment, HLA-B*27 status, anti-TNF use ever, synthetic DMARD use ever, smoking and BMI).
Anti-TNF, antitumour necrosis factor; AS, ankylosing spondylitis; BMI, body mass index; DMARD, disease modifying antirheumatic drug; PsSpA, psoriatic spondyloarthritis.
