The Effect of Loading on the Contact Stress of UHMWPE Material for Artificial Hip Joint Bearing [PDF]
, 2012 An artificial hip joint consists of several main components. The components are femoral stem, femoral head, acetabular liner and acetabular shell. As its function as a bearing, an acetabular liner is designed to reduce friction and receive the high ...

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We assessed the effectiveness of PrismRA to improve clinical outcomes among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) initiating treatment with a biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drug (b/tsDMARD). Methods PrismRA incorporated 19 gene expression features and four clinical features to assess a patient's likelihood of

Labral tear is associated with increased risk of osteoarthritis – A cross-sectional study
Journal of Orthopaedic Reports, 2023 Introduction: The significant risk factor for hip OA is abnormal joint morphology. Labral tear occurs secondary to femoroacetabular impingment and decreases the ability of joint to maintain normal synovial fluid pressure.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...
