Alebouyeh F, Boutron I, Ravaud P, Tran VT. Psychometric properties and domains covered by patient-reported outcome measures used in trials assessing interventions for chronic pain. J Clin Epidemiol 2024; 170:111362. [PMID: 38615827 DOI: 10.1016/j.jclinepi.2024.111362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used in clinical trials assessing interventions for chronic pain, describe their psychometric properties, and the clinical domains they cover. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING We identified phase 3 or 4 interventional trials: on adult participants (aged >18 years), registered in clinicaltrials.gov between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2022, and which provided "chronic pain" as a keyword condition. We excluded diagnostic studies and phase 1 or 2 trials. In each trial, one reviewer extracted all outcomes registered and identified those captured using PROMs. For each PROM used in more than 1% of identified trials, two reviewers assessed whether it covered the six important clinical domains from the Initiative on Methods, Measurement, and Pain Assessment in Clinical Trials (IMMPACT): pain, emotional functioning, physical functioning, participant ratings of global improvement and satisfaction with treatment, symptoms and adverse events, and participant disposition (eg, adherence to medication). Second, reviewers searched PubMed for both the initial publication and latest review reporting the psychometric properties of each PROM and assessed their content validity, structural validity, internal consistency, reliability, measurement error, hypotheses testing, criterion validity, and responsiveness using published criteria from the literature. RESULTS In total, 596 trials assessing 4843 outcomes were included in the study (median sample size 60, interquartile range 40-100). Trials evaluated behavioral (22%), device-based (21%), and drug-based (10%) interventions. Of 495 unique PROMs, 55 were used in more than 1% trials (16 were generic pain measures; 8 were pain measures for specific diseases; and 30 were measures of other symptoms or consequences of pain). About 50% PROMs had more than 50% of psychometric properties rated as sufficient. Scales often focused on a single clinical domain. Only 25% trials measured at least three clinical domains from IMMPACT. CONCLUSION Half of PROMs used in trials assessing interventions for chronic pain had sufficient psychometric properties for more than 50% of criteria assessed. Few PROMs assessed more than one important clinical domain. Only 25% of trials measured more than 3/6 clinical domains considered important by IMMPACT.

[PMID: 38649830 PMCID: PMC11036605 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-04926-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Older people with hip fracture are often medically frail, and many do not regain their walking ability and level of physical activity. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between pre-fracture recalled mobility, fear of falling, physical activity, walking habits and walking speed one year after hip fracture. METHODS The study had a longitudinal design. Measurements were performed 3-5 days postoperatively (baseline) and at one year after the hip fracture. The measurements at baseline were all subjective outcome measures recalled from pre-fracture: The New Mobility Scale (NMS), the 'Walking Habits' questionnaire, The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Activity Scale, Fear of Falling International (FES-I) and demographic variables. At one year 4-meter walking speed, which was a part of the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) was assessed. RESULTS At baseline 207 participants were included and 151 were assessed after one year. Their age was mean (SD) 82.7 (8.3) years (range 65-99 years). Those with the fastest walking speed at one year had a pre-fracture habit of regular walks with a duration of ≥ 30 min and/or a frequency of regular walks of 5-7 days a week. Age (p =.020), number of comorbidities (p <.001), recalled NMS (p <.001), and recalled UCLA Activity Scale (p =.007) were identified as predictors of walking speed at one year. The total model explained 54% of the variance in walking speed. CONCLUSIONS Duration and frequency of regular walks before the hip fracture play a role in walking speed recovery one year following the fracture. Subjective outcome measures of mobility and physical activity, recalled from pre-fracture can predict walking speed at one year. They are gentle on the old and medically frail patients in the acute phase after hip fracture, as well as clinically less time consuming.

Effectiveness of a Web-Guided Self-Managed Telerehabilitation Program Enhanced with Outdoor Physical Activity on Physical Function, Physical Activity Levels and Pain in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized Controlled Trial. J Clin Med 2024; 13:934. [PMID: 38398248 PMCID: PMC10889528 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13040934] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Telerehabilitation to guide self-management has been shown to be a feasible care strategy for knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of a blended web-based rehabilitation program enhanced with outdoor physical activity (BWR-OPA) and consultation versus an OPA (usual care) program in KOA patients. Methods: Forty-four KOA participants were prescribed to follow the programs five times/week for 6 weeks. The primary outcome was self-reported physical function, measured by the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS). The secondary outcomes were pain, PA, function (timed up-and-go (TUG) test, 30 s chair rise test (30 s CRT)), psychological functioning and QoL. Results: There was a significant difference between the groups' KOOSs for pain and symptom subscales at the 6- and 12-week post-intervention assessments compared to baseline (p < 0.005) favoring the BWR-OPA group. There was a superior improvement in PA in the BWR-OPA training group (p < 0.05). Statistical and clinical improvements were found (p < 0.001) with effect sizes over 2.0 for objective measures of function. Similar improvements were recorded over time (p < 0.005) at 12 weeks for QoL, KOOS subscales for ADL, QoL and sports/recreation and psychological functioning for both groups. Conclusions: A blended web-based self-managed care program with outdoor PA was superior in many respects to usual care in KOA participants.

A cross sectional study exploring the relationship of self-reported physical activity with function, kinesiophobia, self-efficacy and quality of life in an Asian population seeking care for knee osteoarthritis. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:74. [PMID: 38238654 PMCID: PMC10795260 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07181-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical activity is a guideline-recommended first-line intervention for people with knee osteoarthritis. Physical activity levels, and its potential correlates, is underexplored in Asian populations with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS Participants enrolled in a longitudinal study in Singapore self-reported physical activity (UCLA activity score), function (Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [KOOS-12]), kinesiophobia (Brief fear of movement [BFOM]), self-efficacy (ASES-8), and quality of life (EQ-5D-5 L). One-Way ANOVA was used to test the difference in outcomes between UCLA categories, while ordinal logistic regression was used to identify the associated factors to physical activity level. RESULTS Seventy-three percent of all enrolled participants (n = 311/425) reported either inactivity or low physical activity (median 4, IQR 3-5). Significant, weak, positive correlations were observed be-tween UCLA activity score and either KOOS-12 (Spearman's rho: 0.1961; p < 0.001), ASES-8 (0.1983; p = 0.004), or EQ-5D-5 L (0.2078; p < 0.001). A significant, weak, negative correlation was observed between physical activity and BFOM (-0.2183; p < 0.001). Significant differences in function between groups (moderate vs. inactive or low physical activity) were not clinically important. Participants with obesity, from the eldest age category (i.e. ≥75), or who identified as Malay or female, were less physically active than those with a healthy BMI, below the age of 54, or who identified as Chinese or male, respectively. CONCLUSION Healthcare professionals in Asia should be aware of the large proportion of people with knee osteoarthritis who are either inactive or have low physical activity levels. Screening for, and offering interventions to promote, physical activity and its correlates should be prioritised.

Influence of Physical Activity and Cup Orientation on Metal Ion Release and Oxidative Stress in Metal-on-Metal and Ceramic-on-Metal Total Hip Arthroplasty. J Clin Med 2024; 13:527. [PMID: 38256664 PMCID: PMC10816639 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13020527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metal-on-metal (M-M) total hip arthroplasty (THA) has shown adverse reactions to metal debris, abnormal soft-tissue reactions, and high blood metal ion levels. This study aims to: (1) assess whether the toxicity of high levels of ions is related to altered oxidative stress and (2) evaluate tribological factors related to increased blood levels of chromium (Cr) and cobalt (Co) ions. METHODS A cross-sectional analytical descriptive study was conducted on 75 patients. A total of 25 underwent M-M THA, 25 ceramic-on-metal (C-M) THA, and 25 were on the THA waiting list. Ion metallic levels in blood, oxidative stress, physical activity, and implant position were compared. RESULTS In the M-M group, Co and Cr levels were significantly higher than those found in the C-M group and the control group (p < 0.01). We found no differences in terms of oxidative stress between the groups. Also, we did not find a correlation between metal blood levels and oxidative stress indicators, the physical activity of the patients or the position of the implants between groups. CONCLUSIONS The use of M-M bearing surfaces in THA raises the levels of metals in the blood without modifying oxidative stress regardless of the physical activity levels of the patients. Therefore, although patients with M-M bearings require close monitoring, it does not seem necessary to recommend the restriction of physical activity in patients with M-M or C-M arthroplasties.

