Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken)
May 2020
Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts.
Objective: The present study was undertaken to evaluate changes in knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings over the course of 18 months in subjects with osteoarthritic change and meniscal tear treated with arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) or nonoperatively with physical therapy (PT).
Methods: We used 18-month follow-up data from the Meniscal Tear in Osteoarthritis Research Trial. MRI results were read with reference to the MRI Osteoarthritis Knee Score.

Department of Emergency Medicine, MCP-Hahnemann University of the Health Sciences, and Mercy Catholic Medical Center, Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Objective: To determine whether patients with retained lead shrapnel who present to the ED have elevated whole blood lead levels (BLLs) compared with matched control patients.
Methods: Test subjects were patients with x-ray evidence of retained lead shrapnel who presented to any of three urban EDs, and consented to inclusion in the study. BLLs were obtained from 15 ED patients, and data regarding time since injury and symptoms of plumbism were collected.
