The aim of this thesis was to psychometrically evaluate measurement properties in assessment methods related to pain in naturally occurring canine osteoarthritis. READ MORE

4. 2. Socioeconomic inequalities in musculoskeletal disorders outcomes and care. Educational inequalities in fracture-related mortality and osteoarthritis

   Author : Maria Lindéus; Centrum för ekonomisk demografi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Education; Sweden; Osteoarthritis surgery; Mortality; Osteoarthritis; Health inequities; Fracture;

   Abstract : Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are a major cause of disability worldwide, and two conditions that are major contributors to the overall burden of MSDs are fractures and osteoarthritis (OA). The Swedish Health and Medical Services Act (HSL 2017:30) states that the goal of all health care services is good health and health care on equal terms for the entire population. READ MORE

6. 4. Osteoarthritis. Epidemiologic and genetic aspects

   Author : Jonas Franklin; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; body mass index; knee; hip; epidemiology; Osteoarthritis; occupation; hip fracture; inheritance; natural history;

   Abstract : The purpose of this study was to (I) assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR) due to osteoarthritis (OA), (II) assess the association between the mechanical load of work and THR and TKR due to OA, (III) evaluate the natural history of radiographic hip OA with regards to THR and hip fracture, (IV) to determine the prevalence of radiographic OA in patients with hip fracture, and (V) to examine and compare the inheritance patterns of THR for OA and hip fracture. OA was previously regarded as a consequence of the wear and tear the joint is subjected to during one’s lifetime. READ MORE

7. 5. Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis : Who Are the Patients Referred to First-Line Intervention and What Happens to Them?

   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Background: First-line intervention to address osteoarthritis (OA) should include patient education, exercise therapy, and weight control if needed. Replacement surgery may be appropriate for patients who do not receive sufficient relief from non-surgical interventions. However, predicting the course of OA can be challenging. READ MORE
