Effects of goup-based vs home-based exercise programmes in patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis. 16th Mediterranean Congress of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine - ESPRM 2025 - Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 39(3), 385–385. https://doi.org/10.21751/FRM-39-3-4-2171846-1867http://hdl.handle.net/10400.22/32297Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that significantly impairs spinal mobility and functionality. Exercise-based physiotherapy is a key non-pharmacological intervention; however, limited evidence compares supervised group-based with unsupervised home-based programes regarding functional and biomarker outcomes. This study aimed to compare the effects of 6-month group-based versus home-based exercise programes on functional capacity and inflammatory biomarkers in individuals with AS.engDisease activityFunctionalityBiomarkersPhysiotherapyconference poster not in proceedings10.21751/FRM-39-3-4-2171848-171X
