Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis of the hand can lead to pain, stiffness, and deformation, and thus to functional disability. The purpose of this study was to compare short-term clinical outcomes of 2 silicone proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint implants, NeuFlex and Integra, in patients with primary osteoarthritis. METHODS We included 72 PIP joints, of which 40 were replaced by a NeuFlex implant and 32 by an Integra implant. The average follow-up was 12 months for the Integra group and 16 months for the NeuFlex group. RESULTS There was no change in active flexion preoperatively and postoperatively. Extension lag and Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score decreased substantially in both groups, whereas grip strength and Patient-Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) score increased. All patients were satisfied. Between groups, there was a significant difference in the PSFS score, in favor of the Integra group. CONCLUSIONS Both implants have excellent results, but more research is needed with more patients to prevent bias and to determine the long-term outcome of these implants.

Abstract
Rhizarthrosis (RA), or trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis, is an arthritic degenerative process that affects the first joint of the thumb. The objective of this work is to provide therapists with an overview of the fundamental issues related to the therapeutic management of trapeziometacarpal joint instability. Prevalent in females, especially post-menopause, and linked to age, RA involves ligament and muscle structures, with causes ranging from hormonal influences to mechanical factors. Understanding the biomechanics, stability, and factors contributing to RA is crucial for effective intervention. This study explores the role of ligaments, muscles, and anatomical variants in thumb joint degeneration, emphasizing the importance of stability and congruence. RA manifests as pain at the base of the thumb, limiting grip strength and hindering everyday tasks. Pain initially occurs during specific movements but can progress to constant discomfort, affecting sleep. Chronic RA leads to joint stiffness, deformities like the "Z thumb," and muscle atrophy, impacting daily functions. Clinical evaluation involves pain assessment, joint mobility examination, and palpation. Diagnostic tests like the grind test and lever test aid in confirming RA. Radiographic examination reveals joint space degeneration and osteophytes and helps classify RA stages using the Eaton-Littler classification. Conservative treatment aims to alleviate pain, reduce joint stress, and enhance function. Orthoses help stabilize the joint. Therapeutic exercises, emphasizing muscle strength and dynamic stability, prove beneficial. Manual therapies like neurodynamic, Kaltenborn, Mulligan, and Maitland techniques target pain reduction and improve joint mechanics. The studies on conservative approaches provide evidence that a multimodal intervention consisting of joint mobilization, neural mobilization, and exercise is beneficial in reducing pain in patients with RA. When conservative therapy fails, surgical intervention is indicated.

Abstract
Joint replacement arthroplasty for the treatment of thumb osteoarthritis is gaining popularity as recent studies have demonstrated better pinch and grip strength and faster rehabilitation. Our aim was to identify early complications in modern implant designs using a multicenter study. A total of 381 patients who underwent thumb carpometacarpal replacement surgery in six participating hospitals were enrolled. The complications included were fractures, dislocations, infections, tendon and nerve injuries, and complex regional pain syndrome. Major complications were defined as a failure to implant the prosthesis, revision surgery to remove the implant, and any other need for further surgical intervention. The secondary outcomes were any other complications treated non-surgically and the timing of the complications. Eleven procedures failed, and these patients were treated with trapeziectomies. Twelve other patients required repeat surgical interventions. Minor adverse events occurred in 25.4% of the cases, and transient irritation of the superficial radial nerve and De Quervain tendinopathy were the most prevalent complications. Although this cohort depicted the learning curves of multiple surgeons, our study demonstrated low short-term failure rates. An inability to achieve primary stability of the cup in the trapezium was the leading cause of failure. Dislocations and other major complications with modern implants were very few.