Strength Training for Arthritis Trial (START): design and rationale

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that in addition to short-term clinical benefits, combining greater duration with high-intensity strength training will alter thigh composition sufficiently to attain long-term reductions in knee-joint forces, lower pain levels, decrease inflammatory cytokines, and slow OA progression.

Test–retest reliability of 3D kinematic gait variables in hip osteoarthritis patients

TL;DR: It is shown that most of variables obtained using 3DGA in hip OA patients are reliable and for most variables, 5-10 trials are needed to obtain good reliability and to overcome intrinsic variability, rather than 30 or more, thus improving the feasibility of measurement.

Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test

TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.
