Abstract:

Purpose: Variation in morphology in the proximal femur and pelvis (e.g. acetabular dysplasia, non-spherical femoral head) can biomechanically compromise the hip joint and predispose to hip osteoarthritis (OA). Such morphological variation may in part explain the heritability of hip OA. The objective of this study was to evaluate a range of 2-dimensional morphological measures on standard radiographs to determine: normal range, right: left symmetry, age and gender differences; and to investigate whether they are associated with the risk of hip OA. Methods: A nested case control study was undert

Abstract:

Anteromedial osteoarthritis of the knee (AMOA) has been defined anatomically, histologically and radiologically and yet little is known about the epidemiology of the disease or the risk factors involved in the development of the disease. The broad aim of this thesis was to combine clinical insight with the utilisation of modern, large epidemiological datasets to provide information to inform better the clinical management of patients with AMOA. Specifically, the prevalence and incidence of AMOA, the time taken to progress from early disease to severe disease that may require surgical intervent

Abstract:

Objectives: The pain experienced by osteoarthritis (OA) patients is not constant and patients experience episodes of pain exacerbations. Using an innovative web based case-crossover design, we evaluated whether psychological factors and knee injury/buckling are risk factors for pain exacerbations in knee OA. Methods: In a 3-months internet-based case-crossover study, participants with symptomatic knee OA were followed at 10-day intervals (control periods). Participants were also instructed to log on to the study website if they experienced a knee pain exacerbation (case periods). The relation

Abstract:

Background: Affecting approximately one in four adults over the age of 50 years in the UK, knee pain is a leading cause of disability in the elderly and bears a significant economic cost. Despite the plethora of studies that have investigated the factors associated with the onset of knee pain and osteoarthritis (OA) in the sedentary population, relatively little is known about the prevalence and factors associated with musculoskeletal pain and OA in an athletic sporting population. Objectives: This study aimed to: (1) describe the injury patterns, the prevalence of pain, and OA in Great Britai

En el primer treball s’avalua l’associació de l’artrosi simptomàtica de mans o genolls amb els factors de risc cardiovasculars clàssics i la síndrome metabòlica respecte un grup control. Es realitza una aproximació a la definició de síndrome metabòlica, donat es tracta d’un estudi transversal observacional.

With increasing rates of obesity, research has begun to focus of co-morbidities of obesity such as osteoarthritis. The majority of existing research has focused on older adults as the group most likely to suffer from osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to determine if overweight and obese young adults exhibit biomechanical risk factors for knee osteoarthritis, and to determine if young adults with biomechanical risk factors of osteoarthritis can modify these with instruction. This purpose was divided into two separate studies. Study 1: Thirty adults between 18-35 years old were re

Abstract:

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis worldwide, and mostly affects knee joint. The patients with knee OA usually suffer from severe knee symptoms and may even live with disability. There is no approved disease-modifying treatment available for knee OA, and existing management may only have limited effects or even have a range of side-effects. Thus, developing the preventive strategies of knee OA may be an effective way in reducing the disease burden. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an advanced technique which can detect early knee osteoarthritic changes. Several studies