[PMID: 37254645 PMCID: PMC10926713 DOI: 10.1002/jor.25624] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2022] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Identifying potential contributing factors for physical inactivity in people with knee osteoarthritis is vital for designing practical activity promoting interventions. Walking is a common activity, but it is unknown how gait characteristics may influence physical activity and if psychological factors, specifically fear of movement (kinesiophobia), contribute to this relationship. The aim of our study was to investigate the contributions of select gait parameters and kinesiophobia to activity levels. Cross-sectional data from 40 participants (F 24|M 16; age 57.6 ± 8.9 years; BMI 34.7 ± 7.0 kg/m2 ) with uni- or bilateral knee osteoarthritis were included. Physical activity and kinesiophobia were assessed by self-report using the University of California, Los Angeles activity rating scale, and Tampa scale for kinesiophobia, respectively. Gait parameters were collected with three-dimensional gait analysis while participants walked on an instrumented split-belt treadmill at a self-selected speed. Higher peak sagittal plane joint moments at the ankle (ρ = 0.418, p = 0.007), and hip (ρ = 0.348, p = 0.028), faster self-selected gait speed (ρ = 0.553, p < 0.001), and less kinesiophobia or fear of movement (ρ = -0.695, p < 0.001) were independently related to higher physical activity level in adults with knee osteoarthritis. In hierarchical regression models, after accounting for covariates, only self-selected gait speed, and kinesiophobia significantly contributed to explaining the variation in physical activity level. Statement of clinical significance: Interventions aimed at improving physical activity participation in those with lower limb osteoarthritis should consider assessing the contribution of pain-related fear of movement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether participants with knee osteoarthritis classified as 'more' or 'less' physically active at baseline differ in characteristics and/or outcomes at baseline and at 3 and 12 months following the commencement of an education and exercise-therapy program. METHODS Prospective cohort study using the GLA:D® Australia registry. The University of California, Los Angeles Physical Activity Scale (UCLA) participant data dichotomised as 'more' (≥7) or 'less' active (≤6). Groups were compared using chi-square (obesity [baseline only], comorbidity prevalence, medication consumption, fear of damage from physical activity); and linear mixed model regression (12-item Injury Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [KOOS-12], pain [visual analogue scale], health-related quality of life [QoL] [EQ-5D-5L]) statistics, adjusted for age, sex and baseline physical activity at 3 and 12 months. RESULTS We included 1059 participants (70% female). At baseline, 267 (25%) were classified as 'more' active, increasing to 29% and 30% at 3 and 12 months, respectively. At baseline, compared to the 'less' active group, the 'more' active group had a lower proportion of participants who were obese ('more' = 21% vs. 'less' = 44%), had comorbidities (58% vs. 74%) and consumed medications (71% vs. 85%); lower pain intensity (37 vs. 47); and higher KOOS-12 (59 vs. 50), and health-related QoL (0.738 vs. 0.665) scores. When accounting for age, sex and baseline physical activity, improvements seen in knee-related burden and health-related QoL were not different between groups at 3 or 12 months. Compared to the 'less' active group, the proportion of participants not consuming medication remained higher in the 'more' active group at 3 ('more' 45% vs. 'less' 28%) and 12 months (43% vs. 32%). CONCLUSION 'More' active people with knee osteoarthritis were less likely to be obese, had fewer comorbidities, lower medication consumption, knee-related burden and pain intensity, and higher health-related QoL than 'less' active participants at all timepoints.

Clin Orthop Relat Res 2023; 481:2380-2389. [PMID: 37289006 PMCID: PMC10642886 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000002728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a major risk factor for the early development of hip osteoarthritis. Recent studies have demonstrated how DDH alters hip muscle moment arms and elevates muscle-induced biomechanical variables such as joint reaction forces and acetabular edge loads. Understanding the link between abnormal biomechanics and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) is important for evidence-based clinical interventions that improve patient symptoms and functional outcomes. To our knowledge, there are no reports of the relationships between muscle-induced biomechanics and PROMs. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Are there associations between PROMs and muscle-induced hip biomechanics during gait for patients with DDH and controls? (2) Are there associations among PROMs and separately among biomechanical variables? METHODS Participants in this prospective cross-sectional comparative study included 20 female patients with DDH who had no prior surgery or osteoarthritis and 15 female individuals with no evidence of hip pathology (controls) (age: median 23 years [range 16 to 39 years]; BMI: median 22 kg/m 2 [range 17 to 27 kg/m 2 ]). Muscle-induced biomechanical variables for this cohort were reported and had been calculated from patient-specific musculoskeletal models, motion data, and MRI. Biomechanical variables included joint reaction forces, acetabular edge loads, hip center lateralization, and gluteus medius muscle moment arm lengths. PROMs included the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), the WOMAC, International Hip Outcome Tool-12, National Institutes of Health Patient-Reported Outcome Measure Information System (PROMIS) Pain Interference and Physical Function subscales, and University of California Los Angeles activity scale. Associations between PROMs and biomechanical variables were tested using Spearman rank-order correlations and corrected for multiple comparisons using the Benjamini-Yekutieli method. For this study, associations between variables were considered to exist when correlations were statistically significant (p < 0.05) and were either strong (ρ ≥ 0.60) or moderate (ρ = 0.40 to 0.59). RESULTS Acetabular edge load impulses (the cumulative acetabular edge load across the gait cycle), medially directed joint reaction forces, and hip center lateralization most commonly demonstrated moderate or strong associations with PROMs. The strongest associations were a negative correlation between acetabular edge load impulse on the superior acetabulum and the HOOS function in daily living subscale (ρ = -0.63; p = 0.001), followed by a negative correlation between hip center lateralization and the HOOS pain subscale (ρ = -0.6; p = 0.003), and a positive correlation between hip center lateralization and the PROMIS pain subscale (ρ = 0.62; p = 0.002). The University of California Los Angeles activity scale was the only PROM that did not demonstrate associations with any biomechanical variable. All PROMs, aside from the University of California Los Angeles activity scale, were associated with one another. Although most of the biomechanical variables were associated with one another, these relationships were not as consistent as those among PROMs. CONCLUSION The associations with PROMs detected in the current study suggest that muscle-induced biomechanics may have wide-reaching effects not only on loads within the hip, but also on patients' perceptions of their health and function. As the treatment of DDH evolves, patient-specific joint preservation strategies may benefit from targeting the underlying causes of biomechanical outcomes associated with PROMs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, prognostic study.

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of using SUpported Motivational InTerviewing (SUMIT) to increase physical activity in people with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). DESIGN Randomised controlled trial. SETTING We recruited people who had completed Good Life with osteoArthritis Denmark (GLA:D) from private, public and community settings in Victoria, Australia. INTERVENTIONS Participants were randomised participants to receive SUMIT or usual care. SUMIT comprised five motivational interviewing sessions targeting physical activity over 10 weeks, and access to a multimedia web-based platform. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-two participants were recruited (17 SUMIT, 15 control) including 22 females (69%). OUTCOME MEASURES Feasibility outcomes included recruitment rate, adherence to motivational interviewing, ActivPAL wear and drop-out rate. Effect sizes (ESs) were calculated for daily steps, stepping time, time with cadence >100 steps per minute, time in bouts >1 min; 6 min walk distance, Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) subscales (pain, symptoms, function, sport and recreation, and quality of life (QoL)), Euroqual, systolic blood pressure, body mass index, waist circumference, 30 s chair stand test and walking speed during 40 m walk test. RESULTS All feasibility criteria were achieved, with 32/63 eligible participants recruited over seven months; with all participants adhering to all motivational interviewing calls and achieving sufficient ActivPAL wear time, and only two drop-outs (6%).12/15 outcome measures showed at least a small effect (ES>0.2) favouring the SUMIT group, including daily time with cadence >100 steps per minute (ES=0.43). Two outcomes, walking speed (ES= 0.97) and KOOS QoL (ES=0.81), showed a large effect (ES>0.8). CONCLUSION SUMIT is feasible in people with knee osteoarthritis. Potential benefits included more time spent walking at moderate intensity, faster walking speeds and better QoL. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ACTRN12621000267853.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) is a proven risk factor for both native anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and ACL graft insufficiency. Anterior closing wedge high tibial osteotomy (ACW-HTO) for PTS correction is a validated procedure in revision ACL reconstruction (ACLR). PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of combined ACW-HTO and at least a second revision ACLR procedure on knee stability, function, and sports performance in a large series of patients. The hypothesis was that patients would return to impact sports after ACW-HTO combined with a second or third revision ACLR procedure. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS A total of 64 patients who underwent a second (or more) revision ACLR procedure and ACW-HTO between June 1, 2015, and June 1, 2019, and had a PTS >12° were included. The mean age was 29.60 ± 6.31 years, and the mean preoperative PTS was 13.79°± 1.50°. The cases were analyzed at a mean follow-up of 2.96 ± 0.83 years (range, 2-5 years). At the last follow-up, the rate of patients returning to impact sports (based on the University of California, Los Angeles [UCLA], activity scale), ACL graft status (per magnetic resonance imaging), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scores, Lysholm scores, and laxity measurements using a knee arthrometer were recorded. RESULTS The total number of patients participating in impact sports and high-impact sports was as follows: 43 and 30, respectively, before the injury; 0 and 0, respectively, preoperatively; and 31 and 12, respectively, postoperatively. At the last follow-up, the UCLA score was ≥8 in 48.44% of the patients, and only 16 patients returned to their preinjury level of activity. At a minimum of 2 years of follow-up, there was clinical improvement in the IKDC score from 37.98 ± 12.48 preoperatively to 69.06 ± 12.30 postoperatively (P < .0001), in the Lysholm score from 51.94 ± 14.03 preoperatively to 74.45 ± 11.44 postoperatively (P < .001), and in the UCLA score. However, this clinical improvement did not equate to preinjury values for all outcome scores (P < .001). The preinjury IKDC and Lysholm scores were 76.98 ± 11.71 and 89.26 ± 8.91, respectively. The mean change in anterior knee laxity using a knee arthrometer at 134 and 250 N was -4.03 ± 0.18 mm and -3.63 ± 0.16, respectively. There were 3 cases of a rerupture with a severe pivot shift on the clinical examination. None of these patients underwent revision per the patient's preference. Increased knee recurvatum was observed in one-third of the patients, but all were asymptomatic. CONCLUSION In the setting of chronic ACL-deficient knees, PTS reduction (ACW-HTO) with revision ACLR restored knee stability and improved function with an acceptable rate of specific complications. Increased knee recurvatum was observed in one-third of the patients, but all were asymptomatic. Also, approximately half of the patients were able to return to impact sports.

Abstract
Factors influencing the clinical outcomes after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) have not been well explored. This study evaluated the influence of symptom duration in developmental dysplasia of the hip on short-term patient-reported outcomes after PAO. A retrospective review of prospectively collected data identified PAOs performed on 139 patients. Sixty-five patients were then stratified into two groups based on preoperative symptom duration: 2 years or less (n=22) vs more than 2 years (n=43). We compared the results of hip-specific patient-reported outcome surveys collected preoperatively and postoperatively. When comparing the two groups, we found no significant differences in clinical outcome scores except for the UCLA Activity Scale. The shorter duration group achieved improvement 6 months postoperatively on the visual analog scale average pain score (from 4.5 to 2.167; P=.0017), International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (from 42.95 to 59.19; P=.0176), and Harris Hip Score (from 53.88 to 69.88; P=.049). The longer duration group also achieved postoperative improvement across multiple surveys. Nevertheless, a multivariate analysis controlling for age, sex, and body mass index and found that symptom duration did not independently affect the change in clinical outcomes. Although PAO leads to improvements in functional status and pain, preoperative symptom duration does not significantly affect these clinical outcomes. [Orthopedics. 2023;46(6):365-372.].

