    الوصف: Background: To describe the scoring methodology and MRI assessments used to evaluate the cross-sectional features observed in cases and controls, to define change over time for different MRI features, and to report the extent of changes over a 24-month period in the Foundation for National Institutes of Health Osteoarthritis Biomarkers Consortium study nested within the larger Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) Study. Methods: We conducted a nested case-control study. Cases (n = 406) were knees having both radiographic and pain progression. Controls (n = 194) were knee osteoarthritis subjects who did not meet the case definition. Groups were matched for Kellgren-Lawrence grade and body mass index. MRIs were acquired using 3 T MRI systems and assessed using the semi-quantitative MOAKS system. MRIs were read at baseline and 24 months for cartilage damage, bone marrow lesions (BML), osteophytes, meniscal damage and extrusion, and Hoffa- and effusion-synovitis. We provide the definition and distribution of change in these biomarkers over time. Results: Seventy-three percent of the cases had subregions with BML worsening (vs. 66 % in controls) (p = 0.102). Little change in osteophytes was seen over 24 months. Twenty-eight percent of cases and 10 % of controls had worsening in meniscal scores in at least one subregion (p < 0.001). Seventy-three percent of cases and 53 % of controls had at least one area with worsening in cartilage surface area (p < 0.001). More cases experienced worsening in Hoffa- and effusion synovitis than controls (17 % vs. 6 % (p < 0.001); 41 % vs. 18 % (p < 0.001), respectively). Conclusions: A wide range of MRI-detected structural pathologies was present in the FNIH cohort. More severe changes, especially for BMLs, cartilage and meniscal damage, were detected primarily among the case group suggesting that early changes in multiple structural domains are associated with radiographic worsening and symptomatic progression.

    الوصف: ObjectiveTo determine the optimal combination of imaging and biochemical biomarkers for use in the prediction of knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression.MethodsThe present study was a nested case-control trial from the Foundation of the National Institutes of Health OA Biomarkers Consortium that assessed study participants with a Kellgren/Lawrence grade of 1-3 who had complete biomarker data available (n = 539 to 550). Cases were participants' knees that had radiographic and pain progression between 24 and 48 months compared to baseline. Radiographic progression only was assessed in secondary analyses. Biomarkers (baseline and 24-month changes) that had a P value of

    الوصف: Background: Osteoarthritis (OA), the leading cause of disability among adults, has no cure and is associated with significant comorbidities. The premise of this randomized clinical trial is that, in a population at risk, a 48-month program of dietary weight loss and exercise will result in less incident structural knee OA compared to control. Methods/design: The Osteoarthritis Prevention Study (TOPS) is a Phase III, assessor-blinded, 48-month, parallel 2 arm, multicenter randomized clinical trial designed to reduce the incidence of structural knee OA. The study objective is to assess the effects of a dietary weight loss, exercise, and weight-loss maintenance program in preventing the development of structural knee OA in females at risk for the disease. TOPS will recruit 1230 ambulatory, community dwelling females with obesity (Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m 2 ) and aged ≥50 years with no radiographic (Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≤1) and no magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evidence of OA in the eligible knee, with no or infrequent knee pain. Incident structural knee OA (defined as tibiofemoral and/or patellofemoral OA on MRI) assessed at 48-months from intervention initiation using the MRI Osteoarthritis Knee Score (MOAKS) is the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes include knee pain, 6-min walk distance, health-related quality of life, knee joint loading during gait, inflammatory biomarkers, and self-efficacy. Cost effectiveness and budgetary impact analyses will determine the value and affordability of this intervention. Discussion: This study will assess the efficacy and cost effectiveness of a dietary weight loss, exercise, and weight-loss maintenance program designed to reduce incident knee OA.

    الوصف: Objective: Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients often experience significant delay between symptom onset and diagnosis. Determinants of delay are incompletely understood. We investigated associations between demographic, medical, and socioeconomic factors and axSpA diagnostic delay. Methods: We identified axSpA patients diagnosed by rheumatologists in the Mass General Brigham health care system between December 1990 and October 2021. All patients met modified New York criteria for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) or 2009 Assessment of SpondloArthritis international Society (ASAS) criteria for axSpA. We determined the duration of diagnostic delay, defined as the duration of back pain symptoms reported at diagnosis, as well as extra-articular disease manifestations and specialty care received prior to diagnosis from the electronic health record. We obtained each patient’s social vulnerability index (SVI) by mapping their address to the US Centers for Disease Control SVI Atlas. We examined associations between disease manifestations, SVI, and diagnostic delay using ordinal logistic regression. Results: We identified 554 axSpA patients with mean diagnostic delay 6.8 (SD 8.5) years. In multivariable ordinal logistic regression analyses, peripheral arthritis (OR 0.65, 95%CI 0.45-0.93) and older age at symptom onset (OR 0.83, 95%CI 0.78-0.88 per 5 years) were associated with shorter delay. AS at diagnosis (OR 1.85, 95%CI 1.30-2.63), having a history of uveitis prior to diagnosis (OR 2.77, 95%CI 1.73-4.52), and higher social vulnerability (defined as being in the 80-99th percentile of SVI – OR 1.99, 95%CI 1.06-3.84) were associated with longer diagnostic delay. Conclusion: Older age at back pain onset and peripheral arthritis were associated with shorter delay while uveitis was associated with longer diagnostic delay. Patients with higher socioeconomic vulnerability had longer diagnostic delay independent of clinical factors.

