Shinonaga A, Tanaka S, Tsuru T, Sato Y, Taguchi M, Takane R. Does self-reported physical activity relate to physical function and walking ability in female patients with hip osteoarthritis? A cross-sectional multicenter study. Physiother Theory Pract 2024:1-10. [PMID: 38602279 DOI: 10.1080/09593985.2024.2334761] [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: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of a high level of physical activity in maintaining physical function in patients with hip osteoarthritis has not been adequately examined. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine whether self-reported physical activity is associated with physical function and walking ability in female patients with hip osteoarthritis. METHODS This was a multicenter cross-sectional study. The dependent variables were the lower-limb range of motion and muscle strength, and walking ability. Self-reported physical activity was assessed according to the guidelines of the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare. Multiple regression models were used to determine whether physical activity was significantly related to the dependent variables after adjusting for confounding factors (age, body mass index, hip pain, comorbidity, and severity of hip osteoarthritis). RESULTS A total of 167 participants were included in the study. Physical activity was associated with muscle strength in hip flexion (affected/unaffected, β = 0.18/β = 0.16), abduction (β = 0.19/β = 0.26), knee extension (β = 0.22/β = 0.26), Timed Up-and-Go test (β = -0.16), and 5-m walking time test (β = -0.15). CONCLUSION In female patients with hip osteoarthritis, greater physical activity was associated with greater lower extremity muscle strength and walking ability.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with dysplastic hip osteo arthritis (DHOA) often have a spinopelvic imbalance, and they are more likely to experience falls. This study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for falls in patients with DHOA, including spinopelvic parameters. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, a total of 103 patients with DHOA were included from 2019 to 2021. Fall risk was evaluated using the Fall Risk Index 5 items version (FRI-5). Demographics, functional outcomes, and spinopelvic parameters were compared between the high-risk group (FRI-5 ≥ 6) and the low-risk group (FRI-5 < 6). Multivariate analysis was performed using factors with significant differences in univariate analysis. RESULTS High-risk and low-risk groups comprised 54 and 49 patients, respectively. Females were significantly more common in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group. The Harris Hip Score was significantly lower in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group (p = 0.02). Pelvic incidence, tilt, and obliquity were significantly higher in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group (p < 0.01). In multivariate analysis, female sex (odds ratio [OR]: 3.76, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.11-12.64, p = 0.03), pelvic obliquity (OR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.09-1.71, p < 0.01), and Harris hip score (OR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.93-0.99, p = 0.02) were identified as risk factors. CONCLUSION Female sex, pelvic obliquity, and low Harris hip score were associated with an increased risk of falls among patients with DHOA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Drug intake might be a modifiable factor for the individual fall-risk of older adults, and anticholinergic properties of drugs need to be considered. This study is aimed at analyzing the association of older adults' individual anticholinergic load with particular focus on use of overactive bladder anticholinergic medications with falls in multi-medicated patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cases of the prospective, observational, multi-center study on adverse drug reactions leading to emergency departments (ADRED study) between 2015 and 2018 in Germany were analyzed comparing the exposure of overactive bladder anticholinergic medications on the chance to present with a fall with patients without exposure. Logistic regression analysis was used adjusting for pre-existing conditions, drug exposure, and the individual anticholinergic burden by drug use. To this end, a combination of seven expert-based anticholinergic rating scales was used. RESULTS The anticholinergic burden was higher in patients with overactive bladder anticholinergic medications (median 2 [1; 3]) compared to not taking drugs of interest. Presenting with a fall was associated with overactive bladder anticholinergic medications (odds ratio (OR) 2.34 [95% confidence interval 1.14-4.82]). The use of fall-risk increasing drugs was likewise associated (OR 2.30 [1.32-4.00]). The anticholinergic burden itself seemed not to be associated with falls (OR 1.01 [0.90-1.12]). CONCLUSIONS Although falls occur multifactorial in older adults and confounding by indication cannot be ruled out, the indication for a drug treatment should be decided with caution when other, non-pharmacological treatment options have been tried.

