Objectives: Ultrasound evaluation of the Achilles tendon has been utilised to assess involvement at the entheses in the setting of various inflammatory, metabolic, and mechanical processes. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the differences in ultrasound findings at the Achilles enthesis between inflammatory tendinopathy (IT) versus non-inflammatory tendinopathy (NIT).
Methods: A review of all studies involving ultrasound evaluation of IT or NIT (mechanical or metabolic) affecting the Achilles enthesis was performed by searching the Embase, PubMed and Medline databases from start until October 2020.
Objective: To determine whether intraarticular glucocorticoid (GC) injections are associated with increased knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression compared to hyaluronic acid (HA) injections, which have been reported to delay OA progression and knee replacement.
Methods: We identified participants from 2 large cohort studies, the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) and the Multicenter Osteoarthritis Study. Study visits were performed at regular intervals and included questionnaires about intraarticular GC or HA injection use in the previous 6 months and incident total knee replacement (TKR).
