Breakage and Migration of Metal Wires in Operated Patella Fractures: Does it Correlate with Time?

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2013
Background: Tension-band wiring with metal wires is a commonly used technique to treat transverse patella fractures. Wire breakage and migration may potentially cause complications or morbidities such as nerve irritation or skin impingement.

Longitudinal Relationship Between Pain and Depression in People With Inflammatory Arthritis: A Narrative Review

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
As many patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) have chronic pain, understanding how to best assess and manage pain in IA is a priority. Comorbid depression is prevalent in adults with IA, affecting 15% to 39% of people. Although pain and depression are thought to be associated in IA, this concept is largely based on cross‐sectional data.

Hip morphology‐based osteoarthritis risk prediction models: development and external validation using individual participant data from the World COACH Consortium

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives This study aims to develop hip morphology‐based radiographic hip osteoarthritis (RHOA) risk prediction models and investigates the added predictive value of hip morphology measurements and the generalizability to different populations. Methods We combined data from nine prospective cohort studies participating in the World COACH consortium ...
