<h3>Importance</h3> Observational studies suggest that vitamin D supplementation is associated with benefits for knee osteoarthritis, but current trial evidence contradictory. <h3>Objective</h3> To compare the effects of vs placebo on pain and cartilage volume in patients symptomatic osteoarthritis low levels. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> A multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical Tasmania Victoria, Australia. Participants 25-hydroxyvitamin (12.5-60 nmol/L)...
<h3>Background</h3> The infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) is of uncertain significance for knee osteoarthritis. aim this study was to describe the longitudinal associations between baseline IPFP maximal area and changes in pain, cartilage volume defects older adults. <h3>Methods</h3> 356 community-dwelling male female adults aged 50–80 years were measured at approximately 2.6 later. T1-weighted or T2-weighted fat-suppressed MRI used assess area, and/or follow-up. Knee pain assessed by...
Abstract Introduction Recent studies regarding the infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) mainly focus on roles of cells derived from IPFP. There have been few clinical or epidemiological reporting association between IPFP and knee osteoarthritis (OA). Our objective is to generate hypotheses associations maximum area OA measures in older adults. Methods A total 977 subjects 50 80 years age (mean, 62.4 years) participated study. Radiographic osteophyte joint space narrowing (JSN) were assessed using...
The aim of this study was to estimate the 90-day periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) rates following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and hip (THA) for osteoarthritis (OA).This a data linkage using New South Wales (NSW) Admitted Patient Data Collection (APDC) Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry (AOANJRR), which collect from all public private hospitals in NSW, Australia. Patients who underwent TKA or THA OA between 1 January 2002 31 December 2017 were...
Objective To describe the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between knee regional effusion-synovitis structural changes in older adults. Methods A total of 977 subjects were randomly selected from local community (mean 62 years, 50% female) at baseline 404 followed up 2.6 years later. T2-weighted MRI was used to assess four subregions: suprapatellar pouch, central portion, posterior femoral recess subpopliteal recess. Knee cartilage defects, volume bone marrow lesions (BMLs)...
Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the association between weight change and total knee or hip replacement (TKR THR) for OA among middle-aged older adults with overweight obesity. Method Weight data were collected in 2006–2009 2010 from 45 Up Study—a population-based cohort aged ≥45 years New South Wales, Australia. Participants included if they had a baseline body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m 2 no history of TKR THR. was categorised into four groups: >7.5% loss; >5–7.5%...
Abstract Dealing with the transmission network of electric power systems, this paper identifies sequential failures receiving station components under a severe earthquake. Such progressively degrade performance, potentially leading to blackout. Hence, in paper, these are incorporated into systems analysis taking their seismic vulnerability consideration form fragility curves for evaluation performance conditions. Specifically, most critical operation network, transformers, disconnect...
To describe the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between knee regional effusion synovitis pain in older adults.Data from a population-based random sample (n = 880, mean age 62 yrs, 50% women) were used. Baseline joint was graded (0-3) using T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suprapatellar pouch, central portion, posterior femoral recess, subpopliteal recess. Effusion of whole defined as score ≥ 2 any subregion. Other structural (including cartilage, bone marrow,...
Plants experience a wide array of environmental stimuli, some which are frequent occurrences cold weather, have priming effects on agricultural production and agronomic traits. DNA methylation may act as an epigenetic regulator for the response Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum). Combined with long-term field observation laboratory experiments, comparative phenome, methylome, transcriptome analyses were performed to investigate potential contributions variety Dingku1. cv. Dingku1...
Aims It is unclear whether mortality outcomes differ for patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) or knee (TKA) surgery who are readmitted to the index hospital where their was performed, another hospital. Methods We analyzed linked and death records residents of New South Wales, Australia, aged ≥ 18 years had an emergency readmission within 90 days following THA TKA between 2003 2022. Multivariable modelling used identify factors associated with non-index evaluate associations...
Objective. To describe the associations between effusion-synovitis and joint structural abnormalities in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) over 24 months. Methods. A posthoc analysis using data from a randomized controlled trial 413 symptomatic OA (aged 63 ± 7 yrs, 208 women). Knee volume score, cartilage defects, volume, bone marrow lesions (BML) were assessed magnetic resonance imaging. Joint space narrowing (JSN) osteophytes radiograph. Least significant change criterion was used to...