Comparison between a targeted exercise program and a sham intervention on gluteal muscle activity in people with hip osteoarthritis: Analysis of secondary outcomes from a randomised clinical trial. Gait Posture 2023; 100:33-40. [PMID: 36469965 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2022.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Revised: 10/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND People with hip osteoarthritis (OA) typically display altered gluteus minimus (GMin) and gluteus medius (GMed) activity during gait, in addition to reduced walking speed and stride length. It is unknown if current rehabilitation programs address changes in gluteal muscle activity in people with hip OA. RESEARCH QUESTION Can a targeted gluteal intervention restore normal gluteal muscle segment activity during gait in people with hip OA? METHODS This study presents secondary outcomes from a multi-site, double-blinded clinical trial in which participants with radiologically confirmed mild-moderate hip OA were randomised into a targeted gluteal or sham intervention for 12-weeks following baseline testing. Electromyography (EMG) outcomes were only conducted at a single site and data were collected from 22 participants. Intramuscular electrodes were inserted into two segments of GMin (anterior, posterior) and three segments of GMed (anterior, middle, posterior) to record average amplitude, peak amplitude and time to peak (TTP) during the first 60 % of the gait cycle (stance phase) at baseline and post-intervention. RESULTS Following the targeted gluteal intervention, posterior GMin displayed a decrease in average (P = 0.032, ES=1.04) and peak (P = 0.017, ES=1.17) muscle activity during late stance phase with a shift to an earlier TTP (P = 0.034, ES=1.02). There were no further significant changes between groups for other outcome measures. Similar trends for an earlier TTP were observed for the posterior segment of GMed following the targeted intervention (P = 0.095, ES=0.87). The earlier TTP in the posterior segments of both GMin and GMed post-intervention resembled patterns observed in a healthy young population. SIGNIFICANCE A targeted gluteal intervention can positively impact activity in posterior GMin during gait in people with hip OA when compared to a sham intervention.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Studies have indicated that gait intervention programmes with minimalist shoes are effective for reducing pain, improving functionality and reducing knee joint overload in older women with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Other clinical trials with knee and foot muscle strength training and/or dynamic balance training have also shown clinical and functional effectiveness. Despite promising strategies, there is no evidence of the combination of shoes with gait intervention programmes. Thus, the objective of this randomised clinical trial is to investigate the effects of therapeutic programme of muscular resistance, balance and gait exercises with and without the use of low-cost, flexible shoes on the clinical, functional and biomechanical aspects of older women with medial knee OA. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This randomised controlled trial with blinded evaluators will involve 36 older women. Twenty-four older women with knee OA (medial compartment) will be randomised to the intervention groups with minimalist shoes (GIC; n=12) or in a barefoot condition (GID; n=12), and 12 older women to the control group (n=12). The intervention protocol will consist of knee-foot muscle resistance and static balance training, reactive and proactive dynamic balance training, and gait training with visual feedback. The intervention will have a duration of two consecutive months, twice a week, totalling 16 sessions. The primary outcomes will be walking pain measured by Visual Analogue Scale and questionnaires: Western Ontario McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index and Lequesne Algofunctional. The secondary outcomes will be: 6-min walk test, Falls Risk Awareness Questionnaire, Timed Up and Go Test, and distribution of plantar load during gait and balance by pressure platform. Data will be analysed according to an intention-to-treat approach. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study involves human participants and was approved by the ethics committee of the Universidade Santo Amaro, School Medicine, São Paulo/SP, Brazil (N°4.091.006). Participants gave informed consent to participate in the study before taking part. Investigators will communicate trial results to participants and healthcare professionals through scientific databases, social media, publications and conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER RBR-10j4bw25 in Brazilian Clinical Trial Registry.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a risk factor for falls. To decrease the fall risk, it is important to evaluate the detailed features of the gait of patients with OA. This study aimed to investigate the spatio-temporal parameters of gait in patients with end-stage hip OA, especially foot trajectory. We measured normal speed gait in patients with hip OA and in healthy controls (HCs) using inertial measurement units attached to shanks. The stride lengths in the affected and unaffected sides in the patients with hip OA were shorter than those in the HCs, but the position of maximum foot clearance was not significantly different between the two groups. The patients with hip OA compensated the position of maximum foot clearance to avoid fall risk. The horizontal plane foot trajectory in patients with hip OA suggests that the lateral bending of the trunk during walking, which is frequently seen in them, was a result of the lateral distance at swing down being located significantly more medially on the unaffected side than on the affected side. Herein, a new gait parameter of lateral distance at swing was discovered by a detailed evaluation of three-dimensional foot trajectory of female patients with end-stage hip OA.