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Symptoms of hand osteoarthritis (OA), such as pain, reduced grip strength, loss of range of motion (ROM) and joint stiffness, can lead to impaired hand function and difficulty with daily activities. Rehabilitative interventions with orthoses are commonly in the treatment of hand OA to reduce pain, improve hand strength and ROM, provide support for improved function and help with joint stability. PURPOSE The objectives of this perception-based study were to evaluate the effect of a silicone wrist hand orthoses (SWHO) on pain and daily functioning. STUDY DESIGN This study is a qualitative descriptive study. The patient received outcome (PRO) questions in the study were based on the Patient Rated Wrist and/or Hand Evaluation (PRWHE), a 15-item questionnaire designed to measure wrist pain and disability in activities of daily living. METHODS Patients with OA using a SWHO were asked to complete a questionnaire about the effectiveness of the brace after wearing it for 3 weeks. Primary outcome measure was general daily functioning with and without the use of the SWHO. Secondary outcome measures were change in pain symptoms and limitations for certain activities with and without the aid. RESULTS The results of this large-scale PROM study of 551 patients on the effectiveness of SWHOs in patients with hand OA show an improvement in overall daily functioning of 77% and a 61% reduction in perceived pain. This study adds to the evidence reported by systematic reviews of conservative interventions for hand OA and further quantifies the effects of a tailor made SWHO. This study confirms that wearing a wrist orthosis has a particularly significant impact on the execution of static and repetitive wrist-straining activities. CONCLUSION The study on the effectiveness of a SWHO in patients with hand OA shows that the use of a SWHO contributes to general daily function, reduces pain and increases the breadth of potential daily activities. This study shows that the use of a SWHO appears to offer pain relief and suitable support to the joint.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hand osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent disorder in the general population. Patients with hand OA often report symptoms of pain, stiffness, and functional limitations, which cause clinical burden and impact on quality of daily life. However, the efficacy of current therapies for hand OA is limited. Other therapies with better effects and less adverse events are in urgent need. Acupuncture is well known for analgesia and has been proved effective in treating basal thumb joint arthritis. This study aims to clarify the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for clinical symptomatic improvement of hand OA. METHODS This will be a sham-controlled, randomized, multi-center clinical trial. A total of 340 participants will be recruited and randomly allocated to either traditional acupuncture group or sham acupuncture group. All participants will receive 12 treatment sessions over 4 weeks and 2 follow-up assessments in the following 3 months at week 8 and week 16. The primary outcome will be the proportion of responders at week 5. Secondary outcomes will include visual analog scale, Australian Canadian Osteoarthritis Hand Index, Functional Index for hand OA, the number of symptomatic joints, hand grip strength and pinch strength, global assessment, the World Health Organization Quality of Life abbreviated version and expectations. Safety will be evaluated during the whole process of the trial. All outcomes will be analyzed following the intention-to-treat principle. DISCUSSION This prospective trial will provide high-quality evidence on evaluating the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for hand OA. Results of this trial might contribute in offering a new option to clinical recommendations. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05267093. Registered 23 February 2022.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise therapy, self-management and education are recommended interventions for hand osteoarthritis (OA), but new delivery systems are needed to solve lack of adherence. AIM To determine the effects on hand function and pain related measures of a mobile app-delivered intervention, compared with usual care, in patients with symptomatic hand OA. DESIGN A pragmatic, multicenter, two-group parallel randomized controlled trial. SETTING Community health centers in rural southern Spain. POPULATION Eighty-three participants with unilateral or bilateral symptomatic hand OA were proposed to participate, and finally 74 were included and randomized. METHODS Participants received a home multimodal treatment (exercise, education, and self-management recommendations) with the CareHand mobile app or usual care (written exercises) over 12 weeks. Monthly telephone calls were performed to monitor adherence. The primary outcome was hand physical function (Australian/Canadian Hand Osteoarthritis Index, AUSCAN) at 3- and 6-months. Secondary measures included hand pain intensity and morning stiffness, upper limb function, hand dexterity, and grip and pinch strength. RESULTS The CareHand group showed significant within-group changes in hand function at 6-months (-3.0, 95% CI -5.1 to -0.9 vs. usual care: -0.9, 95% CI -3.3 to 1.5). Neither group showed improvements in hand function at 3-months (CareHand: -1.5, 95% CI -3.1 to 0.1; usual care: -0.5, 95% CI -2.7 to 1.7). For the secondary outcomes, the CareHand group showed better results on upper limb function both at 3- and 6-months, and on pain both at 1- and 3-months compared to usual care group. Linear regression models indicated that baseline scores of pain intensity, hand status, and upper limb function were associated with a greater improvement in hand pain and physical function. CONCLUSIONS A mobile app-delivered intervention is effective for improving hand function, and better than usual care for upper limb function and pain. Further research is warranted to understand the impact of mobile health (mHealth) in people with hand OA. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT mHealth interventions are a feasible and secure multimodal delivery approach in older adults with hand OA in rural primary care setting. Baseline pain and upper limb function might predict functional hand outcomes.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:665. [PMID: 35831847 PMCID: PMC9277790 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-022-05619-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background There is some evidence that corticosteroids may have a beneficial effect in hand osteoarthritis. We examined the efficacy of corticosteroids on symptoms and structural outcomes in hand osteoarthritis. Methods Ovid MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from inception to October 2021 for randomized controlled trials investigating the efficacy of corticosteroids in hand osteoarthritis. Two authors independently screened records, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias using the RoB 2 tool. Standardized mean difference (SMD) or mean difference (MD) was calculated, and random-effects meta-analyses were performed. Results Of 13 included trials, 3 examined oral corticosteroids and clinical outcomes in any hand joints, 9 examined intra-articular injection of corticosteroids and clinical outcomes at the first carpometacarpal joint and one in the interphalangeal joints. In meta-analysis, oral corticosteroids reduced pain (SMD -0.53, 95% CI -0.79 to -0.28) and improved stiffness (MD -5.03, 95% CI -9.91 to -0.15; Australian Canadian Osteoarthritis Hand Index stiffness subscale) and function (SMD -0.37, 95% CI -0.63 to -0.12) at 4-6 weeks. However, there was no significant persistent effect on pain and function at 3 months which was 6-8 weeks after study medication was stopped. There was no significant effect of intra-articular corticosteroids on pain or function at 4-6 weeks or over 3-12 months in first carpometacarpal osteoarthritis. Two trials evaluated joint structure at 4-6 weeks: one study showed oral corticosteroids reduced synovial thickening, neither showed an effect on synovitis. Conclusions There was low-certainty evidence for a medium effect of oral corticosteroids on pain relief and stiffness improvement and small-to-medium effect on functional improvement at 4-6 weeks, with no significant effect for intra-articular corticosteroids. Corticosteroids had no significant effect on any outcomes over longer term (3-12 months) off treatment. No trials examined the effect of corticosteroids on disease progression. The role of corticosteroids in hand osteoarthritis is limited. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12891-022-05619-9.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is associated with an increase in mechanical friction of the joint, which causes irreversible damage to articular cartilage. Consequently, it is crucial to restore joint lubrication for effectively treating osteoarthritis. In the present study, hyaluronic acid (HA)-based zwitterionic nanospheres with phosphocholine groups on the surface were synthesized, which achieved excellent lubrication behavior due to the hydration lubrication mechanism. Specifically, HA was initially thiolated and modified with hexadecylamine based on an amidation reaction, then it was grafted with 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphocholine (MPC) by the thiol-ene click reaction, and finally self-assembled into nanospheres (HA-MPC) by hydrophobic interaction and cross-linking of the thiol group. The lubrication test demonstrated that the HA-MPC nanospheres improved lubrication under shear force, with a 40% reduction in the friction coefficient compared with HA. The in vitro experiment indicated that the HA-MPC nanospheres had excellent biocompatibility, and they upregulated the cartilage anabolic gene and downregulated cartilage catabolic proteases as well as the pain-related gene. The in vivo test showed that the injection of HA-MPC nanospheres to the joint cavity could inhibit the development of osteoarthritis, which was examined based on histological staining and also morphological evaluation. In conclusion, the new self-assembled zwitterionic HA-MPC nanospheres may be intra-articularly injected for the effective treatment of osteoarthritis by restoring joint lubrication.