Abstract
Occupational therapy can improve physical activity, anxiety, and goal achievement after high tibial osteotomy. However, the role of psychological factors in physical activity and goal attainment after high tibial osteotomy is unclear. We examined how psychological factors mediate the relationship between physical activity and goal achievement. Participants included 55 individuals post-high tibial osteotomy. Physical activity and performance and satisfaction in everyday tasks had a significant indirect effect on the anxiety and depression. Anxiety and depression mediated the physical activity-goal attainment relationship. Thus, occupational therapy practices focusing on anxiety and depression may be important in post- high tibial osteotomy rehabilitation.

Abstract
This systematic review aimed to identify and compare instruments measuring nurses' organizational well-being, summarise the dimensions measured by these instruments, the statistical analysis performed for validity evidence and identify an instrument that comprehensively investigates nurses' organizational well-being. The JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis and the PRISMA checklist were used as guidelines. The search was conducted on Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane Library and Scopus. Critical appraisal and data extraction were drawn on the COSMIN checklist. Dimensions were conceptually synthesized by the measurement concepts' similarity. Twenty-two articles were retrieved and they included 21 instruments that measured nurses' organizational well-being. The instruments vary by dimension number (range 2-19), items (range 12-118) and concept elicitation. A plurality of methodologies has been used in instrument development and assessments of evidence for validity. Only four instruments reported a concurrent criterion validity or a measurement comparison with an already tested-for-validity instrument. Similar dimensions were leadership and support, relationships and communication, work-family balance, work demands, violence, control and autonomy, satisfaction and motivation, work environment and resources, careers, and organizational policy. This review underlines the core areas of the instruments that measure nursing organizational well-being. It allows administrators and researchers to choose the appropriate instruments for monitoring this multidimensional concept.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was the comparative assessment of long-term clinical (subjective and objective), functional and quality of life outcome data between primary and revision THA. METHODS 122 patients (130 hips) who underwent cementless revision THA of both components (TMT cup, Wagner SL stem, Zimmer Biomet) for aseptic loosening only (Group A) were compared to a matched group of 100 patients (100 hips) who underwent cementless primary THA for osteoarthritis (Synergy stem, R3 cup, Smith & Nephew) (Group B). Outcomes were evaluated with survival analysis curves, Harris Hip Score (HHS), WOMAC, Oxford Hip Score (OHS), Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12) and EQ-5D-5L scales. Mobility was assessed with walking speed, Timed Up And Go Test (TUG), Parker Mobility Score, Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) and UCLA scores. RESULTS At a mean follow-up of 11.1 (8-17) years a cumulative success rate of 96% (95% CI, 96-99%) in Group A and 98% (95% CI, 97-99%) in Group B with operation for any reason as an endpoint was recorded. Statistically significant differences between groups were developed for WOMAC (Mann-Whitney U-test, p = 0.014), OHS (Mann-Whitney U-test, p = 0.020) and physical component of SF-12 scores (Mann-Whitney U-test, p = 0.029) only. Group A had less improvement in function as compared with group B. In Group A, in multiple regression analysis, patients' cognition (p = 0.001), BMI (p = 0.007) and pain (p = 0.022) were found to be independent factors influencing functional recovery (WOMAC). Similarly, pain (p = 0.03) was found to influence quality of life (EQ-5D-5). CONCLUSIONS In the long term, revision THA shows satisfactory but inferior clinical, functional, and quality of life outcomes when compared to primary THA. Residual pain, BMI and cognitive impairment independently affect functional outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survivors of primary malignant musculoskeletal tumors often face long-term disability. Clinicians at present are unable to provide evidence-based advice about returning to sports, which is important for active patients. PURPOSES Identify patients returning to sports. Describe the sporting activities in which patients participate. Identify the outcome measures used to assess return to sport. Identify barriers preventing return to sports. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review. METHODS A comprehensive search strategy was used to identify relevant studies combining the following concepts: (1) Bone/Soft tissue tumor, (2) Lower limb, (3) Surgical interventions, and (4) Sports. Studies were selected according to eligibility criteria with the consensus of three authors (MTB, FS, and CG). RESULTS Twenty-two studies were selected, published between 1985 and 2020, including 1005 patients. Fifteen of the 22 studies had valid data on return to sports, with 705 participants, of which 412 (58.4%) returned to some form of sport such as swimming and cycling, at a mean follow-up period of 7.6 years. Four studies directly compared limb sparing surgery and amputation; none of these were able to identify a difference in sports participation or ability. CONCLUSION There is insufficient published research to provide guidance for patients with respect to return to sports following musculoskeletal tumors. Future prospective studies are needed to collect better pre- and post-treatment data at multiple time intervals. Validated clinical and patient sports participation outcomes such as type of sports, level, frequency, and validated sports-specific outcome scores should be recorded. In particular, more comparison between limb sparing surgery and amputation would be welcome.

Abstract
PURPOSE Revision rates following primary knee arthroplasty vary by country, region and hospital. The SPARK study was initiated to compare primary surgery across three Danish regions with consistently different revision rates. The present study investigated whether the variations were associated with differences in the primary patient selection. METHODS A prospective observational cohort study included patients scheduled Sep 2016 Dec 2017 for primary knee arthroplasty (total, medial/lateral unicompartmental or patellofemoral) at three high-volume hospitals, representing regions with 2-year cumulative revision rates of 1, 2 and 5%, respectively. Hospitals were compared with respects to patient demographics, preoperative patient-reported outcome measures, motivations for surgery, implant selection, radiological osteoarthritis and the regional incidence of primary surgery. Statistical tests (parametric and non-parametric) comprised all three hospitals. RESULTS Baseline data was provided by 1452 patients (89% of included patients, 56% of available patients). Patients in Copenhagen (Herlev-Gentofte Hospital, high-revision) were older (68.6 ± 9 years) than those in low-revision hospitals (Aarhus 66.6 ± 10 y. and Aalborg (Farsø) 67.3 ± 9 y., p = 0.002). In Aalborg, patients who had higher Body Mass Index (mean 30.2 kg/m2 versus 28.2 (Aarhus) and 28.7 kg/m2 (Copenhagen), p < 0.001), were more likely to be male (56% versus 45 and 43%, respectively, p = 0.002), and exhibited fewer anxiety and depression symptoms (EQ-5D-5L) (24% versus 34 and 38%, p = 0.01). The preoperative Oxford Knee Score (23.3 ± 7), UCLA Activity Scale (4.7 ± 2), range of motion (Copenhagen Knee ROM Scale) and patient motivations were comparable across hospitals but varied with implant type. Radiological classification ≥ 2 was observed in 94% (Kellgren-Lawrence) and 67% (Ahlbäck) and was more frequent in Aarhus (low-revision) (p ≤ 0.02), where unicompartmental implants were utilized most (49% versus 14 (Aalborg) and 23% (Copenhagen), p < 0.001). In the Capital Region (Copenhagen), the incidence of surgery was 15-28% higher (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Patient-reported outcome measures prior to primary knee arthroplasty were comparable across hospitals with differing revision rates. While radiographic classifications and surgical incidence indicated higher thresholds for primary surgery in one low-revision hospital, most variations in patient and implant selection were contrary to well-known revision risk factors, suggesting that patient selection differences alone were unlikely to be responsible for the observed variation in revision rates across Danish hospitals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in patients with dysplasia presents a unique challenge to surgeons. Short-term outcomes are conflicting, while longer term follow-up data are only emerging. PURPOSE To quantify midterm (minimum 5-year follow-up) outcomes after the arthroscopic correction of FAI in the presence of lateral rim dysplasia compared with a matched control group with FAI with normal acetabular coverage. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Prospective outcome data, collected in a consecutive series of patients undergoing arthroscopic FAI correction with lateral rim dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] of 13°-25°), were reviewed (N = 75 cases). An age- and sex-matched control group of 120 cases was also formed (LCEA >25°). Survivorship was defined as the avoidance of total hip replacement and assessed using a Kaplan-Meier curve with the log-rank test. Survival rates and patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) scores (modified Harris Hip Score [mHHS], University of California, Los Angeles [UCLA], 36-Item Short Form Health Survey [SF-36], and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index [WOMAC] preoperatively and at 5 years postoperatively) were compared between the groups. The proportion of patients across groups achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was compared for each PROM. The dysplasia group was also analyzed independently to identify any factors that may indicate a less favorable outcome using regression analysis. The group was divided into 2 subgroups: borderline dysplasia (LCEA of 20°-25°) and severe dysplasia (LCEA <20°). RESULTS The survival rate in the dysplasia group was 97%. There was no statistical difference with respect to survival rates or any PROM scores (P > .05 for all) between the groups. There were similar rates of achieving the MCID between the groups for the mHHS, UCLA, and WOMAC. The FAI control group had a higher rate of achieving the MCID for the SF-36 (P = .012; effect size = 0.274 [small]). Subgroup analysis indicated a lower survival rate (78% vs 100%, respectively; P < .001) in female cases in the dysplasia group (n = 9) compared with male cases in the dysplasia group (n = 66). The UCLA score in female cases in the dysplasia group at 5 years was statistically lower compared with that in male cases in the dysplasia group (6 vs 10, respectively; P = .003; effect size = 0.378 [medium]), but no other outcome revealed any differences between the sexes. There were also no variables identified on regression analysis that accurately predicted a poorer outcome in the dysplasia group. When stratified by severity, there was no difference in survivorship or outcomes between those with severe dysplasia (LCEA <20°; n = 11) and those with borderline dysplasia (LCEA of 20°-25°; n = 64). CONCLUSION An arthroscopic intervention was a successful treatment option for FAI in the presence of lateral rim dysplasia at midterm follow-up. Irrespective of the severity of dysplasia, patients can expect similar improvements to those in patients with normal femoral head coverage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of global disability. The understanding of the role of psychosocial factors in knee OA outcomes is still evolving particularly in an Asian context. The primary aim of this study is to explore psychosocial factors that prognosticate short and long-term clinical outcomes, productivity, and healthcare utilization in patients with knee OA. Secondary aims are to explore the mediation and directional relationships and the role it plays in predicting the discordance between self-reported measures (SRM), physical-performance measures (PPMs) and objective clinical parameters. METHODS A multi-centre prospective cohort study of community ambulant knee OA patients seeking treatment in the tertiary healthcare institutions in Singapore will be conducted. Patients with secondary arthritis, significant cognitive impairment, severe medical comorbidities or previous knee arthroplasty will be excluded. Primary clinical outcome measure is the Knee injury and OA Outcome Score-12 (KOOS-12). Baseline characteristics include sociodemographic status, arthritis status including symptom duration and radiographic severity, comorbidities and functional status through Charlson Comorbidities Index (CCI), Barthel Index (BI) and Parker Mobility Score (PMS). Psychosocial variables include social support, kinesiophobia, negative affect, self-efficacy, injustice, chronic illness shame and the built environment. Clinical outcomes include quality of life, physical performance, global assessment, satisfaction and physical activity levels. Productivity and healthcare utilization will be assessed by a modified OA Cost and Consequences Questionnaire (OCC-Q) and the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI). Variables will be collected at baseline, 4, 12 months and yearly thereafter. Regression, mediation and structural equation modelling will be used for analysis. DISCUSSION Results will allow contextualization, identification, and phenotyping of the critical (and potentially modifiable) psychosocial parameters that predict positive clinical outcomes in the OA population to guide optimization and refinement of healthcare and community. This will facilitate: 1. identification of high-risk knee OA subpopulations that will likely experience poor outcomes and 2. formulation of targeted multidisciplinary comprehensive approaches to address these psychosocial factors to optimize non-surgical treatment care, maximize functional outcomes and create more value-based care model for knee OA. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study has been registered under clinicaltrials.gov registry (Identifier: NCT04942236).

