Summary

This study will compare two groups of adults: those who have both spine arthritis (sacroiliitis/axial spondylarthritis) and giant cell arteritis or polymyalgia rheumatica, and those who have only the blood vessel or muscle condition. Researchers want to see if there are differences in age, gender, or other traits between the groups. The goal is to better understand if these conditions are connected.
