Risk calculators and risk factors for Spondyloarthropathy risk factors

Since the role of genetic in the presence of spondyloarthropathies have been known since several years ago, genetically predisposing individuals are who have HLA-B27 gene, are at risk of developing spondyloarthropathies.

The risk of developing spondyloarthropathies in individuals with HLA-B27 gene is 1-2%, however, it can increase to 15-20% if he/she have a first-degree relative with positive HLA-B27 gene and developed spondyloarthropathy.

There some genes that are suspicious for their association in SpA, which are included:

  • HLA-B27
    • HLA-B*2702 (Association with AS)
    • HLA-B*2704 (Association with SpA)
    • HLA-B*2705 (Strong association with AS)
    • HLA-B*2706 (Very weak association with SpA)
    • HLA-B*2709 (AS sparing)
  • ERAP1
  • IL23R
  • TNFRSF1A
  • TRADD
  • TNFSF15
  • IL1A
  • IL1R2
  • CARD9
  • ANTXR2