Similar rate of return to sports activity between posterior-stabilised and cruciate-retaining primary total knee arthroplasty in young and active patient. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2023; 31:551-558. [PMID: 36173439 PMCID: PMC9898351 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-022-07176-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Cruciate-retaining and posterior-stabilised implant designs are available for primary total knee arthroplasty. However, whether the implant design is associated with a difference in the level of activity still remains unclear. This clinical trial compared posterior-stabilised and cruciate-retaining implants in sport-related patient-reported outcome measures, range of motion, rate of return to sport, and weekly time dedicated to sport in active adults. It was also hypothesised that in young and active patients both implants lead to a similar rate of return to sport in terms of hours per week, type of sport, and joint mobility. METHODS All patients were evaluated preoperatively and for a minimum of 36 months follow-up. The University of California Los Angeles activity scores, High-Activity Arthroplasty Score, and Visual Analogue Scale were administered preoperatively and at the last follow-up. The range of motion was investigated at admission and the last follow-up. Data concerning the hours per week dedicated to sports and the type of sport practiced were also collected at admission and at the last follow-up. The Kaplan-Meier Curve was performed to compare implant survivorship. RESULTS Data from 227 procedures (cruciate-retaining: 109, posterior-stabilised: 118) were prospectively collected. At the last follow-up, no difference was reported in The University of California Los Angeles activity scores (p = 0.6), High-Activity Arthroplasty Score (p = 0.1), Visual Analogue Scale (p = 0.9), flexion (p = 0.7) and extension (p = 0.4). No difference was found in the rate of return (p = 0.1) and weekly hours dedicated to sport (p = 0.3). The Kaplan-Meier curve evidenced no statistically significant difference in implant survivorship (p = 0.6). CONCLUSIONS At approximately five years of follow-up, no difference was reported between cruciate-retaining and posterior-stabilised implants in active adults in sport-related patient-reported outcomes measures, range of motion, pain, weekly time dedicated to sport, rate of return to sport, and implant survivorship.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between muscle strength and physical activity level in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA), and determine whether this association is mediated by pain-related fear of movement (kinesiophobia) and self-reported pain. Cross-sectional data from 37 subjects (age 58.8 ± 8.6 years, 25F/12M, BMI 33.5 ± 6.4 kg/m2 ) with OA of the knee were used. Isometric knee extensor and flexor muscle strength were measured using an isokinetic dynamometer. Physical activity, kinesiophobia, and pain were assessed by self-report using the University of California, Los Angeles activity rating scale, Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, and The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score pain subscale, respectively. The associations between strength measures, physical activity, kinesiophobia, and pain scores, were modeled by performing a parallel multiple mediation analysis and the significance of mediational effects (kinesiophobia and pain) were tested using a bootstrap approach. Lower knee flexion and extension strength were associated with lower physical activity scores and these relationships were mediated by higher kinesiophobia scores (more fear) but not pain scores. Knee extension strength was directly associated with physical activity scores after controlling for kinesiophobia and pain scores. These results suggest that muscle strength can influence physical activity directly and indirectly through fear of movement. Assessing these measures together in this population may help clinicians identify patients that are more likely to avoid physical activities due to not only muscle weakness but also fear of movement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common mechanical hip condition, prevalent in both the athletic and the general population. Surgical intervention is an effective treatment option that improves both symptoms and function in short- to medium-term follow-up. Few studies within the literature have reported the longer-term success of arthroscopic surgery. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to quantify the 10-year survivorship and clinical outcome for patients treated arthroscopically for symptomatic FAI. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Patients from our hip registry (n = 119) completed patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) activity scale, 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) at a minimum of 10 years after arthroscopy (range, 10-12 years). Results were compared with baseline scores using the Wilcoxon signed rank test. The associations among several prognostic factors, which included age, sex, Tönnis grade, and labral treatment, and subsequent conversion to total hip replacement (THR) or repeat hip arthroscopy (RHA) were analyzed using the chi-square analysis. Relationships between range of motion and radiological findings with clinical outcome were also examined using Pearson correlation analysis. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was calculated using a distribution method (0.5 standard deviation of the change score), and substantial clinical benefit (SCB) was determined using an anchor method. Finally, receiver operating characteristic curves with subsequent Youden index were used to determine cutoffs for PROMs, which equated to a Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS). RESULTS A total of 8.4% of cases required conversion to THR, and 5.9% required RHA. Statistically significant improvements in mHHS, SF-36, and WOMAC scores, with high satisfaction (90%), were observed 10 years after surgery. No significant change was seen in activity level (UCLA score) despite patients being 10 years older. A high percentage of patients achieved MCID for mHHS (88%), SF-36 (84%), and WOMAC (60%). The majority of patients also achieved PASS (62% for mHHS, 85% for UCLA, 78% for SF-36, and 84% for WOMAC) and SCB (74% for mHHS, 58% for UCLA, 52% for SF-36, and 56% for WOMAC). CONCLUSION Arthroscopic intervention is a safe and viable treatment option for patients with symptomatic FAI, and patients can expect long-term improvements and high satisfaction. Results indicated a high satisfaction (90%) and survivorship rate (91.6%), with excellent clinical outcome, 10 years after the initial procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has experienced exponential growth over the last decade, including increasingly younger patients with high functional demands. Highly crosslinked polyethylene (HXLPE) has been proven effective in reducing osteolysis and loosening revisions while improving long-term survival and performance in total hip arthroplasty; nevertheless, this superiority is not demonstrated in TKA. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine whether HXLPE improved overall survival and postoperative functional and radiological outcomes compared to conventional polyethylene (CPE) in TKA. METHODS According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline, a literature search of five databases (PubMed, Medline, Scopus, Science Direct and Embase) was made. A PICOS model was performed. The initial screening identified 2541 studies. Each eligible clinical article was analysed according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine 2011 Levels of Evidence (LoE). Only randomised clinical trials (RCTs) of LoE 1 and 2 were included. The methodological quality of the articles was assessed using the Risk of Bias 2 (RoB 2) tool. RESULTS Six clinical studies were included in the final study. This systematic review and meta-analysis were registered on the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO). A total of 2285 knees were included. Eight outcomes (total reoperations, reoperations for prosthesis loosening and infections, radiolucent lines, osteolysis, mechanical failure, postoperative KSS knee score and function score) were analysed. For none of them, a statistically significant difference was found about the superiority of HXLPE over CPE (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS There were no statistically significant differences between HXLPE and CPE for TKA concerning clinical, radiological, and functional outcomes; nevertheless, HXLPE did not show higher failure rates or complications and can be safely used for TKA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a reliable operation, but it is critical that orthopaedic surgeons characterize which surgical factors influence patient-reported outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine whether implant selection at the time of THA affects the odds of having (1) inadequate improvement according to patient-reported pain, function, and activity; (2) failure to achieve a substantial clinical benefit (SCB) with respect to pain; or (3) failure to achieve a patient-acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) according to pain and function. METHODS Prospective data were collected from 4,716 patients who underwent primary THA (from July 2015 to August 2018) in a single health-care system with standardized care pathways. Patients were categorized according to the type of femoral and acetabular components and bearing surface used. Outcomes included 1-year postoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and improvement in the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) and the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) activity score. Inadequate improvement was defined as PROMs that changed by less than the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for the HOOS pain and physical function short form (PS) and as failure to improve beyond a mostly homebound activity status for the UCLA activity score (a score of ≤3). The MCID and SCB thresholds were set at values reported in the literature. RESULTS One-year PROM data were available for 3,519 patients (74.6%). There were no differences in the proportion of patients who attained the MCID in terms of HOOS pain, HOOS PS, or UCLA activity scores at 1 year for all analyzed implant parameters. Multivariate regression demonstrated that implant selection was not a significant driver of inadequate improvement, according to HOOS pain and HOOS PS (p > 0.05). Larger (36-mm) femoral heads demonstrated lower odds of inadequate improvement versus 28-mm femoral heads according to UCLA activity scores (odds ratio [OR]: 0.64; 95% confidence interval, 0.47 to 0.86; p = 0.003). Implant-related criteria were not significant drivers of attaining a PASS or achieving an SCB with respect to HOOS pain. CONCLUSIONS For the most part, THA implant characteristics are not drivers of inadequate improvement with respect to pain and function. Surgeons should utilize implants with an acceptable track record that allow stable fixation and restoration of hip biomechanics. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III.