Abstract
Background Hand osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent joint disorder and a great burden to both patients and society. While electroacupuncture (EA) and topical diclofenac sodium gel (DSG) are both currently used to treat OA, no head-to-head study of EA and topical DSG for hand OA exists. Thus, it remains unknown whether one intervention offers improved outcomes over the other. This study aims to compare the effects of EA and topical DSG in patients with hand OA. Methods A total of 108 participants with hand OA according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria will be recruited and randomly assigned to the EA group or topical DSG group with a 1:1 allocation ratio. Participants in the EA group will receive EA treatment thrice weekly for 4 weeks, followed by a 12-week follow-up. In the topical DSG group, topical DSG at a dose of 2 g over the affected joints per hand will be applied four times per day for 4 weeks. The outcomes will be measured at weeks 4, 8, and 16. The primary outcome will be the change in average overall finger joint pain intensity in the dominant hand from baseline to week 4. All outcome variables will be analyzed on an intention-to-treat principle. All statistical tests will be two-sided. Discussion This study will help determine which of the two treatment protocols, EA or topical DSG, is more effective for the clinical treatment of hand OA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A variety of exercise programs are recognized to be effective for the management of hand osteoarthritis (HOA). It is important to report the essential elements of these exercise programs for clinicians to replicate properly and facilitate their implementation with individuals who suffers from HOA, especially if they are found to be effective programs. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The objective of this article was to assess content reporting using three exercise reporting standardized assessment tools among exercise interventions randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving individuals with HOA. STUDY DESIGN A descriptive study was used. METHODS Two pairs of trained assessors independently identified, selected, and scored the reporting quality of the exercise programs of RCTs on the management of HOA using three standardized assessment tools: the Consensus on Exercise Reporting Template (CERT) checklist, Consensus on Therapeutic Exercise Training (CONTENT) scale, and Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist to review the quality of reporting of 11 RCTs included in a recent Ottawa Panel guideline. RESULTS Based on consensus reached by two different pairs of reviewers and an arbitrator, the mean total scores for the 11 included exercise programs were reported as follows: the mean total score for the CERT, CONTENT, and TIDieR was 10.58/19 ± 4.34, 3.27/9 ± 1.90, and 5.92/12 ± 2.54, respectively. The overall Pearson's Correlation (r) between the methodological quality and intervention reporting was 0.86, 0.71, and 0.54 for moderate-to-high RCTs and 0.47, 0.79, and 0.42 for fair-to-poor methodological quality for the CERT checklist, CONTENT scale, and TIDieR checklist, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The intervention reporting in the management of HOA is poor among low-, moderate-, and high-quality clinical trials. The least reported information was intervention parameters related to behavior change. Improving reporting is recommended to ensure replication of effective exercise programs to enhance quality of life of individuals with HOA.

Trapeziectomy with suture-button suspensionplasty versus ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition: a randomized controlled trial. HAND SURGERY & REHABILITATION 2021; 41:59-64. [PMID: 34728434 DOI: 10.1016/j.hansur.2021.10.315] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2021] [Revised: 09/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to compare the results of patients operated with trapeziectomy and ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition (LRTI) using flexor carpi radialis tendon versus trapeziectomy followed by suspension of the first metacarpal to the second metacarpal using a Mini TightRope® suture button (suture button suspension: SBS). A single-center prospective randomized controlled trial was performed, comparing 37 patients with SBS and 39 with LRTI. All surgeries were performed by the same fellowship-trained hand surgeon. Patients were assessed by an independent observer at 40 months' follow-up. Pre- and postoperative strength, trapezial space ratio (TSR), range of motion, QuickDASH and visual analogue pain score were recorded. Both procedures improved functional parameters of pain, key strength, tip strength and grip strength while maintaining range of motion, without significant differences. In the SBS group, TSR decreased by 17%, compared to 28% in the LRTI group. The mean operative time was shorter in SBS (63 vs 91 minutes; p < 0.0001), as was immobilization time (2 vs 6 weeks; p < 0.0001), and patients resumed normal activity sooner (10 vs 12 week; p = 0.0138) and required less physical therapy (19.3 vs 13.1 weeks; p < 0.0001). We believe that our results are related to the hypothesis suggested by biomechanical studies that revealed better initial load bearing profile and maintenance of trapezial space following serial loading in cadaver models.

Abstract
Objectives
This study aims to compare the efficacy of paraffin bath therapy and fluidotherapy on pain, hand muscle strength, functional status, and quality of life (QoL) in patients with hand osteoarthritis (OA). Patients and methods
This prospective randomized controlled study included 77 patients (8 males, 69 females; mean age: 63.1±10.3 years; range 39 to 88 years) with primary hand OA who applied between July 2017 and March 2018. The patients were randomized into two groups with the sealed envelope method: Paraffin bath therapy (20 min, one session per day, for two weeks) was applied for 36 patients whereas 41 patients received fluidotherapy for the same period. The pain severity of the patients, both at rest and during activities of daily living (ADL) within the last 48 hours was questioned and scored using Visual Analog Scale. Duruöz Hand Index (DHI) was used to evaluate hand functions. Gross grip strength was measured using Jamar dynamometer whereas fine grip strength was measured using pinch meter in three different positions (lateral pinch, tip pinch, and palmar pinch). The 36-Item Short Form (SF-36) was used to analyze the QoL. All measurements were performed before, immediately after, and three months after treatment. Results
Improvement was observed in pain score at rest and during ADL, DHI scores, gross and fine grip strengths, and SF-36 subscores in both groups after treatment. However, no significant difference was observed between the groups. Conclusion Both fluidotherapy and paraffin bath therapy have been found to have positive effects on pain, hand muscle strength, functional status, and QoL in the treatment of hand OA. However, no superiority was observed between the two treatment modalities.