Abstract
One in three people aged 65 years or older falls every year. Injuries associated with this event among the older population are a major cause of pain, disability, loss of functional autonomy and institutionalization. This study aimed to assess mobility and fall risk (FR) in community-living older people and to determine reliable and independent measures (health, social, environmental and risk factors) that can predict the mobility loss and FR. In total, 192 participants were included, with a mean age of 77.93 ± 8.38. FR was assessed by EASY-Care (EC) Standard 2010, the Tinetti Test and the Modified Falls Efficacy Scale (MFES). An exploratory analysis was conducted using the divisive non-hierarchical cluster method, aiming to identify a differentiator and homogeneous group of subjects (optimal group of variables) and to verify if that group shows differences in fall risk. Individually, the health, social, environmental and risk factor categories were not found to be an optimal group; they do not predict FR. The most significant predictor variables were a mix of the different categories, namely, the presence of pain, osteoarthritis (OA), and female gender. The finding of a profile that allows health professionals to be able to quickly identify people at FR will enable a reduction in injuries and fractures resulting from falls and, consequently, the associated costs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association between hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA) and falls. Potentially relevant articles that examine the association between hip, knee, radiological, and self-reported OA and falls were retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science up until March of 2020. METHODS The pooled risk ratios (RRs) as well as their related 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Statistic and subgroup analyses were performed. A total of 21 studies involving 146 965 participants were included. RESULTS No association was found between hip OA and falls. The pooled RRs value suggested a higher prevalence of falls in knee OA patients (RR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.20 to 1.51, P < .00001) and self-reported OA (RR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.23 to 1.45, P < .00001) than in non-OA subjects. The pooled RR value suggested no difference between prevalence of falls in radiological OA patients compared to non-OA subjects (RR = 1.82, 95% CI: 0.89 to 3.73, P = .10). Both radiological and self-reported knee OA seem to be positively associated with falls, while no obvious association was found between hip OA and falls. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, knee OA is a risk factor for falls which should be closely monitored.

Abstract
(1) Background: the purpose of the present study was to analyze the associations between arthritis and fall histories in Korean adults. (2) Methods: data from the 2015 and 2017 Korean Community Health Survey were analyzed. In total, 322,962 participants aged ≥40 years were included. The participants were divided into two different groups. First, the participants were divided into the ‘arthritis (osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis) for entire life’ and ‘nonarthritis for entire life (comparison I)’ groups. Subsequently, the participants were divided into the ‘current arthritis’ and ‘noncurrent arthritis (comparison II)’ groups. Afterwards, we analyzed the prevalence odds ratios (pORs) of the fall histories of the participants using a logistic regression analysis with the 95% confidence interval (CI). The variables of income, education level, region of residence, smoking status, alcohol consumption, obesity, subjective health status, stress level, physical activity, and sleep hours were adjusted for as covariates. (3) Results: both the arthritis for entire life and current arthritis groups had higher prevalence rates of falls than the comparison I and comparison II groups, respectively (each p < 0.001). The pORs of falling ≥1 time and ≥2 times per year in the arthritis for the entire life group were 1.42 (95% CI = 1.38–1.46) and 1.69 (95% CI = 1.62–1.76), respectively. The adjusted pORs for falling ≥1 time and ≥2 times per year in the current arthritis group were 1.35 (95% CI = 1.31–1.39) and 1.56 (95% CI = 1.50–1.63), respectively. (4) Conclusions: previous arthritis has a significant impact on the risk of falling.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the clinical value of CC chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) and CC chemokine ligand 3 (CCL3) in osteoarthritis (OA). A prospective analysis was performed on 126 patients with rheumatoid arthritis of the knee (observation group (OG)) who admitted to Qilu hospital from August 2016 to August 2018 and 135 healthy controls (control group (CG)) who underwent physical examinations during the same period. The concentrations of CCL2 and CCL3 in peripheral blood were compared between the two groups, and the predictive value of the two on the occurrence, efficacy and prognosis of recurrence of OA were analyzed. In addition, an OA rat model was established to detect the relative protein levels of CCL2 and CCL3 in rat knee joint tissues. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in baseline data such as age, body mass index (BMI), gender, smoking, drinking, educational level, family medical history and living environment (P > 0.05). CCL2 and CCL3 increased in peripheral blood of patients in the OG (P < 0.05), both of which were positively correlated with rheumatoid factor (RF) (P < 0.001). CCL2 and CCL3 were of good predictive value for the occurrence, efficacy and prognosis of recurrence of OA (P < 0.001). The relative protein levels of CCL2 and CCL3 in bone and joint tissues of OA rats were significantly higher than those of normal rats (P < 0.001). CCL2 and CCL3 are elevated in peripheral blood of OA patients, which have good predictive value for the occurrence, efficacy and prognosis of recurrence of OA, indicating their potential roles as excellent markers for diagnosis and treatment of OA in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Postoperative complications and non-periprosthetic fractures (NPPFs), which was defined as a fracture existing non- periprosthetic implant, after total hip arthroplasty (THA) have a negative effect on the patients' ability to perform activities of daily living. Thus, investigating these incidences of patients after THA will be valuable as it lead to a more strategic physical therapy interventions and advanced research to prevent these problems. The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of postoperative complications related to implants and NPPFs in patients after THA, a more than 10-year follow-up. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study. A total 892 patients with hip osteoarthritis who underwent primary THA were analyzed (age at surgery was 45-79 years; 805 women; the average follow-up period was 12.4-year). The postoperative complications related to implants and NPPFs were calculated using data from their medical records. RESULTS The postoperative complications occurred in 37 patients, and NPPFs occurred in 72 patients, who were significantly older, and hip and knee OA diagnosis, compared to patients without NPPFs ( p <.05). The most common cause of NPPFs was minor trauma. In patients aged ≧ 65 years, significantly more NPPFs occurred during the first year after surgery( p <.05). CONCLUSION More than 10-year after THA, the incidence of NPPFs was higher than that of postoperative complications related to implants. Older patients who had hip and knee OA were a significantly higher risk of developing NPPFs due to falls within the first year after surgery.

Health, Functional and Nutritional Determinants of Falls Experienced in the Previous Year-A Cross-Sectional Study in a Geriatric Ward. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17134768. [PMID: 32630725 PMCID: PMC7369737 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17134768] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2020] [Revised: 06/29/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Falls are a serious health problem in older adults. A limited number of studies assessed their multifactorial nature in geriatric ward patients. The aim of this study is to explore health, functional and nutritional correlates of experiencing fall(s) in the previous year by older inpatients. A cross-sectional study of patients admitted to the department of geriatrics was conducted. A "faller status" was defined based on positive history of falls in the previous 12 months. Health, functional and nutritional factors associated with falls were evaluated, and multivariable logistic regression analysis models were built. A total of 358 patients (median age 82 (IQR 76-86) years, 77.9% women) were recruited, 43.9% of whom reported falls. The "fallers" presented with a significantly higher number of chronic diseases, higher prevalence of Parkinson's disease, peripheral arterial disease, chronic osteoarthritis, more frequently reported urinary incontinence and were dependent on others for daily living activities. They had significantly worse results for the assessment of gait, balance and frailty status. The Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form scores and the mean value of serum albumin were significantly lower in the fallers' group. Parkinson's disease (OR = 2.82, CI-1.07-7.45; p = 0.04) and osteoarthritis (OR = 2.08, CI-1.02-4.23; p = 0.04) were the main variables for the outcome prediction, according to the direct multivariable logistic regression analysis. Our findings suggest that Parkinson's disease and osteoarthritis are the main predictors independently associated with a history of falls in patients admitted to the geriatric ward, although the influence of some factors may be underestimated due to the tendency of not taking the history of falls in very frail, functionally dependent and bedridden individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sport rehabilitation is a reimbursable intervention assisting reintegration and self-help. In this study, we measured the effects of sport rehabilitation on muscle strength around the hip joint at 1 year after