Abstract
Background and purpose - The UCLA Activity Scale (UCLA) is a questionnaire assessing physical activity level from 1 (low) to 10 (high) in patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty (HA/KA). After translation and cultural adaptation, we evaluated the measurement properties of the Danish UCLA.Patients and methods - After dual panel translation, cognitive interviews were performed among 55 HA/KA patients. An orthopedic surgeon and a physiotherapist estimated UCLA scores for 80 KA patients based on short interviews. Measurement properties were evaluated in 130 HA and 134 KA patients preoperatively and 1-year postoperatively.Results - To suit Danish patients of today, several adaptations were required. Prior to interviews, 4 patients were excluded, and 11 misinterpreted the answer options. Examiners rated the remaining 65 patients (mean age 67 years) 0.2-1.6 UCLA levels lower than patients themselves. The 130 HA and 134 KA patients (mean age 71/68 years) changed from 4.3 (SD 1.9)/4.5 (1.8) preoperatively to 6.6 (1.8)/6.2 (1.0) at 1-year follow-up. 103 (79%) HA and 89 (66%) KA patients reported increased activity. Effect sizes were large (1.2/0.96). Knee patients reaching minimal important change (MIC, ≥ 8 Oxford Knee Score points) had higher 1-year UCLA scores than patients not reaching MIC.Interpretation - Original scale development was undocumented. Content validity was questionable, and there was discrepancy between patient and examiner estimates. UCLA appears valuable for measuring change in self-reported physical activity on a group level. 4 out of 5 HA patients and 2 out of 3 KA patients were more physically active 1 year after joint replacement surgery.

Abstract
In orthopaedics, patient reported outcomes (PROMs) are designed to quantify changes in pain and to assess physical function, most often after joint arthroplasty. However, PROMs have some disadvantages, most important is their subjective nature. The aim was to investigate how patient-self-reported-outcomes of general health, disease-specific outcome and physical function, joint-awareness and self-perceived activity- levels are correlated with objectively-measured physical-activity (PA) parameters derived from wearable activity-monitors (AM) in subjects with a hip-arthroplasty. A prospective cohort study was conducted in a group of 32 patients, with a mean follow-up of 10 years after total hip arthroplasty. To assess different domains, the SF-36 (general health), HOOS-PS (pain/functional outcome), FJS-12 (joint awareness) and SQUASH (physical activity) were chosen. Activity-monitoring was performed using a 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer. No significant correlations between PA-parameters and the FJS-12 and SQUASH were found. The HOOS- PS was significant correlated with BMI, the daily time walking and total-time active and the amount of daily steps. The physical functioning-subscale of the SF-36 was significant negative correlated with BMI and time sitting, but significant positive correlated with time walking, total-time active and the amount of daily steps. Considering the value of PA for maintaining general health, the value of using sensor-based AMs to assess efficacy of treatments in this health related dimension or use it as a tool for patient education, awareness and communication, seems very high.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hip osteoarthritis (OA) is the leading cause for total hip arthroplasty (THA). Although, being considered as the surgery of the century up to 23% of the patients report long-term pain, and deficits in physical function and muscle strength may persist after THA. Progressive resistance training (PRT) appears to improve multiple outcomes moderately in patients with hip OA. Current treatment selection is based on low-level evidence as no randomised controlled trials have compared THA to non-surgical treatment. The primary aim of this trial is to investigate whether THA followed by standard care is superior to 12 weeks of supervised PRT followed by 12 weeks of optional unsupervised PRT for improving hip pain and function in patients with severe hip OA. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a protocol for a multicentre, parallel-group, assessor-blinded, randomised controlled superiority trial conducted at four hospitals across three healthcare regions in Denmark. 120 patients aged ≥50 years with clinical and radiographic hip OA found eligible for THA by an orthopaedic surgeon will be randomised to THA followed by standard care, or 12 weeks of PRT (allocation 1:1). The primary outcome will be change in patient-reported hip pain and function, measured using the Oxford Hip Score, from baseline to 6 months after initiating the treatment. Key secondary outcomes will be change in the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subscales, University of California Los Angeles Activity Score, 40 m fast-paced walk test, 30 s chair stand test and occurrence of serious adverse events. Patients declining participation in the trial will be invited into a prospective observational cohort study. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The trial has been approved by The Regional Committees on Health Research Ethics for Southern Denmark (Project-ID: S-20180158). All results will be presented in peer-reviewed scientific journals and international conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04070027).

BACKGROUND Aberrant biomechanics may influence osteoarthritis-associated physical activity limitations. Our purpose was to evaluate the association of walking energetics, fatigue, and fatigability on physical activity in people with knee osteoarthritis. We hypothesized that using increased energy for walking, experiencing more fatigue, or being more fatigable are associated with less activity, and that fatigue and fatigability mediate the relationships between walking energetics and physical activity. METHODS We tested our hypothesis in 30 people with knee osteoarthritis (age 58 ± 9 years, 10 Male/20 Female). Physical activity was assessed using the University of California Los Angeles score. We used a six-minute walk test to predict VO2max. Next we used a portable oxygen exchange system to measure relative energy used (100 * VO2rate/VO2max) and VO2cost during walking at preferred speeds. We used the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subscale to quantify pain, and the Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Instrument System Fatigue survey and a treadmill-based fatigability test to assess fatigue and fatigability. Spearman correlations, regression, and mediation analysis were used to test our hypotheses. FINDINGS Greater energy used during walking, fatigue, and fatigability were all associated with lower physical activity (rho = -0.585 to -0.379, P = 0.001 to 0.043). These associations persisted when incorporating pain into the models. Fatigue and fatigability mediated the associations between walking energetics and physical activity. INTERPRETATION Walking energetics could be a useful target to promote physical activity in people with osteoarthritis. Further, the effect of walking energetics on physical activity may work through its impact on fatigability.

Abstract
AIMS Neither a surgeon's intraoperative impression nor the parameters of computer navigation have been shown to be predictive of the outcomes following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of this study was to determine whether a surgeon, with robotic assistance, can predict the outcome as assessed using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) for pain (KPS), one year postoperatively, and establish what factors correlate with poor KOOS scores in a well-aligned and balanced TKA. METHODS A total of 134 consecutive patients who underwent TKA using a dynamic ligament tensioning robotic system with a tibia first resection technique and a cruciate sacrificing ultracongruent TKA system were enrolled into a prospective study. Each TKA was graded based on the final mediolateral ligament balance at 10° and 90° of flexion: 1) < 1 mm difference in the thickness of the tibial insert and that which was planned (n = 75); 2) < 1 mm difference (n = 26); 3) between 1 mm to 2 mm difference (n = 26); and 4) > 2 mm difference (n = 7). The mean one-year KPS score for each grade of TKA was compared and the likelihood of achieving an KPS score of > 90 was calculated. Finally, the factors associated with lower KPS despite achieving a high-grade TKA (grade A and B) were analyzed. RESULTS Patients with a grade of A or B TKA had significantly higher mean one-year KPS scores compared with those with C or D grades (p = 0.031). There was no difference in KPS scores in grade A or B TKAs, but 33% of these patients did not have a KPS score of > 90. While there was no correlation with age, sex, preoperative deformity, and preoperative KOOS and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) physical scores, patients with a KPS score of < 90, despite a grade A or B TKA, had lower PROMIS mental health scores compared with those with KPS scores of > 90 (54.1 vs 50.8; p = 0.043). Patients with grade A and B TKAs with KPS > 90 were significantly more likely to respond with "my expectations were too low", and with "the knee is performing better than expected" compared with patients with these grades of TKA who had a KPS score of < 90 (40% vs 22%; p = 0.004). CONCLUSION A TKA balanced with robotic assistance to within 1 mm of difference between the medial and lateral sides in both flexion and extension had a higher KPS score one year postoperatively. Despite accurate ligament balance information, a robotic system could not guarantee excellent pain relief. Patient expectations and mental status also significantly affected the perceived success of TKA. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2021;103-B(6 Supple A):67-73.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The common treatment for end-stage tarsometatarsal (TMT) arthritis is an arthrodesis of the affected joints. This study was performed to examine the clinical and radiographic outcome after TMT arthrodesis and to identify risk factors for postoperative complications. METHODS A total of 101 patients with tarsometatarsal arthritis of at least 2 joints were retrospectively examined. Data were acquired using clinical and radiographic examination, pedobarographic analysis, and standardized questionnaires, including the European Foot and Ankle Society Score, the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score, a pain numeric rating scale (NRS), the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey, and the University of California at Los Angeles Activity (UCLA) Score. The fixation technique, any complications, and revision surgery were recorded. RESULTS All scores improved significantly, except for the UCLA Score. The mean pain NRS score was significantly reduced from 7.7 preoperative to 3.0 postoperative (P < .05). The overall nonunion rate was 12.6%. Compared with 2 crossed-screw fixation, locking plate plus compression screw fixation was associated with a decreased nonunion rate (odds ratio [OR] 0.165, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.032-0.854; P = .017). A body mass index >27 was significantly associated with a higher nonunion rate and wound healing problems (OR 12.05, 95% CI 1.430-101.468; P = .006; OR 5.03, 95% CI 1.273-19.871; P = .013). The overall reoperation rate was 25.2%. CONCLUSION TMT arthrodesis of the medial and central column resulted in significant improvement in foot function and pain. A major complication was nonunion. Locking plate plus compression screw fixation was associated with a lower nonunion rate. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, comparative series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-viscosity (HV) bone cements have been formulated to offer potentially advantageous handling characteristics. However, alteration in the handling characteristics could influence implant fixation and survival. The primary objective of this study was to use radiostereometric analysis after total knee arthroplasty to assess the migration of the Triathlon tibial component fixed with HV cement (Simplex HV). METHODS Twenty-three patients were followed for two years with radiostereometric analysis examinations at 6 visits. Migration was compared with published thresholds and with a control group from a previously published study from the same center using the same implants fixed with a medium viscosity cement. Inducible displacement was assessed, and Oxford 12 Knee Scores and satisfaction were recorded. RESULTS Mean maximum total point motion migration reaching 0.40 mm (SD 0.16) at one year, and 0.41mm (SD 0.17) at two years, demonstrating a pattern of stable fixation, below published thresholds of acceptable migration, and not significantly different from the control group. One implant had continuous migration between 1 and 2 years but was clinically asymptomatic. Mean maximum total point motion inducible displacement measured at least one year postoperatively was 0.3 mm (SD 0.12). Mean Oxford 12 Knee Scores improved from 19 (SD 7) preoperatively to 42 (SD 8) 2 years postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS The use of HV cement demonstrated an acceptable pattern of migration at 2 years, indicating low risk for aseptic loosening.

