Adductor canal block versus intra-articular steroid and lidocaine injection for knee osteoarthritis: a randomized controlled study

TL;DR: ACB provides longer lasting analgesia which improves function and QoL in chronic KOA patients up to 3 months without any significant side effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonprescription drugs recommended in guidelines for common pain conditions.

Martina Hagen, +1 more
- 01 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: It is found that acetaminophen and oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) represent first-line management across all pain conditions in adults and children and in osteoarthritis, topical NSAIDs should be considered before oral NSAIDs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring the translational potential of clusterin as a biomarker of early osteoarthritis

TL;DR: Clusterin (CLU) is an ATP-independent holdase chaperone that prevents proteotoxicity as a consequence of protein aggregation as discussed by the authors , which is a ∼60 kDa disulfide-linked heterodimeric protein involved in the clearance of cellular debris and the regulation of apoptosis.
Dissertation

Effectiveness of single and combined treatments on biomechanical and clinical outcomes during walking in healthy individuals and individuals with knee osteoarthritis.

TL;DR: The findings of this thesis support combined treatment after investigating the biomechanical and clinical effects of combining LWI with a knee sleeve, which supports the use of these treatments in individuals with knee OA.
Journal ArticleDOI

The benefits to functional ambulation and physical activity of group-based rehabilitation in frail elderly Bulgarians undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Preliminary results.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the applied group-based intervention led to a significant improvement in FA as well as in PA of frail elderly subjects over the first six months after the group- based intervention.

Validation study of WOMAC: a health status instrument for measuring clinically important patient relevant outcomes to antirheumatic drug therapy in patients with osteoarthritis of the hip or knee.

TL;DR: WOMAC is a disease-specific purpose built high performance instrument for evaluative research in osteoarthritis clinical trials and fulfil conventional criteria for face, content and construct validity, reliability, responsiveness and relative efficiency.

Projections of primary and revision hip and knee arthroplasty in the United States from 2005 to 2030.

TL;DR: These large projected increases in demand for total hip and knee arthroplasties provide a quantitative basis for future policy decisions related to the numbers of orthopaedic surgeons needed to perform these procedures and the deployment of appropriate resources to serve this need.

Years lived with disability (YLDs) for 1160 sequelae of 289 diseases and injuries 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010

Theo Vos, +363 more

TL;DR: Prevalence and severity of health loss were weakly correlated and age-specific prevalence of YLDs increased with age in all regions and has decreased slightly from 1990 to 2010, but population growth and ageing have increased YLD numbers and crude rates over the past two decades.

Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for 291 diseases and injuries in 21 regions, 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010 (vol 380, pg 2197, 2012)

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive update of disease burden worldwide incorporating a systematic reassessment of disease and injury-specific epidemiology has been done since the 1990 study, and the authors aimed to calculate disease burden globally and for 21 regions for 1990, 2005, and 2010 with methods to enable meaningful comparisons over time.

Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for 291 diseases and injuries in 21 regions, 1990-2010: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2010

Christopher J L Murray, +369 more
- 15 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: The results for 1990 and 2010 supersede all previously published Global Burden of Disease results and highlight the importance of understanding local burden of disease and setting goals and targets for the post-2015 agenda taking such patterns into account.