    الوصف: Objective The purpose of this study was to determine whether clinical, health‐related quality of life (HRQL), and gait characteristics in adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA) differed by obesity category. Methods This cross‐sectional analysis of 823 older adults (mean age 64.6 years, SD 7.8 years) with knee OA and overweight or obesity compared clinical, HRQL, and gait outcomes among obesity classifications (overweight or class I, body mass index [BMI] 27.0–34.9; class II, BMI 35.0–39.9; class III BMI ≥40.0). Results Patients with class III obesity had worse Western Ontario McMasters Universities Arthritis Index knee pain (0–20) than the overweight or class I (mean 8.6 vs 7.0; difference 1.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.0–2.1; P < 0.0001) and class II (mean 8.6 vs 7.4; difference 1.1; 95% CI 0.6–1.7; P = 0.0002) obesity groups. The Short Form 36 physical HRQL measure was lower in the class III obesity group compared to the overweight or class I (mean 31.0 vs 37.3; difference −6.2; 95% CI −7.8 to −4.7; P < 0.0001) and class II (mean 31.0 vs 35.0; difference −3.9; 95% CI −5.6 to −2.2; P < 0.0001) obesity groups. The class III obesity group had a base of support (cm) during gait that was wider than that for the overweight or class I (mean 14.0 vs 11.6; difference 3.3; 95% CI 2.6–4.0; P < 0.0001) and class II (mean 14.0 vs 11.6; difference 2.4; 95% CI 1.6–3.2; P < 0.0001) obesity groups. Conclusion Among adults with knee OA, those with class III obesity had significantly higher pain levels and worse physical HRQL and gait characteristics compared to adults with overweight or class I or class II obesity. image

    الوصف: Background: Biomarkers collected in synovial tissue and fluid have been identified as potential predictors of outcomes after arthroscopy. Purpose: To provide a narrative review of the current literature that assesses the associations between preoperative biomarkers in the synovial fluid or synovial tissue and patient outcomes after knee arthroscopy. Study Design: Narrative review. Methods: We searched the PubMed database with keywords, “biomarkers AND arthroscopy,” “biomarkers AND anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,” and “biomarkers AND meniscectomy.” To be included, studies must have collected synovial fluid or synovial tissue from patients before or during arthroscopic knee surgery and analyzed the relationship of biomarkers to postoperative patient outcomes. Biomarkers were classified into 4 main categories: metabolism of aggrecan in cartilage, metabolism of collagen in cartilage (type II collagen), noncollagenous proteins in the knee, and other. When biomarker levels and outcomes were expressed with continuous variables, we abstracted the Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients as the effect measure. If the biomarker values were continuous and the outcomes binary, we abstracted the mean or median biomarker values in those with favorable versus unfavorable outcomes. We calculated effect sizes as the difference between means of both groups divided by the standard deviation from the mean in the group with better outcomes. Results: Eight studies were included in the review. Each study reported different patient outcomes. Biomarkers associated with metabolism of aggrecan, type II collagen metabolism, and noncollagenous proteins as well as inflammatory biomarkers had statistically significant associations with a range of patient outcomes after knee arthroscopy. Difference across studies in sample size and outcome measures precluded choosing a single biomarker that best predicted patient outcomes. Conclusion: The findings suggest that biomarkers associated with metabolism of aggrecan, type II collagen ...

    الوصف: BackgroundThe objective of this study was to analyze the literature regarding the diagnosis, pathogenesis, and prevalence of gluteal fibrosis (GF) and the outcomes of treatment.MethodsWe searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane literature databases, from database inception to December 15, 2016. We used the following search terms including variants: "contracture," "fibrosis," "injections," "injections, adverse reactions,' "gluteal," and "hip." All titles and abstracts of potentially relevant studies were scanned to determine whether the subject matter was potentially related to GF, using predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. If the abstract had subject matter involving GF, the paper was selected for review if full text was available. Only papers including ≥10 subjects who underwent surgical treatment were included in the systematic analysis. Data abstracted included the number of patients, patient age and sex, the type of surgical treatment, the method of outcome measurement, and outcomes and complications.ResultsThe literature search yielded 2,512 titles. Of these, 82 had a focus on GF, with 50 papers meeting the inclusion criteria. Of the 50 papers reviewed, 18 addressed surgical outcomes. The surgical techniques in these papers included open, minimally invasive, and arthroscopic release and radiofrequency ablation. Of 3,733 operatively treated patients in 6 reports who were evaluated on the basis of the criteria of Liu et al., 83% were found to have excellent results. Few papers focused on the incidence, prevalence, and natural history of GF, precluding quantitative synthesis of the evidence in these domains.ConclusionsThis study provided a systematic review of surgical outcomes and a summary of what has been reported on the prevalence, diagnosis, prognosis, and pathogenesis of GF. Although GF has been reported throughout the world, it requires further study to determine the exact etiology, pathogenesis, and appropriate treatment. Surgical outcomes appear satisfactory.Level of evidenceTherapeutic Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