Abstract
Introduction. Knee osteoarthritis is considered to be a chronic disease that affects the joints by causing pain, joint stiffness and decreased functional capacity. Regular physical activity can keep and increase functional capacity, it can reduce pain by improving movement behavior. The disruption of the sedentary behavior of the elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis can lead to improved physical function and general health. The purpose of this paper is to point out the role of physical activity in the elderly people diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis during the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and method. A total of 155 patients diagnosed (clinical and imaging) with knee ostoarthritis, who were treated on an outpatient basis, from May to September 2020, were studied. The parameters assessed in the study were pain, joint stiffness, the ability to carry out daily activities, anxiety and quality of life. Results and discussion.The studied group of patients was homogeneous in terms of the weight by age group and gender. Higher values were recorded in the study group in the evaluation of patients based on scales, the results being statistically significant, with value for p<0.05, which means that the hypothesis was validated. Conclusions. Patients of the study group recorded improvementin of functional capacity, joint stability and static and dynamic balance, which allowed a faster reintegration into the family and society.

Abstract
Background: A growing body of literature supports surgical intervention for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in young, active athletes. However, factors likely to influence results in this cohort are less clearly defined. Purpose: To quantify changes in validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and determine whether differences in baseline athlete demographic characteristics, intraoperative findings, and surgical techniques are associated with achieving improved outcomes and minimal clinically important difference (MCID) after arthroscopic management of sports-related FAI. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: Data were prospectively collected from competitive athletes who underwent hip arthroscopy between January 2009 and February 2017. Athletes who underwent primary arthroscopic correction of sports-related FAI with labral repair were included providing they had a Tönnis grade ≤1 and a lateral center-edge angle ≥20°, excluding significant articular cartilage injury and lateral rim dysplasia. The modified Harris Hip Score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, University of California Los Angeles activity scale, and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey were used to measure outcomes at the 2-year follow-up. MCID was measured using 3 methods: a mean change method, a distribution-based method, and the percentage of possible improvement (POPI) method. Multivariate regression models were used to assess a number of diagnostic and surgical variables associated with good outcome and achieving MCID at follow-up. Results: At 2-year follow-up, statistically significant improvements were observed for all PROMs (P < .001 for all), and 84% of athletes continued to play sport. Higher preoperative PROM scores reduced the likelihood of achieving MCID; however, returning to play was the strongest predictor of reaching MCID in this athletic cohort. Using absolute score change (mean change or distribution method) to calculate MCID was less accurate owing to ceiling effects and dependence on preoperative PROM scores. Conclusion: Athletes undergoing arthroscopy for sports-related FAI can expect a successful outcome and continued sports participation at 2 years postoperatively. The majority of athletes will achieve MCID. The POPI method of MCID calculation was more applicable to higher functioning athletic cohorts. Reduced preoperative PROM scores and the ability to return to sport increased the likelihood of achieving MCID in this population.

Criterion validity of The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) for use in clinical practice in patients with osteoarthritis. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2021; 22:232.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To tailor physical activity treatment programs for patients with osteoarthritis, clinicians need valid and feasible measurement tools to evaluate habitual physical activity. The widely used International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) is not previously validated in patients with osteoarthritis. PURPOSE To assess the concurrent criterion validity of the IPAQ-SF in patients with osteoarthritis, using an accelerometer as a criterion-method. METHOD Patients with osteoarthritis (n = 115) were recruited at The Division of Rheumatology and Research at Diakonhjemmet Hospital (Oslo, Norway). Physical activity was measured by patients wearing an accelerometer (ActiGraph wGT3X-BT) for seven consecutive days, followed by reporting their physical activity for the past 7 days using the IPAQ-SF. Comparison of proportions that fulfilled physical activity recommendations as measured by the two methods were tested by Pearson Chi-Square analysis. Differences in physical activity levels between the IPAQ-SF and the accelerometer were analyzed with Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and Spearman rank correlation test. Bland-Altman plots were used to visualize the concurrent criterion validity for total- and intensity-specific physical activity levels. RESULTS In total, 93 patients provided complete physical activity data, mean (SD) age was 65 (8.7) years, 87% were women. According to the IPAQ-SF, 57% of the patients fulfilled the minimum physical activity recommendations compared to 31% according to the accelerometer (p = 0.043). When comparing the IPAQ-SF to the accelerometer we found significant under-reporting of total physical activity MET-minutes (p = < 0.001), sitting (p = < 0.001) and walking (p < 0.001), and significant over-reporting of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (p < 0.001). For the different physical activity levels, correlations between the IPAQ-SF and the accelerometer ranged from rho 0.106 to 0.462. The Bland-Altman plots indicated an increased divergence between the two methods with increasing time spent on moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity. CONCLUSION Physical activity is a core treatment of osteoarthritis. Our finding that patients tend to over-report activity of higher intensity and under-report low-intensity activity and sitting-time is of clinical importance. We conclude that the concurrent criterion validity of the IPAQ-SF was weak in patients with osteoarthritis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the effect of an additional 2-week health professional-led functional exercise programme compared to usual care for patients after hip fracture during a short-term nursing home stay directly after hospital discharge. METHOD One hundred and forty participants, 65 years or older with hip fracture, admitted to a short-term nursing home stay were randomised to an intervention group or control group. Participants in the intervention group (n = 78) received the experimental programme consisted of functional exercises, performed by health care professionals up to four times a day, 7 days a week, in addition to usual care during a 2-week short-term nursing home stay. Participants in the control group (n = 62) received usual care alone. Primary outcome was Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). Secondary outcomes were Timed Up & Go, New Mobility Score, The University of California, Los Angeles Activity Scale, Fall Efficacy Scale International, The EuroQol five dimension five-level questionnaire, and Numeric Rating Scale for pain. Outcome measures were assessed after 2 weeks in a short-term nursing home stay and 3 months after hip fracture surgery. The activity monitor ActivPal registered activity during the 2-week short-term nursing home stay. RESULTS No statistically significant differences between groups was found in any outcomes after 2 weeks or 3 months (p > 0.05). There were statistically significant within-group improvements in primary outcome SPPB and in most secondary outcomes at all time points in both groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A 2-week health professional-led functional exercise programme in addition to usual care demonstrated no difference in clinical outcomes compared to usual care alone up to 3 months after hip fracture. The patients with hip fracture are fragile and vulnerable in this early phase, and usual physiotherapy may be sufficient to improve their physical function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polish clinicians and researchers face challenges in selecting physical activity tools appropriate and validated for older people. The aim of this study is to provide cultural adaptation and validation of the Polish version of the Physical Activity Scale for Elderly (PASE-P). METHODS This cross-sectional study was carried out among 115 older adults living in south-eastern Poland. The original version of the scale has been translated into the Polish language following standardized translation procedures. Validation was evaluated by Pearson's rank correlation coefficients between PASE-P, the normal Timed Up and Go test and that with a cognitive task (TUG and TUG cog, respectively), grip strength, basic and instrumental activities of daily living (ADL and IADL, respectively), Five Times Sit to Stand (5x STS), 10-m Walk Test (10MWT), the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). RESULTS The mean PASE-P was 91.54 (SD 71.15). Sufficient reliability of the test-retest of the PASE-P questionnaire components was found between the trials. The ICC test was strong and ranged from 0.988 to 0.778 for both major domains and the total scale score. A significant correlation was found between the total PASE-P score and the shorter TUG, TUG cog (r = - 0.514, p < 0.001; r = - 0.481, p < 0.001) and 10MWT (r = 0.472, p < 0.001). The total PASE-P score was also positively correlated with ADL and IADL (r = 0.337, p < 0.001; r = 0.415 p < 0.001), BBS (r = 0.537, p < 0.001) and 5xSTS (r = 0.558, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The results obtained in the study confirm that the Polish version of the PASE scale is a valid and reliable tool for assessing the level of physical activity in older adults living in a community.

