The role of cam morphology in the progression of radiographic hip osteoarthritis

Social activity, physical exercise, and health‐related quality of life among people with osteoarthritis in Canada

“…Second, the consideration of the impact of surgery and rehabilitation on social participation and mobility in individuals with OA is crucial. 12 Common procedures for OA patients include surgical interventions such as total knee replacement and total hip replacement. 13 While these surgeries are intended to enhance joint function and alleviate pain, the recovery and rehabilitation phase subsequent to these procedures may entail temporary limitations that can impede individuals' participation in social activities or affect their mobility.…”

Collagen supplementation for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis

“…[28][29][30][31][32][33] Similarly, the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) is a suitable measurement tool for assessing OA in young and old adults, with adequate internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity. [34][35][36][37] Furthermore, the Lysholm score and the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Subjective Knee Form are reliable and valid instruments that should be considered, especially for patients with OA related to ligament or meniscus injury. 38,39 In conclusion, to improve patient care and patient education, 22,40,41 future studies should address important residual confounders and implement clinically significant protocols to provide more evidence for managing RA and OA.…”

Aortic‐vertebral interaction in inflammation

“…Therefore, adjusting or stratifying for sex 3 could provide insights into whether male sex was a mediator or a confounder in the causal relationship between inflammation and radiographic phenotypes. In addition, since inflammation was proposed as a key component in this study, it would be valuable to consider the presence of inflammatory diseases or autoimmune diseases 4-7 such as rheumatoid arthritis, 8-12 psoriasis, 13-15 psoriatic arthritis, [16][17][18] Sjogren's syndrome, 19,20 fibromyalgia, 21,22 periodontitis, 22-28 or other diseases with osteophytes such as osteoarthritis, 23,29,30 as potential effect modifiers.The second issue to be addressed is the potential impact of unmeasured confounders on the observed findings. For example, the article did not report on the common medications used to manage AS and TKA, which are known to reduce C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and heterotopic ossification.…”
