Longitudinal Changes in Adiposity After a Youth Sport‐Related Knee Injury: Informing Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis Prevention

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Youth who experience a sport‐related knee injury have elevated odds of becoming overweight or developing obesity in 3 to 10 years, compounding their risk for posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). To inform prevention strategies, this study compared patterns of adiposity change between youth with a sport‐related knee injury and uninjured youth ...

Short‐Term Response to Biologic Therapy in Psoriatic Arthritis Is Not Influenced by Disease Duration at Initiation of Therapy

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naive psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods Patients with PsA who started on biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis.
