Osteoarthritis and Bone Disorders

Genetic Influence on OA

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  January 29, 2024

In 59,970 twins aged 35 years or older, Magnusson et al. compared how much genetics contributes to osteoarthritis (OA) with the genetic contribution to other rheumatic/musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs) in the same population, while exploring the role of shared genetics in OA and other RMDs. The researchers used data from the Swedish Twin Registry, in addition to the Swedish National Patient Register. They concluded that the heritability (i.e., the total genetic contribution to a trait) of OA is relatively large compared with other rheumatic musculoskeletal diseases.

No Pain, Much to Gain

Larry Beresford  |  December 4, 2023

SAN DIEGO—Pain is one of the most common symptoms of rheumatic disease, and this session at ACR Convergence 2023 was dedicated to understanding recent research concerning the relationship between pain and inflammation.

When Is Arthroplasty Recommended? New ACR/AAHKS Guideline Offers Considerations for Timing of Elective Hip or Knee Arthroplasty

Ruth Jessen Hickman, MD  |  November 1, 2023

The ACR released a new arthroplasty guideline in an effort to remedy significant & detrimental delays faced by osteoarthritis or osteonecrosis patients who require surgical intervention.

Case Report: Hajdu-Cheney Syndrome

Ibtissam Gad, MD, Firas Askar, MD, Sudhaker Rao, MD, & Ayad Alhatib, MD  |  October 11, 2023

Hajdu-Cheney syndrome (HCS) is a rare connective tissue disease, with fewer than 100 cases reported worldwide.1 Hallmark features include acro-osteolysis (i.e., resorption of the distal phalanges of the hands and feet), osteoporosis, facial dysmorphisms, and craniofacial and dental abnormalities. Patients often have short stature and can have neuroanatomical deformities causing intellectual disabilities. These patients can…

ACR Releases Update to Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis Guideline

Ruth Jessen Hickman, MD  |  October 10, 2023

The ACR recently released an update on the prevention and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis.1 The guideline, which includes information on the new therapies abaloparatide and romosozumab, emphasizes the importance of shared decision making by patients and clinicians, and also gives information on the importance of sequential therapy after stopping certain osteoporotic prevention therapies. Fracture Prevention…

Drinking Raises Risk of Hip Replacement Due to OA

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  August 28, 2023

Marchand et al. sought to examine the relationship between alcohol consumption and hip osteoarthritis (OA) in women. By analyzing data from the Nurses’ Health Study cohort in the U.S., the researchers concluded that an association may be observed between higher alcohol consumption and greater incidence of total hip replacement due to OA.

Is Exercise-Based Physical Therapy Effective for Degenerative Meniscal Tears?

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  March 13, 2023

Research has demonstrated that exercise-based physical therapy is as effective at maintaining knee function as surgery in patients with degenerative meniscal tears at risk of developing knee osteoarthritis.

FDA Approves Abaloparatide to Treat Men with Osteoporosis & a High Risk of Fracture

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  February 15, 2023

In late December, the FDA approved subcutaneous abaloparatide for the treatment of men with osteoporosis at a high risk of fracture. This approval is based on a placebo-controlled study that showed abaloparatide led to significant increases in bone mineral density of the lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck. Abaloparatide was approved in April 2017 for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture.

Zoledronic Acid vs. Oral Bisphosphonates: Osteoporosis Treatments & the Risk of Developing Osteonecrosis of the Jaw

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  December 12, 2022

A study from Amigues et al. found that bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw is rare in patients with osteoporosis and may occur more often in patients treated with injectable zoledronic acid than in those treated with the oral bisphosphonates.

Highlights from the ACR Review Course 2022

Samantha C. Shapiro, MD  |  December 6, 2022

PHILADELPHIA—At ACR Convergence 2022, the much-anticipated ACR Review Course featured talks from eight experts. Topics reflected the heterogeneity of our field and included Sjögren’s disease, spondyloarthritis (SpA), osteoarthritis (OA), paraneoplastic rheumatic syndromes, metabolic bone disease, statin myopathy, Raynaud’s phenomenon and autoinflammatory syndrome. Here, I share highlights from this comprehensive, six-hour session. Sjögren’s Disease Sara S….
