Mashup Score: 8
It has been recognized that imaging findings associated with osteoarthritis (OA) are common in asymptomatic healthy joints, including the knee,1 hip2 and spine3,4 as shown in Figure 1. These incidental imaging findings, if not interpreted in the appropriate clinical context, may result in unnecessary and possibly harmful additional imaging tests and treatments.5 In addition, when an osteoarthritic joint is symptomatic, the extent of radiographic markers of osteoarthritis does not always correlate well with the severity of patient symptoms.

Mashup Score: 7Alterations in compositional and cellular properties of the subchondral bone are linked to cartilage degeneration in hip osteoarthritis - 6 month(s) ago
The subchondral bone is an emerging regulator of osteoarthritis (OA). However, knowledge of how specific subchondral alterations relate to cartilage degeneration remains incomplete.

Mashup Score: 11Is RANKL a potential molecular target in osteoarthritis? - 6 month(s) ago
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease of joints, in which the bone under the articular cartilage undergoes increased remodelling activity. The question is whether a better understanding of the causes and mechanisms of bone remodelling can predict disease-modifying treatments.

Mashup Score: 2Reflections on 30 years of publishing osteoarthritis research: Where we’ve been and where we’re going - 7 month(s) ago
In March 2023, we called on the community to reflect on the thirty years that have passed since the first issue of Osteoarthritis and Cartilage (OAC). In the first issue of OAC, Charles Menkes, the first president of what is now known as the Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) asked, “Is osteoarthritis one or several diseases? Are the present classification and radiographic criteria adequate? Should these issues be investigated by an international committee of experts?” In this 30th Anniversary Special Issue of OAC, we considered where the field has been, whether we have been able to address the questions put forth by Dr.

Mashup Score: 9Evaluation of weight loss counsel for Osteoarthritis patients: A cross-sectional analysis of NHANES 2011–2018 - 10 month(s) ago
Though health care providers (HCPs) know the importance of weight loss counsel for Osteoarthritis (OA), little is known about how frequently it is practiced and even less of its effectiveness. Thus, we analyzed the prevalence and effectiveness of weight counsel receipt in overweight/obese OA patients.

Mashup Score: 22Associations between anterior knee pain and 2-year patellofemoral cartilage worsening: The MOST study - 10 month(s) ago
Anterior knee pain (AKP) is associated with patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA), but longitudinal studies are lacking. If AKP precedes PFOA, it may create an opportunity to identify and intervene earlier in the disease process. The purpose of this study was to examine the longitudinal relation of AKP to worsening patellofemoral (PF) cartilage over two years.