Abstract
Purpose This systematic review and meta-analysis directly compares joint replacement (JR) and trapeziectomy techniques to provide an update as to which surgical intervention is superior for first carpometacarpal (CMC-1) joint osteoarthritis. Methods In August 2020, MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science were searched for eligible studies that compared these two techniques for the treatment of CMC-1 joint osteoarthritis (PROSPERO registration ID: CRD42020189728). Primary outcomes included the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH), QuickDASH (QDASH) and pain visual analogue scale (VAS) scores. Secondary outcomes, such as total complication, dislocation and revision surgery rates, were also measured. Results From 1909 studies identified, 14 studies (1005 patients) were eligible. Our meta-analysis found that post-operative QDASH scores were lower for patients in the JR group (five studies, p = 0.0004). Similarly, significantly better postoperative key pinch strength in favour of JR was noted (three studies, p = 0.001). However, pain (VAS) scores were similar between the two groups (five studies, p = 0.21). Moreover, JR techniques had significantly greater odds of overall complications (12 studies; OR 2.12; 95% CI 1.13–3.96, p = 0.02) and significantly greater odds of revision surgery (9 studies; OR 5.14; 95% CI 2.06–12.81, p = 0.0004). Conclusion Overall, based on very low- to moderate-quality evidence, JR treatments may result in better function with less disability with comparable pain (VAS) scores; however, JR has greater odds of complications and greater odds of requiring revision surgery. More robust RCTs that compare JR and TRAP with standardised outcome measures and long-term follow-up would add to the overall quality of evidence.

Abstract
Visible light-responsive dual-functional biodegradable mesoporous silica nanoparticles with drug delivery and lubrication enhancement were constructed by supramolecular interaction between azobenzene-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (bMSNs-AZO) and β-cyclodextrin-modified poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (CD-PMPC). Visible light could effectively trigger azobenzene isomerization and thus induce drug release after passing through the dermal tissue. Additionally, the hydration layer formed by CD-PMPC on the surface of the nanoparticles played an important role in lubrication enhancement, which was beneficial for the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Purpose: Joint protection has been introduced as a self-management strategy for people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) of the hand. The purpose of this study was to conduct an overview of systematic reviews (SRs) and critically appraise the evidence to establish the current effectiveness of joint protection for people with hand RA and OA. Method: A comprehensive search was conducted of six databases from January 2008 to May 2018. SRs that evaluated the effectiveness of joint protection for people with hand arthritis were eligible for inclusion. The A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews (AMSTAR) 2 checklist was used to assess the methodological quality of each SR. Results: Nine SRs were included: two were rated as high quality, and seven were rated as low quality. Seven of the nine did not take into account risk of bias when interpreting or discussing their findings, six did not assess publication bias, and five did not register their protocol. The high-quality reviews found no clinically important benefit of joint protection for pain, hand function, and grip strength levels. The low-quality reviews reported improvements in function, pain, grip strength, fatigue, depression, self-efficacy, joint protection behaviours, and disease symptoms in people with RA. Conclusions: High-quality evidence from high-quality reviews found a lack of any clinically important benefit of joint protection programmes for pain, hand function, and grip strength outcomes, whereas low-quality evidence from low-quality reviews found improvements in these outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal management of hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is still challenging. AIM To evaluate the effects of glucosamine sulfate (GS) in addition to conventional therapy compared to conventional therapy alone in HOA. METHODS This 6-month retrospective study included 108 patients with concomitant knee and hand OA. Fifty-five patients (GS Group) were treated for six consecutive months with crystalline GS (1500 mg once/day) in addition to conventional therapy for HOA [exercise combined with acetaminophen and/or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)] and 53 patients (Control Group) with the conventional therapy alone. Primary outcomes were the difference between groups in the change of hand pain on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and in the Functional Index for Hand Osteoarthritis (FIHOA) from baseline to 6 months. Secondary outcomes were Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), medical outcomes study 36-item short form (SF-36) and symptomatic drug consumption. RESULTS The patients who received GS presented a significant decrease (p < 0.001) in VAS pain and FIHOA scores compared with the Control Group at 3 and 6 months. Furthermore, GS therapy was associated to a significant improvement of HAQ score and to a significant reduction of acetaminophen and NSAID consumption during the follow-up. No differences in the number of side effects were observed between the groups. DISCUSSION GS could represent