Abstract
Introduction It is of interest if preoperative activity level has an impact on postoperative activity level following cementless TKA. Methods This review contained 127 patients who had a preoperative Lower Extremity Activity Scale (LEAS) score ≥ to 10 (active patients) and 121 patients <10 (inactive patients). Results Postoperatively, the results showed a difference in LEAS Activity (Active 10.5 vs. Inactive 8.7, p < 0.001). Active patients had a drop in their activity level by 1.2 on the LEAS score, yet inactive patients increased by 1.6 (p < 0.0001). Conclusion Preoperative activity levels are a good indicator for postoperative activity in cementless TKA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the construct validity, criterion validity, and responsiveness of measurement instruments evaluating scapular function. DESIGN Systematic review of measurement properties. LITERATURE SEARCH The MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and SPORTDiscus databases were systematically searched from inception until March 2019. STUDY SELECTION CRITERIA Studies published in Dutch, English, or German were included when they evaluated at least 1 of the measurement properties of interest. No restrictions were made regarding participants' health status. DATA SYNTHESIS Two reviewers independently evaluated study quality using the COSMIN checklist and extracted and analyzed data. Quality of evidence was graded by measurement property for each distinctive type of measurement. RESULTS Thirty-one measurement instruments in 14 studies were categorized into instruments to measure scapular posture and movement, and to assess scapular dyskinesis. Quality of evidence was at most moderate for 4 instruments with respect to criterion validity. Of these, criterion validity for instruments measuring scapular protraction/retraction posture and rotation angles up to 120° of thoracohumeral elevation was sufficient. Criterion validity for instruments measuring asymmetrical scapular posture, range of motion, and the lateral scapular slide test was insufficient. Quality of evidence for measurement properties of all other instruments was graded lower. CONCLUSION There is currently insufficient evidence to recommend any instrument for the clinical examination of scapular function. Measurement instruments to assess scapular dyskinesis are prone to misinterpretation and should therefore not be used as such.

Abstract
Background Return to sports is an important outcome in ensuring patient satisfaction after knee-replacement surgery. However, few studies have directly compared unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA), total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA). Hypothesis TKA will result in lower rates of return to sports than either UKA and PFA due to increased complexity and invasiveness. Study Design Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods Patients who underwent UKA, TKA, or PFA with 1 to 2 years of follow-up were sent a questionnaire regarding return to sports, satisfaction with return to sports, pain, the University of California, Los Angeles activity scale, and the High Activity Arthroplasty Score (HAAS). The patients who underwent either TKA or UKA were matched 2:1 with regard to age and sex to patients who underwent PFA. Differences were compared using analysis of variance, t tests, and chi-square tests. Results A total of 202 patients were eligible. After matching, the final cohort consisted of 23 PFA patients, 46 UKA patients, and 46 TKA patients. The majority of patients were female (87%), and the mean ± SD age was 56 ± 9.1 years. The UKA group had higher HAAS values than the TKA group pre- and postoperatively (9.9 vs 7.1 [P = .001] and 12.4 vs 9.5 [P < .001], respectively). Patients with UKA had higher rates of return to sports after surgery than those with TKA or PFA (UKA, 80.5%; TKA, 71.7%; PFA, 69.5%; P = 0.08). In addition, the UKA group had the highest satisfaction with this outcome. Improvement between pre- and postoperative scores was similar in all 3 groups. Conclusion Patients who underwent UKA reported better activity scores and return-to-sports rates than patients who had TKA and PFA. No differences were found in improvement after surgery, suggesting that preoperative differences were reflected postoperatively. These findings inform shared decision making and can help to manage patient expectations after surgery.

Abstract
Background: Compliance rates with patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) collected alongside arthroplasty registries vary in the literature. We described the feasibility of a routinely collected set PROMs alongside the Dutch Arthroplasty Register. Methods: The longitudinal Leiden Orthopaedics Outcomes of OsteoArthritis Study is a multicenter (7 hospitals), observational study including patients undergoing total hip or total knee arthroplasty (THA or TKA). A set of PROMs: Short Form-12, EuroQol 5 Dimensions, Hip/Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Oxford Hip/Knee Score was collected preoperatively and at 6, 12, 24 months, and every 2 years thereafter. Participation rates and response rates were recorded. Results: Between June 2012 and December 2014, 1796 THA and 1636 TKA patients were invited, of whom 1043 THA (58%; mean age 68 years [standard deviation, SD: 10]) and 970 TKA patients (59%; mean age 71 years [SD 9.5]) participated in the study. At 6 months, 35 THA/38 TKA patients were lost to follow-up. Response rates were 90% for THA (898/1000) and 89% for TKA (827/932) participants. At 1 and 2 years, 8 and 18 THA and 17 and 11 TKA patients were lost to follow-up, respectively. The response rates among those eligible were 87% (866/992) and 84% (812/972) for THA and 84% (771/917) and 83% (756/906) for TKA patients, respectively. The 2-year questionnaire was completed by 78.5% of the included THA patients and by 77.9% of the included TKA patients. Conclusions: About 60% of patients undergoing THA or TKA complete PROMs preoperatively, with more than 80% returning follow-up PROMs. To increase the participation rates, more efforts concerning the initial recruitment of patients are needed.

Abstract
Background Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of global disability. The Collaborative Model of Care between Orthopaedics and Allied Healthcare Professionals (CONNACT) Model of Care (MoC) was developed by optimizing evidence-based non-surgical treatments to deliver value-based care for people with knee OA. The primary aim of this study is to determine the clinical effectiveness of the CONNACT MoC (3 months) compared to usual care. The secondary aims are: a) To determine the cost-effectiveness and b) To develop an evaluation and implementation framework to inform large scale implementation for this MoC. Methodology Type 1 Effectiveness-Implementation Hybrid Trial using an explanatory sequential mixed-method approach. The study consists of 3 components. The first component is the pragmatic, parallel-arm, single-blinded randomized control trial. Inclusion criteria are patients with knee OA based on the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) criteria with radiographic severity of greater than Kellgren-Lawrence 1, and Knee Injury and OA Outcome Score (KOOS4) of equal or less than 75. Exclusion criteria include other forms of arthritis, history of previous knee arthroplasty or wheelchair-bound patient. KOOS4 is the primary outcome measure at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year. Secondary outcomes include KOOS individual subscales, quality of life scoring, functional performance, global, diet and psychological related outcomes. The second component is an economic evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of the CONNACT MoC using a societal perspective. The third component is an implementation and evaluation framework using process evaluation under the RE-AIM framework using a mixed-method approach. Sample size of 100 patients has been calculated. Discussion CONNACT MoC is a complex intervention. In line with the MRC guidance for developing and evaluating complex interventions, a pilot feasibility study was completed and a comprehensive approach including an RCT, economic evaluation and process evaluation is described in this study protocol. Results from this study will help clinicians, healthcare administrators and policymakers guide the sustainable and effective implementation of the CONNACT MoC for knee OA and serve as a basis for similar multidisciplinary MoC for chronic degenerative musculoskeletal conditions to be developed.

Abstract
Aims The most frequent indication for revision surgery in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is aseptic loosening. Aseptic loosening is associated with polyethylene liner wear, and wear may be reduced by using vitamin E-doped liners. The primary objective of this study was to compare proximal femoral head penetration into the liner between a) two cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) liners (vitamin E-doped (vE-PE)) versus standard XLPE liners, and b) two modular femoral head diameters (32 mm and 36 mm). Methods Patients scheduled for a THA were randomized to receive a vE-PE or XLPE liner with a 32 mm or 36 mm metal head (four intervention groups in a 2 × 2 factorial design). Head penetration and acetabular component migration were measured using radiostereometric analysis at baseline, three, 12, 24, and 60 months postoperatively. The Harris Hip Score, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Activity Score, EuroQol five-dimension questionnaire (EQ-5D), and 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey questionnaire (SF-36) were assessed at baseline, three, 12, 36, and 60 months. Results Of 220 screened patients, 127 were included in this study. In all, 116 received the allocated intervention, and 94 had their results analyzed at five years. Head penetration was similar between liner materials and head sizes at five years, vE-PE versus XLPE was -0.084 mm (95% confidence interval (CI) -0.173 to 0.005; p = 0.064), and 32 mm versus 36 mm was -0.020 mm (95% CI -0.110 to 0.071; p = 0.671), respectively. No differences were found in acetabular component migration or in the patient-reported outcome measures. Conclusion No significant difference in head penetration was found at five years between vE-PE and XLPE liners, nor between 32 mm and 36 mm heads.

Abstract
Little is known about the influence of physical activity (PA) on metal ion concentrations in subjects with metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty. Implant wear is thought to be a function of use and thus of patient activity levels. It is hypothesized that daily habitual PA of patients with hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) is associated with metal ion concentrations. Therefore a study was conducted in patients with a unilateral HRA at 10-years follow-up. Blood metal ion concentrations were determined. An acceleration-based activity monitor was used to measure PA in daily life. The cohort consisted of 12 males (75%) and 4 females (25%) with a median age at surgery of 55.5 ± 9.7 years [43.0-67.9] and a median follow-up of 9.9 ± 1.0 years [9.1-10.9]. The median cobalt and chromium ion concentrations were 25 ± 13 and 38 ± 28 nmol/L. A significant association between sit-stand transfers and high-intensity peaks with cobalt ion concentrations were found. Regarding PA and metal ion concentrations as a proxy of wear in HRA, specific activities like transfers or qualitative aspects of activity behavior like intensity, seem to matter more than the quantity of low-intensity activities like walking or cycling. This suggests that patients may safely engage in such activities to achieve important general health benefits and quality of life.

