The ultrasound assessment of osteoarthritis: the current status
AbstractTraditionally, osteoarthritis (OA) is diagnosed with the clinical examination supplemented by the conventional radiography (CR). In the research literature, the role of ultrasound (US) imaging in the diagnostics of OA has risen steadily during the last two decades. US imaging is cheap and globally widely available often already in primary healthcare. Here, we reviewed the most essential US literature focusing on OA diagnostics and progression prediction using the various search engines. Starting from the year 2000, our search provided 1 445 journal articles. After reviewing the abstracts, 89 articles were finally i...

Features of Knee and Multi-joint Osteoarthritis by Sex and Race/Ethnicity: A Preliminary Analysis in the Johnston County Health Study
CONCLUSION: Preliminary findings in the diverse JoCoHS cohort suggest more lower extremity predominant MJOA in men compared to women. Women and Black participants had more KOA features and more severe symptoms. Hispanic participants appear to have higher pain and symptoms scores despite having fewer structural changes. Studies in diverse populations are needed to understand the burden of OA.PMID:37714542 | DOI:10.3899/jrheum.2023-0479

Radiocarpal arthrodesis revision with a pyrocarbon implant
We report the case of a patient who was dissatisfied with the outcome of radiocarpal arthrodesis, due to lack of motion despite complete absence of pain. We replaced arthrodesis by a pyrocarbon interposition implant. At 20 months' follow-up, the results showed complete absence of pain, partially restored range of motion and the implant in good position on radiographs. We believe that pyrocarbon implants may be a solution for patients dissatisfied with palliative treatment by arthrodesis.PMID:37709254 | DOI:10.1016/j.hansur.2023.08.010

Which Knee Phenotypes Exhibit the Strongest Correlation With Cartilage Degeneration?
CONCLUSION: We found that certain alignment patterns are associated with rapid deterioration of cartilage and exposure of subchondral bone, even over short time periods. In particular, the valgus femur with valgus tibia and valgus femur with varus tibia phenotypes deserve special attention, because they exhibited a strong, atypical correlation with the internal medial tibial subregion and anterior lateral tibial subregion, respectively. This is important because valgus and varus malalignment cause isolated lateral and medial compartment disease, respectively. Therefore, these findings suggest that a more individualized app...

Dual Parallel Intramedullary K-Wires for Arthrodesis of the Finger Distal or Thumb Interphalangeal Joints
CONCLUSIONS: This technique is simple and cost-effective and achieves a good union rate. The advantages include the ability to choose variable K-wire sizes according to the size of the medullary canal and the ease of postoperative care.PMID:37680173 | DOI:10.1111/os.13852

Increased asphericity of the femoral head-neck junction in professional breakers compared to hobby athletes - a retrospective case-control study
CONCLUSION: Breakers have higher AA in cam-type FAI compared to nonprofessional athletes. The corresponding hip pain significantly reduced training hours and caused the end of their breaking career. The potentially high prevalence of FAI in breakers and the corresponding consequences need to be considered early when athletes present with hip pain.PMID:37684261 | DOI:10.1080/00913847.2023.2256210

Remission of Dowager's hump by manipulative correction of spinal alignment: a case report
J Med Life. 2023 Jun;16(6):957-962. doi: 10.25122/jml-2023-0026.ABSTRACTDowager's hump is described as excessive kyphotic curvature in the thoracic spine with a Cobb angle of more than 40 degrees. This case report presents a 61 years old female office clerk who experienced headaches and neck pain for 3 years that extended into her right shoulder and upper chest. She consulted her primary care physician two months before seeing the chiropractor when the neck pain worsened. A diagnosis of cervicalgia related to osteoarthritis was made based on cervical and thoracic X-ray findings. The patient received non-steroid anti-inflam...

No Difference Between One-shot Co-injection of Corticosteroids and Hyaluronic Acid in a Three-injection Regimen for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized, Double-blind Trial
CONCLUSION: We found that a single co-injection of corticosteroids along with HA did not confer any additional benefit regarding patient-reported outcomes or physical function compared with a three-injection regimen of HA. Therefore, we do not recommend a one-shot co-injection of corticosteroids alongside the three-injection regimen of HA for patients with knee OA, and because prior research found HA to be ineffective, HA should not be used with or without corticosteroids for patients with knee OA.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level I, therapeutic study.PMID:37669538 | DOI:10.1097/CORR.0000000000002793