a potential successful therapy for HOA and should be tried in large randomized placebo and active controlled trials. CONCLUSIONS The combination of GS with conventional treatment seems to be more effective in improving pain and function than conventional HOA treatment alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhizarthrosis (trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis) is the second most common site of osteoarthritis in the hand affecting 10-30% of adults over the age of 50. Up to four times as many women as men have rhizarthrosis. Clinical symptoms include functional disability of the thumb, pain, joint swelling, and reduced strength. The first carpometacarpal joint is pivotal in the opposition of the thumb and allows a high degree in flexibility to humans. Current therapies focus mainly on surgical strategies, which should be considered in advanced, therapy-resistant stages to relieve pain and improve function. However, conservative treatment methods are urgently required in presurgical stages. The efficacy of conservative treatment options for rhizarthrosis, which are intended to preserve function, joint integrity and to relieve pain, has not been adequately studied. In the clinical study protocol presented here, we investigate the efficacy of multimodal hand therapy versus therapeutic ultrasound versus combination therapy with both hand therapy and therapeutic ultrasound. METHODS This study is a single-center, randomized, controlled, parallel-group pilot trial. One hundred fifty patients with rhizarthrosis and current disease activity will be randomized to one of three conservative interventions over 6 months. Interventions are (1) multimodal hand therapy (2) therapeutic ultrasound, and (3) combination therapy with both hand therapy and ultrasound therapy. The primary outcome measure is the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire score after 6 months. Secondary endpoints are changes in pain, quality of life, disability progression, and changes of hand function. Safety will also be assessed. DISCUSSION Clinical data suggest that multimodal hand therapy may improve functionality and reduce pain in rhizarthrosis. Clinical data regarding therapeutic ultrasound are not available. Clinical evidence is lacking. This study is the first clinical study investigating the effects of multimodal hand therapy in direct comparison to therapeutic ultrasound and to a combination therapy with both hand therapy and ultrasound therapy for rhizarthrosis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis, which is characterized by irreversible destruction of articular cartilage and severe inflammation of joint capsule, may be effectively treated via the synergistic therapy of lubrication restoration and local drug intervention. In this study, zwitterionic polymer-grafted mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs@pSBMA) with the property of enhanced lubrication and sustained drug release were successfully synthesized via photopolymerization of 3-[dimethyl-[2-(2-methylprop-2-enoyloxy) ethyl] azaniumyl] propane-1-sulfonate polymer (pSBMA) on the surface of MSNs. The tribiological test showed that the lubrication performance of MSNs@pSBMA was remarkably improved, with a reduction of 80% in friction coefficient compared with MSNs. It was attributed to hydration lubrication mechanism by which a tenacious hydration layer was formed surrounding the N+(CH2)2(CH3)2 and SO3- headgroups in the pSBMA polyelectrolyte polymer. Additionally, the surface morphology analysis of the tribopairs demonstrated that MSNs@pSBMA were endowed with excellent anti-wear performance. Importantly, the drug release test illustrated that, compared with MSNs, MSNs@pSBMA achieved good sustained drug release behavior. In summary, the MSNs@pSBMA nanoparticles developed herein, as an injectable lubricant with enhanced lubrication and drug delivery, may represent a promising approach for the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
The superlubrication of natural joint has been attributed to hydration lubrication of articular cartilage. Here, inspired by the structure of phosphatidylcholine lipid (a typical cartilage matrix) with the presence of zwitterionic charges, we developed superlubricated nanospheres, namely poly (2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine)-grafted mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs-NH2@PMPC), via photopolymerization. The biomimetic nanospheres could enhance lubrication due to the formation of a tenacious hydration layer surrounding the zwitterionic charges of polymer brushes (PMPC), and achieve local delivery of an anti-inflammatory drug employing the nanocarriers (MSNs). The tribological and drug release tests showed improved lubrication and sustained drug release of the nanospheres. Additionally, the in vitro and in vivo tests revealed that the superlubricated drug-loaded nanospheres inhibited the development of osteoarthritis by up-regulating cartilage anabolic components and down-regulating catabolic proteases and pain-related gene. The nanospheres, with an integrated feature of both enhanced lubrication and sustained drug delivery, can be an efficient intra-articular nanomedicine for the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly prevalent condition, and the hand is the most commonly affected site. Patients with hand OA frequently report symptoms of pain, functional limitations and frustration in undertaking everyday activities. The condition presents clinically with changes to the bone, ligaments, cartilage and synovial tissue, which can be observed using radiography, ultrasonography