Objective: To perform region-based development of whole-body MRI through validation of knee region scoring systems in spondyloarthritis (SpA).
Methods: Assessment of knee inflammatory pathologies using 2 systems, OMERACT MRI Whole-body score for Inflammation in Peripheral joints and Entheses (MRI-WIPE) and Knee Inflammation MRI Scoring System (KIMRISS), in 4 iterative multi-reader exercises.
Results: In the final exercise, reliability was mostly good for readers with highest agreement in previous exercise. Median pairwise single-measure ICCs for osteitis and synovitis/effusion status/change were 0.71/0.48 (WIPE-osteitis), 0.48/0.77 (WIPE-synovitis/effusion), 0.59/0.91 (KIMRISS-osteitis) and 0.92/0.97 (KIMRISS-synovitis/effusion). SRMs were 0.74 (WIPE-synovitis/effusion) and 0.78 (KIMRISS-synovitis/effusion).
Conclusion: MRI-WIPE and KIMRISS may both be useful in SpA whole-body evaluation studies.

Center for Public Health Innovation (CPHI), Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Udayana, Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia.
Aim: This study evaluates the prevalence, risk factors, and quality of life of patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) in the Indonesian population.
Method: A cross-sectional study of 3597 adults (≥ 18 years old) was conducted in 2023 involving 15 different cities in Indonesia. Knee OA was classified according to the clinical ACR criteria.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) often leads to pain and functional limitations, impacting work and daily life. Physical activity (PA) is an important part of the treatment. Wearable activity trackers (WATs) offer a novel approach to promote PA but could also aid in finding a sustainable PA level over time.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, 601 N Caroline St., Baltimore, MD, 21287, USA.
Background: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a surgical treatment for knee osteoarthritis associated with lower morbidity compared with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with isolated unicompartmental knee arthritis. As disparities have been noted broadly in arthroplasty care, it follows that such disparities might be present in the utilization of UKA relative to TKA. This study therefore examined racial/ethnic, socioeconomic, and payer status differences in utilization of UKA.

Background: The aim of this study was to predict intraoperative graft diameter with our new method by evaluating the cross-sectional areas (CSAs) of the hamstrings in axial sections of MRI.
Methods: This study included 78 patients who underwent single-bundle ACLR between 2022 and 2023. MRIs of the patients were evaulated preoperatively and four CSAs of the hamstring tendons were measured in two different regions by two participants.
Quality of Non-Surgical and Non-Pharmacological Knee Osteoarthritis Care in the Maritimes.
Musculoskeletal Care
March 2025
School of Physiotherapy, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada.
Objectives: To evaluate the quality and types of care individuals with mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis receive in the Canadian Maritime provinces, and determine associations with demographic, social, and patient-reported factors.
Methods: Individuals with knee osteoarthritis were invited to complete a healthcare quality survey based on the British Columbia Osteoarthritis (BC OA) survey. The cross-sectional descriptive observational survey assessed four healthcare quality indicators: advice to exercise, advice to lose weight, assessment of ambulatory function, and assessment of non-ambulatory function.