surgery, as well as cardiopulmonary endurance performance and stability of stance, in patients who had undergone a first implantation of a total hip endoprosthesis (total hip replacement, THR) as a treatment for osteoarthritis of the hip. METHODS 160 patients were randomly allotted either to an intervention group with intensive sport rehabilitation for the first year or to a control group. At three time points (baseline, six and twelve months after surgery), measurements were made of muscular strength around the hip joint (with isokinetic dynamometry), stability of stance, and endurance performance. The primary endpoint was the change in strength of the hip extensors, abductors, flexors, and adductors at twelve months after surgery. RESULTS With respect to the primary endpoint, the results were not significantly better in patients who had received sport rehabilitation than in those who had not. At one year, the patients in the intervention group had less pain as measured by the WOMAC pain score (p = 0.023), though the size of this effect was small (r = 0.27). Health-related quality of life was higher in the intervention group at six months, albeit with a small effect size (p = 0.036, r = 0.25); this was no longer demonstrable at one year. The other parameters studied displayed no significant changes. CONCLUSION This trial did not demonstrate any significant benefit of sports rehabilitation on functional outcomes in patients who had undergone total hip replacement. Nonetheless, positive trends after the intervention were seen in some parameters. The unexpectedly high dropout rate had been underestimated in the planning phase of the trial; further trials with larger numbers of patients should be performed.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the risk factors for fall in the elderly population residing in rural areas of Korea and provide useful data for their prevention. Methods As part of farmers’ health promotion project, a retrospective study was conducted with a total of 350 elderly people recruited from March 2016 to December 2016. These subjects were divided into two groups: 254 non-fallers and 96 fallers. A person who fell to the floor at least once in the past year was defined as a faller. Participants were asked to visit the hospital once. The demographic characteristics, social environment, and educational levels were surveyed using a questionnaire. Physical examination was performed in the following order: cognitive function, lower leg strength and torque, body composition, and knee image test. Results Statistically significant factors for falls in univariate analysis were female gender, age, living alone, educational level less than middle school, skeletal muscle mass, Mini-Mental State Exam, knee osteoarthritis, hip torque, hip power mean, knee torque, and knee power mean. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify variables most relevant to falls among statistically significant factors in univariate logistic analysis. It was confirmed that female gender and age of 70–79 years were statistically significant factors related to falls. Conclusion Female gender and elderly status (70–79 years) are important risk factors for falls in rural areas underscoring the need for special attention when considering risk factors for falls among the elderly living in rural areas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients who undergo total hip arthroplasty (THA) have an increased risk of falls during the first year postoperatively. However, risk factors for falls after THA remain unclear. We investigated the relationship between gait abnormality and falls during the first year after THA. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study of 286 patients with severe hip osteoarthritis who underwent THA and examined fall history during the first year postoperatively. Baseline characteristics including age, body mass index, number of prescribed medications, comorbidities, and history of falling in the past year were evaluated as covariates and determined using a self-administered questionnaire and interview preoperatively. We assessed functional outcomes, including passive range of motion of the hip joint (flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction), muscle strength (hip abduction and knee extension), gait velocity, and gait abnormality, at 3 weeks postoperatively. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to analyze the relationship between the presence of gait abnormality and falls. RESULTS One hundred sixty-two women were included. The incidence of at least 1 fall during the first year after THA was 31.5%. Cox proportional hazard regression models showed that the presence of gait abnormality (hazard ratio, 2.91; 95% confidence interval, 1.55-5.48; P < .001) was significantly associated with falls during the first year postoperatively. CONCLUSION The presence of gait abnormality is a useful screening tool to predict future falls in women after THA. Clinicians should assess gait abnormality to identify patients who may require fall prevention measures and continuous rehabilitation to improve gait abnormality.
