21. Identification and characterization of a novel cartilage gene product CILP, which is an early indicator of osteoarthritis
Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to study alterations in the matrix composition of human articular cartilage in different stages of osteoarthritis and to isolate and characterize one of the proteins that is altered in the osteoarthritic process. The metabolism of articular cartilage in different stages of osteoarthritis including early asymptomatic OA was monitored in a culture system of metabolically labeled cartilage explants. LÄS MER
22. Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis : Who Are the Patients Referred to First-Line Intervention and What Happens to Them?
Sammanfattning : Background: First-line intervention to address osteoarthritis (OA) should include patient education, exercise therapy, and weight control if needed. Replacement surgery may be appropriate for patients who do not receive sufficient relief from non-surgical interventions. However, predicting the course of OA can be challenging. LÄS MER
23. Knee function, movement pattern and knee osteoarthritis in males 14-16 years after an anterior cruciate ligament injury
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this work was to study knee function movement pattern and knee osteoarthritis in males 14-16 years after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. In the first study, 154 male subjects with a 14-year-old ACL injury were investigated. Self-reported knee function and radiographic signs of osteoarthritis were assessed. LÄS MER
24. Wrist osteoarthritis - Impact on daily life, self-management and outcome
Sammanfattning : For individuals with symptomatic wrist osteoarthritis (OA), pain is the central problem negatively affecting all aspects of life. Despite the recommendations that all OA patients should be offered self-management treatment options, this approach is often lacking for patients with wrist OA. LÄS MER
25. Epidemiology of meniscus position: associations with knee symptoms and osteoarthritis
Sammanfattning : Meniscal extrusion (ME) in the knee joint is defined as when the peripheral border of the meniscus is substantially located outside the joint margin. Prior studies have reported that ME is associated with meniscal tears, meniscal degeneration, and the presence of knee osteoarthritis (OA). LÄS MER
