Mild acetabular dysplasia and risk of osteoarthritis of the hip : a case-control study [PDF]
Objective To determine whether mild variation in acetabular depth (AD) and shape is a risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip. Methods The unaffected contralateral hip of patients with unilateral hip OA was compared with hips of asymptomatic ...

Multi-classifier prediction of knee osteoarthritis progression from incomplete imbalanced longitudinal data [PDF]
Conventional inclusion criteria used in osteoarthritis clinical trials are not very effective in selecting patients who would benefit from a therapy being tested. Typically majority of selected patients show no or limited disease progression during a trial period.

CT-based Subchondral Bone Microstructural Analysis in Knee Osteoarthritis via MR-Guided Distillation Learning [PDF]
Background: MR-based subchondral bone effectively predicts knee osteoarthritis. However, its clinical application is limited by the cost and time of MR. Purpose: We aim to develop a novel distillation-learning-based method named SRRD for subchondral bone microstructural analysis using easily-acquired CT images, which leverages paired MR images to ...
