Are Medicare Beneficiaries with Knee OA Receiving Enough Conservative Care?

Marilynn Larkin  |  June 22, 2021

NEW YORK (Reuters Health)—Non-surgical care for knee osteoarthritis (OA) is uncommon among older adults, especially in regions of the U.S. where total knee arthroplasty rates are high, a large retrospective analysis shows.1 “As rheumatologists, we often think of knee arthroplasty as the last resort, after patients have tried and failed more conservative treatments, such as…

Arthroscopic Partial Meniscectomy Tied to Radiographic Knee OA

By Lisa Rapaport  |  September 29, 2020

Researchers in Finland randomly assigned 146 adults with degenerative meniscus tear confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to receive either arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM)…

Does Loss of Skeletal Muscle Mass Increase the Risk of Knee OA?

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  January 30, 2019

Obesity is a well-known risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (OA), but data regarding the association of body composition (fat and muscle mass) with the risk of knee OA are lacking. Thus, it is not clear whether the effects of BMI, typically interpreted as effects of obesity, are truly due to excess adiposity rather than to overall loading due to the combined weight of body mass. Misra et al. undertook this study to examine the longitudinal association of body composition categories based on fat and muscle mass with the risk of incident knee OA…
