11. Developing knee joint osteoarthritis: Clinical, radiographical and biochemical features
Sammanfattning : The aim of this project was to study clinical, radiographical and biochemical features of developing, symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) prospectively in individuals aged 35-54 from the general population. A questionnaire to a random sample of 2 000 individuals in the district of Laholm, Sweden, identified 279 individuals (15% of the population) with chronic (>3 months) knee pain. LÄS MER
12. Radiography and bone scintigraphy in osteoarthritis of the knee: comparison with MR imaging

Individuals aged 35-54 years with chronic knee pain were identified. LÄS MER
13. Osteonecrosis. Prognosis and Prevention of the Consequences of Osteonecrosis
Sammanfattning : Abstract Background Osteonecrosis (ON) is defined by the in situ death of bone cells, osteocytes, hematopoietic and fatty marrow precursor cells. Events and risk factors known to be associated with ON are femoral neck fracture, hip dislocation, slipped capital femoral epiphysis in children, humeral head fracture and insufficiency fractures in load-bearing joints.

14. Aggrecan fragments as biomarkers in osteoarthritis
Sammanfattning : Background: In osteoarthritis (OA) the balance of cartilage matrix synthesis and degradation is disturbed, resulting in a gradual destruction of the articular cartilage. Matrix components released into body fluids by proteolytic cleavage can be used as biomarkers of ongoing processes. LÄS MER
