Good Life with osteoArthritis in Denmark (GLA:D®) is a program for the management of patients with hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA). Adapted for the Canadian population, the GLA:DTM Canada program implements evidence-based strategies to support the prevention, early diagnosis and effective management of hip and knee OA. GLA:D assists local communities in implementing OA strategies across the spectrum of disease severity. An integral part of this program is a national quality and outcomes registry, which includes data concerning participant characteristics and both patient-reported and functional outcomes. This registry helps healthcare providers and healthcare decision makers ensure that individuals with OA receive effective, high-quality care through the GLA:D Canada program.

CIC, Epidémiologie Clinique, INSERM, Nancy University Hospital Center, Nancy, Grand Est, France.
Objective: The objective of this study was to analyse the association between body composition and changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients followed for hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Methods: Longitudinal data from the Knee and Hip OsteoArthritis Long-term Assessments (KHOALA) cohort, a multicentre cohort of 878 patients with symptomatic knee and/or hip OA, were used. The main outcome criteria were changes in patient-reported outcomes measures, the Study Short Form-36 (physical functioning, pain, mental health and vitality) and the OsteoArthritis Knee and Hip Quality Of Life (OAKHQOL)(physical activity, pain and mental health).

Patellar instability following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a rare, yet serious complication, potentially requiring revision surgery or resulting in chronic dysfunction. When encountered, it is paramount to understand the etiologies, diagnostic approaches, treatment options, and outcomes of the selected treatment. The most common cause of patella instability is improper positioning of components, leading to lateral maltracking of the patella.

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) can have more pronounced effects on joint position sense (JPS) accuracy and gait characteristics. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between lower limb JPS and different aspects of gait pattern including gait asymmetry and variability and spatiotemporal coordination in individuals with bilateral KOA. In this cross-sectional study, lower limb JPS of 43 individuals with bilateral KOA (mild and moderate) were measured.