or MRI. Hand OA is a heterogeneous disorder and is considered to be multifactorial in aetiology. This Review provides an overview of the epidemiology, presentation and burden of hand OA, including an update on hand OA imaging (including the development of novel techniques), disease mechanisms and management. In particular, areas for which new evidence has substantially changed the way we understand, consider and treat hand OA are highlighted. For example, genetic studies, clinical trials and careful prospective imaging studies from the past 5 years are beginning to provide insights into the pathogenesis of hand OA that might uncover new therapeutic targets in the disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the effectiveness of splinting for reducing pain and improving function and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) in people with thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis (CMC OA). DESIGN The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, ISI Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar, 3 trial registries and 4 conference proceedings were systematically searched for randomised and non-randomised controlled trials up to March 17th, 2018. Two reviewers independently applied the inclusion criteria to select potential studies and assess risk of methodologic bias using the Cochrane Collaboration's Risk of Bias Tool. Studies were pooled using the inverse variance method to calculate standardised mean difference (SMD). Sensitivity analyses were conducted and the quality of evidence for each outcome was judged following the Grades of Recommendation Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. RESULTS Twelve studies were retrieved (n = 1353), 4 comparing a splint to control and 8 to another splint. In the medium-term (3-12 months), low quality evidence showed that splints cause a moderate to large reduction in pain (SMD 0.7 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04, 0.35], P < 0.0001) and small to moderate improvement in function (SMD 0.42 [95% CI 0.77, 0.08], P = 0.02). No significant effect was found at short-term or for different types of splints. No studies reported HR-QoL. CONCLUSIONS Splinting demonstrated a moderate to large effect for pain and small to moderate effect for function in the medium-term but not in the short term. Quality of the evidence is low. Major challenges are the lack of diagnostic criteria and of a gold-standard outcome measure for thumb CMC OA.

Abstract
Wrist osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common conditions encountered by hand surgeons with limited efficacy of non-surgical treatments. The purpose of this study is to describe the Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) mixed-microfat biological characteristics of an experimental Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product (ATMP) needed for clinical trial authorization and describe the clinical results obtained from our first three patients 12 months after treatment (NCT03164122). Biological characterization of microfat, PRP and mixture were analysed in vitro according to validated methods. Patients with stage four OA according to the Kellgren Lawrence classification, with failure to conservative treatment and a persistent daily painful condition >40 mm according to the visual analog scale (VAS) were treated. Microfat-PRP ATMP is a product with high platelet purity, conserved viability of stromal vascular fraction cells, chondrogenic differentiation capacity in vitro and high secretion of IL-1Ra anti-inflammatory cytokine. For patients, the only side effect was pain at the adipose tissue harvesting sites. Potential efficacy was observed with a pain decrease of over 50% (per VAS score) and the achievement of minimal clinically important differences for DASH and PRWE functional scores at one year in all three patients. Microfat-PRP ATMP presented a good safety profile after an injection in wrist OA. Efficacy trials are necessary to assess whether this innovative strategy could delay the necessity to perform non-conservative surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Conduct a systematic review of systematic reviews and randomised controlled trials (RCTs) from the past year evaluating rehabilitation for people with osteoarthritis, and provide narrative synthesis of findings focused on core recommended treatments for osteoarthritis (exercise, education, biomechanical interventions, weight loss). DESIGN A comprehensive search strategy was used to search PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane databases (16th May 2017 to 22nd March 2018). Search terms included 'osteoarthritis', 'rehabilitation', 'systematic review', and 'randomised controlled trial'. Inclusion criteria were: (1) RCT, or systematic review of randomised clinical trials (RCTs); (2) human participants with osteoarthritis (any joint); (3) evaluation of rehabilitation intervention; and (4) at least one patient-reported measure. Methodological quality was evaluated using the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR) tool (systematic reviews) and PEDro rating scale (RCTs). Narrative synthesis mapped findings to core recommendations from existing osteoarthritis clinical guidelines. RESULTS From 1994 records, 13 systematic reviews and 36 RCTs were included. 