Abstract
Background and purpose - Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) was designed for the highly active patient because of the various theoretical advantages compared with stemmed total hip arthroplasty (THA), but has shown high failure rates. Physical activity (PA) after arthroplasty is frequently determined with the use of questionnaires, which are known for their subjective nature, recall bias, and ceiling effect. These disadvantages are not applicable to physical activity monitoring (AM) using sensors. We compared objectively measured PA at long-term follow-up in a matched cohort of HRA and stemmed THA subjects.Patients and methods - We compared 2 groups of 16 patients (12 males) in each group, one having received unilateral HRA (median age 56 years at surgery) and a matched group having received unilateral stemmed THA with a small diameter femoral head (28 mm) on conventional polyethylene (median age 60 years at surgery) with osteoarthritis as indication for surgery, 10 years after surgery. Groups were matched by sex, age at surgery, and BMI. The daily habitual PA was measured over 4 consecutive days in daily living using a 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer. Both quantitative parameters (time standing, sitting, walking, number of steps, and sit-stand transfers) and qualitative parameters (walking cadence) were determined.Results - The AM was worn for a median 13 (11-16) hours per day. The median daily step count was 5,546 (2,274-9,966) for the HRA group and 4,583 (1,567-11,749) for the stemmed THA-group with 39 (21-74) versus 37 (24-62) daily sit-stand transfers respectively. The other PA parameters were also similar in both groups.Interpretation - We found similar median PA levels and also identical ranges. While short-term effects may exist, ageing and related behavioral adaptations or other effects seem to render the theoretical activity benefits from HRA irrelevant at longer follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip resurfacing (HR) is an alternative to conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) in very active, young male patients. However, there is no study in the literature that has proven its benefits for high-impact sport over standard primary THA. The aim of the current study was to investigate the return to sport and function level of male patients after THA vs. HR. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective study is based on a telephone questionnaire for general health and sports activities. 40 HRs were matched with 40 THAs based on preoperative University of California Arthroplasty Score (UCLA), BMI, age at time of surgery and age at follow-up. The mean follow-up period was 56 months (range 24-87 months). RESULTS HR patients showed a significantly higher High-activity arthroplasty score (HAAS) (14.9 vs. 12.9, p < 0.001) and Lower extremity activity scale (LEAS) (15.9 vs. 14.1, p < 0.001) and reached significantly higher values in the Hip cycle score (HCS) (44.7 vs. 35.7 p = 0.037) and Impact score (IS) (40.9 vs. 29.6, p < 0.002) than THA patients. No significant differences were found in the HOOS function section (91.4 vs. 90.3, p = 0.803) and the Pain numeric rating scale (NRS)-11 (0.6 vs. 0.9 p = 0.169). Patients with HR had a slightly higher Harris hip score (HHS) (97.8 vs. 95.6, p = 0.015) CONCLUSION: The current study suggests that young male patients are able to engage in higher activity levels after HR compared to standard THA.

Abstract
Short-stem hip prostheses were developed to treat active patients requiring total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study provides short-term data about a short-stem total hip arthroplasty system. Functional and radiological outcomes as well as return to sports and activity level were assessed. A series of 55 patients was primarily included. Data were available for 47 patients at an average follow-up of 38 ± 4.6 months. The back-to-sports analysis showed a 98% return-to-sports rate (46/47 patients). The average time for return to sports was 13 weeks (± 8) postoperatively. Five patients (10.6%) were more active postoperatively. The Harris Hip Score (HHS) improved from 34.8 (±9.4) preoperatively to 94.7 (±8.4, p ≤ 0.001) and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) score improved from 4.5 (±1.8) to 6.9 (±1.9) (p ≤ 0.001). The High Activity Arthroplasty Score (HAAS) was 12 (±3.6) at 3-year follow-up. Pre- and postoperative UCLA and postoperative HHS and HAAS scores had a positive influence on the return-to-sports rate (p ≤ 0.05). The collection of radiographic data during all postoperative follow-ups showed no signs of radiolucent lines or bone fissures. The complication rate was at 5%. Short-stem systems are equaling conventional prostheses and offer benefits regarding soft tissue and bone stock preservation. Fast recovery and return to sports can be achieved.

Comorbidities and their link with individual health status: A cross-sectional analysis of 23,892 people with knee and hip osteoarthritis from primary care. JOURNAL OF COMORBIDITY 2020; 10:2235042X20920456. [PMID: 32489945 PMCID: PMC7238776 DOI: 10.1177/2235042x20920456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2019] [Accepted: 03/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Objectives: Robust data on the impact of comorbidities on health in people with osteoarthritis (OA) are lacking, despite its potential importance for patient management. Objectives were to determine coexisting conditions in people with OA in primary care and whether more comorbidities were linked with individual health status. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 23,892 patients with knee and hip OA was conducted to determine comorbidities present (number/clusters) and how these linked with pain intensity (0–100), widespread pain (site numbers), medication usage (paracetamol, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, opioids), quality of life EuroQol five dimension scale (EQ-5D), and physical function (walking speed) using independent t-tests or χ2 test. Results: Sixty-two percent of people with OA treated in primary care had at least one comorbidity; hypertension (37%), heart disease (8%), and diabetes (7%) being most common. Outcome measures worsened with more comorbidities (0–4+ comorbidities); pain intensity [mean (SD)] 46(22)–57(21); number of painful sites 3.7(3.0)–6.3(5.4); quality of life 0.73(0.10)–0.63(0.15); walking speed 1.57 m/s (0.33)–1.24 m/s (0.31), while the proportion of people using pain medication increased from 0 to 2 comorbidities (58–69%; p < 0.001), with an increase in opioid use from 4.6% to 19.5% with more comorbidities (0–4+ comorbidities). Conclusion: Most people with knee or hip OA in primary care have at least one other long-term condition. A greater number of comorbidities is linked with worsening health, highlighting the importance of screening for comorbidities when treating patients with OA. It is important for clinicians to consider how OA treatments will interact and affect other common comorbidities.

Higher Disability in Women Than Men Scheduled for Total Knee Arthroplasty for Degenerative Osteoarthritis: A Cross-Sectional Analysis From India. ACR Open Rheumatol 2020; 2:309-319. [PMID: 32386129 PMCID: PMC7301870 DOI: 10.1002/acr2.11137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2020] [Accepted: 03/24/2020] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective Higher level impairments and activity limitation among those scheduled for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is known. Sex differences in participation restriction which is the final domain of disablement pathway is not known. No data from developing countries exist on sex differences in disability levels at the time of TKA. Methods In a cross‐sectional analysis of 240 patients (188 women; 72 men) scheduled for TKA, impairment (pain, symptoms, quadricep muscle strength, and knee range of motion [ROM]), activity limitation (self‐reported and objective performance‐based measurements), and participation restriction were compared. Multivariable regression analyses were used to adjust for key sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Associations between impairments and participation restriction were analyzed. Results Compared with men, women were more likely to have higher levels of impairment (knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome pain score adjusted mean difference [aMD]: −6.9 [95% confidence interval {CI} −13.7 to −0.18]; flexion ROM of less than 100° adjusted odds ratio: 5.7 [95% CI 1.6‐20.3]; and 36% lower muscle strength [95% CI 24%‐49%]) and lower objectively measured functional ability (walking speed aMD: −0.12 m/s [95% CI −0.23 to −0.02]; stair climbing time aMD: 9.5 s [95% CI 1.5‐17.5]). Participation restriction was higher in women compared with men. Of the impairment measures (pain, ROM, and muscle strength), pain contributed to participation restriction in both sexes. Conclusion This study demonstrated higher levels of disability in women than in men at the time of TKA. Effect of pain on participation restriction was higher compared with muscle strength and ROM. Evidence of delay in decision‐making to undergo TKA and reasons for delay need to be studied specifically in the context of lower middle–income countries.

Use of the pedometer in the evaluation of the effects of rehabilitation treatment on deambulatory autonomy in patients with lower limb arthroplasty during hospital rehabilitation: long-term postoperative outcomes. J Phys Ther Sci 2020; 32:243-250. [PMID: 32184541 PMCID: PMC7064351 DOI: 10.1589/jpts.32.243] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2019] [Accepted: 12/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
[Purpose] To provide data on the applicability of pedometers in the evaluation of the
results of rehabilitative treatment on total daily walking activity after total knee
arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA). [Participants and Methods] One
hundred fifty six hospitalized patients (age 63.9 ± 12.2 years) involved. On the day of
hospitalization and at the end of the rehabilitation treatment the following were
performed: clinical examination, X-ray examination and weight. On the same day the
pedometer was applied and removed after 48 hours. Only on 30 participants, the same
evaluation was carried out 5 days before the hospitalization to measure reliability and
responsiveness. Compliance was measured by a face-to-face interview. Visual analogic scale
(VAS), Barthel Index (BI) and Ambulation Index (AI) were used to better describe the
analyzed sample. [Results] VAS, BI and AI improved by 29.8%, 19.4 and 60.6% respectively.
The data obtained on testing-retesting showed a good reliability and a mean Total Error of
7.3% for steps and 15.8% for distance. A good response in the test-retest was detected.
The deambulatory autonomy of patients passed from 2,070 ± 740 m to 3,100 ± 810 m. Average
improvement in the number of daily steps is 25%. [Conclusion] The data showed a good
applicability of pedometer. The results on responsiveness can be used to better interpret
the results of rehabilitative treatment on total daily walking activity after THA and
TKA.

The Association Between Daily Physical Activity and Pain Among Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis: The Moderating Role of Pain Catastrophizing. PAIN MEDICINE 2020; 20:916-924. [PMID: 30016486 DOI: 10.1093/pm/pny129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The primary objective of this study was to examine the day-to-day association between physical activity and pain intensity among a sample of patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and the potential moderation of this association by negative cognitive processes. METHODS In this micro-longitudinal daily diary study, KOA patients (N = 121) completed questionnaires assessing pain (Brief Pain Inventory) and psychosocial functioning (pain catrophizing scale, WOMAC McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index function, Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System [PROMIS; anxiety and depression], the Godin-Shephard Leisure-Time Physical Activity questionnaire, the six-minute walking test) and were then asked to report their levels of physical activity and pain intensity once per day for a period of seven days using an electronic diary. RESULTS Multilevel modeling analyses indicated that day-to-day increases in physical activity were associated with heightened levels of pain intensity (B = 0.13 SE = 0.03, P < 0.001). In addition, it was revealed that the association between physical activity and pain intensity was moderated by catastrophizing (B = -0.01 SE = 0.002, P < 0.05), with patients scoring higher in catastrophizing showing a relatively stronger link between day-to-day physical activity and increased knee pain. This effect was specific to catastrophizing, as depression and anxiety did not moderate the activity-pain relationship (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that increases in daily physical activity are associated with concurrent increases in KOA patients' levels of knee pain, particularly among patients reporting higher levels of pain catastrophizing. These results may have clinical implications for the design and testing of interventions targeted at reducing catastrophizing and increasing physical activity among patients with chronic osteoarthritis pain.
