The mechanism causing cold pain in humans is unresolved. Animal data suggest a nonredundant contribution to cold pain for transient receptor potential channels TRPM8 and TRPA1 for detection and voltage-gated sodium channels NaV1.7 and NaV1.

- The study aimed to assess how often tenosynovitis and tendon damage occur in patients with hand osteoarthritis (HOA) and how they affect pain and hand function using both clinical exams and ultrasound (US).
- A total of 86 HOA patients and 23 matched control subjects were evaluated, revealing that 69.8% of HOA patients had tendon involvement compared to only 8.7% of controls, with different rates of damage in flexor and extensor tendons.
- Despite finding significant tendon involvement through US, the results showed no correlation between tendon issues and hand function or reported pain levels in HOA patients.
Objectives: Patients with systemic rheumatic diseases (SRDs) are at risk of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Data concerning these critically ill patients are limited to few retrospective studies.
Methods: This is a single-centre retrospective study of patients with SRDs admitted to an ICU at the Vienna General Hospital between 2012 and 2020.
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the predictive value of tenderness in the absence of swelling with consideration of other potential risk factors for subsequent radiographic progression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA).
Methods: Clinical and sonographic (grey scale and power Doppler (PD)) examination of 22 joints of the hand were performed in patients with RA and PsA. The impact of tenderness on progression after 2 years was analysed in non-swollen joints for RA and PsA separately with multilevel mixed logistic regression analysis.
Background/objective(s)/introduction: In clinical practice, treatment goals are often set up without exploring what patients really want. We, therefore, collected individualised treatment goals of patients with osteoarthritis (OA), categorised and mapped them to the World Health Organisation International Classification for Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF).
Patients/materials And Methods: A longitudinal prospective cohort study was conducted (2019-2021).