73% of these evaluated knee osteoarthritis (36 studies). The remaining studies evaluated hand osteoarthritis (6 studies), hip, hip/knee and general osteoarthritis (each 2 studies), and neck osteoarthritis (1 study). Exercise was the most common intervention evaluated (31%). Updated recommendations for exercise prescription and preliminary guidance for psychological interventions are provided. CONCLUSION Level 1 and 2 osteoarthritis rehabilitation literature continues to be dominated by knee osteoarthritis studies. Consistent with current clinical guidelines, exercise should be a core treatment for osteoarthritis, but future studies should ensure that exercise programs follow published dose guidelines. There is a clear need for research on rehabilitation for hip, hand, foot/ankle, shoulder and spine osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is the most prevalent chronic joint condition worldwide. The principles of osteoarthritis treatment are to alleviate pain and stiffness as well as maintain function, with current consensus guidelines recommending the use of a combination of conservative measures including physical therapy, analgesia, and surgical interventions such as arthroplasty. In recent years, several pharmacological therapies have emerged as potential alternatives. Although a disease-modifying osteoarthritis drug has yet to be identified, promising results have been reported in recent trials especially with serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, IL-1 antagonists, and antibodies to nerve growth factor. The present review aims to summarize and discuss the latest results of novel treatments for osteoarthritis and potential targets for future research.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the world's leading causes of pain, disability. Symptomatic OA should be suspected in patients with pain in the joints of the fingers, shoulders, hips, knees, or ankles, especially if those patients are older than 40 years. The socioeconomic cost of treating the condition and the burden of the expense is growing with the increasing and aging population. Joint-preserving interventions currently used to manage the condition include joint-protection technique instruction, manual therapy, adaptive equipment provision and instruction, heat modalities, orthoses, strengthening and range-of-motion exercises, adaptive technique instruction, patient education in symptom control techniques, and provision of a home exercise program. Some show potential, but at present, few have a proven ability to arrest or delay disease progression. Recent research regarding central pain mechanisms indicates treating central pain sensitization may be an effective treatment approach. Additional research is required to determine the efficacy of treatment and symptom management of OA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To identify programmes involving therapeutic exercise that are effective for the management of hand osteoarthritis and to provide stakeholders with updated, moderate to high-quality recommendations supporting exercises for hand osteoarthritis. METHODS: A systematic search and adapted selection criteria included comparable trials with exercise programmes for managing hand osteoarthritis. Based on the evaluated evidence, a panel of experts reached consensus through a Delphi approach endorsing the recommendations. A hierarchical alphabetical grading system (A, B, C+, C, C-, D-, D, D+, E, F) was based on clinical importance (≥15%) and statistical significance ( P < 0.05). RESULTS: Ten moderate- to high-quality studies were included. Eight studies with programmes involving therapeutic exercise (e.g. range of motion (ROM) + isotonic + isometric + functional exercise) seemed to be effective. Forty-six positive grade recommendations (i.e. A, B, C+) were obtained during short-term (<12 weeks) trials for pain, stiffness, physical function, grip strength, pinch strength, range of motion, global assessment, pressure pain threshold, fatigue and abductor pollicis longus moment and during long-term (>12 weeks) trials for physical function and pinch strength. CONCLUSION: Despite that many programmes involving exercise with positive recommendations for clinical outcomes are available to healthcare professionals and hand osteoarthritis patients that aid in the management of hand osteoarthritis, there is a need for further research to isolate the specific effect of exercise components.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To gather expert opinion on the conduct of clinical trials that will facilitate regulatory review and approval of appropriate efficacious pharmacological treatments for hand osteoarthritis (OA), an area of high unmet clinical need. METHODS The European Society on Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis and Musculoskeletal diseases (ESCEO) organized a working group under the auspices of the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) and the World Health Organization (WHO). RESULTS This consensus guideline is intended to provide a reference tool for practice, and should allow for better standardization of the conduct of clinical trials in hand OA. Hand OA is a heterogeneous disease affecting different, and often multiple, joints of the thumb and fingers. It was recognized that the various phenotypes and limitations of diagnostic criteria may make the results of hand OA trials difficult to interpret. Nonetheless, practical recommendations for the conduct of clinical trials of both symptom and structure modifying drugs are outlined in this consensus statement, including guidance on study design, execution, and analysis. CONCLUSIONS While the working group acknowledges that the methodology for performing clinical trials in hand OA will evolve as knowledge of the disease increases, it is hoped that this guidance will support the development of new pharmacological treatments targeting hand OA.
