Objective This study examined the global and regional temporal changes in cross‐country inequalities of site‐specific osteoarthritis (OA) burden from 1990 to 2021. Methods Age‐standardized years lived with disability rates (ASYRs) for site‐specific OA across 204 countries and territories were obtained from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and ...

OSCILLATORY PROPERTIES OF THIRD ORDER NEUTRAL DELAY DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS
This paper is devoted to the oscillatory properties of a third order neutral difference equation of the form \[ \Delta \left( c_n\Delta \left( d_n\Delta \left( y_n+p_ny_{n-k}\right) \right) \right) +q_nf\left( y_{n-m}\right) =e_n. \] Some sufficient conditions are obtained for oscillation of the solutions of the above equation.

Objective Asymptomatic hyperuricemia is a precursor of gout and is also associated with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to understand perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia. Methods Participants in a multinational study of

Objective The objective was to identify factors determining acute arthritis resolution and safety with colchicine and prednisone in acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis. Methods We conducted a post hoc analysis of the COLCHICORT trial, which compared colchicine and prednisone for the treatment of acute CPP crystal arthritis, using a ...

Objective Foot orthoses are thought to improve pain by potentially modifying internal mechanical forces. To test this, we explored whether foot orthoses can modify patterns of bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in people with midfoot pain. Methods Forty‐two people were recruited with midfoot pain, and magnetic resonance imaging–confirmed midfoot BMLs ...

An explicit solution of third-order difference equations
In this note the author obtains explicit formulas for the solutions of homogeneous and nonhomogeneous third-order difference equations \(y(t + 3) = y(t + 2) + a(t)y(t)\), \(y(i) = c_ i\), \(i = 1,2,3\), respectively, \(y(t + 3) = y(t + 2) + a(t)y(t) + f(t)\), \(y(i) = c_ i\) \(i = 1,2,3\), where \(c_ i\) are constants, \(a(t)\) and \(f(t)\) are ...

Workflow of the parameter optimization process for ITSC fault detection, applying Differential Evolution optimization and the Smooth Pseudo Wigner‐Ville Distribution for signal processing. The optimized parameters are then used in the failure identification pipeline, which combines the signal processing with a YOLO‐based architecture for fault severity
