Journal ArticleDOI
The natural history of cartilage defects in people with knee osteoarthritis.
Miranda Davies-Tuck,Anita E. Wluka,Anita E. Wluka,Yuanyuan Wang,Andrew J. Teichtahl,Graeme Jones,Changhai Ding,Flavia M. Cicuttini +7 more
TL;DR: Over 2 years, cartilage defects tend to progress in people with symptomatic OA, with only a small percentage decreasing in severity, and increasing age and increased bone area are risk factors for progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fat infiltration of paraspinal muscles is associated with low back pain, disability, and structural abnormalities in community-based adults
Andrew J. Teichtahl,Andrew J. Teichtahl,Donna M. Urquhart,Yuanyuan Wang,Anita E. Wluka,Pushpika Namali Wijethilake,Richard O'Sullivan,Flavia M. Cicuttini +7 more
TL;DR: Although cause and effect cannot be determined from this cross-sectional study, longitudinal data will help to determine whether disabling low back pain and structural abnormalities of the spine are a cause or result of fat replacement of paraspinal muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity: a preventable risk factor for large joint osteoarthritis which may act through biomechanical factors
TL;DR: Obesity is the main preventable risk factor for the onset and progression of osteoarthritis and its potential importance in reducing the incidence of OA cannot be underestimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between body adiposity measures and risk of primary knee and hip replacement for osteoarthritis: a prospective cohort study.
Yuanyuan Wang,Julie A. Simpson,Julie A. Simpson,Anita E. Wluka,Anita E. Wluka,Andrew J. Teichtahl,Dallas R. English,Dallas R. English,Graham G. Giles,Stephen E. Graves,Stephen E. Graves,Flavia M. Cicuttini +11 more
TL;DR: Risk of primary knee and hip joint replacement for osteoarthritis relates to both adipose mass and central adiposity, which suggests both biomechanical and metabolic mechanisms associated with adiposity contribute to the risk of joint replacement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reviewing knee osteoarthritis--a biomechanical perspective.
TL;DR: This review aims to discuss several of the more pertinent biomechanical and neuromuscular factors that are becoming increasingly accepted as factors that contribute toward the pathogenesis of knee OA.
